Exterior Doors Ottawa — What We Carry and Why It Matters
We stock and install three main types of exterior doors:
Steel Exterior Doors
Fibreglass Entry Doors
Wood Front Doors
Front Door Ottawa — Configurations We Install
Beyond the material, the configuration of your front door changes the whole look of your home’s entrance. Here’s what we work with regularly:
- Single Front Doors: The standard configuration for most Ottawa homes, available in a wide range of designs
- Double-Font Doors: Two full door slabs create a wider entrance and make a bigger statement from the street
- Front Doors With Sidelites: Vertical glass panels on one or both sides of the door let more light into the front entry
- Front Doors with Transoms: A fixed glass panel above the door- works well in homes with taller ceilings
- Decorative Glass Inserts: everything from simple clear glass to frosted, etched, or stained options
Every door we install is ordered to your specs. We don’t pull things from a warehouse shelf and hope they fit. We measure your opening, confirm the configuration you want, and order accordingly.

Entry Door Replacement Ottawa — How We Do It
Here’s what actually happens when you book an entry door replacement with us:
- We come to your Ottawa home for a free consultation — take measurements, look at the existing frame, and talk through your options.
- Your door gets ordered to the exact size and configuration you choose. Lead times vary depending on the product, and we’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront.
- On install day, our team removes the old door. If the frame is solid, we keep it — if it’s rotted or out of square, we replace it. We don’t cut corners on this part because a bad frame installation is what causes problems later.
- We fit the new door, hang it level, apply weatherstripping, and make sure it opens, closes, and locks the way it should.
- We clean up and walk you through the installation before we leave. If something’s not right, we fix it before we go.
Most single-door replacements take a few hours. Larger configurations with sidelites or framework take longer. We’ll give you a realistic estimate when we see the job.
How Much Does a Front Door Cost in Ottawa?
The honest answer is that it depends on what you’re getting. The material, size, glass options, hardware, and whether the frame needs work all affect the final number. Rather than give you a range that might not apply to your situation, we’d rather come out, look at your door, and give you an accurate quote.
What we can tell you is that we work with homeowners across a wide range of budgets, and we’re upfront about what you’re getting at each price point. There’s no pressure; if the quote doesn’t work for you, that’s fine. Call 613-226-7611 or fill in the form above, and we’ll get you a number.

Signs Your Exterior Door Needs Replacing
- The door sticks or drags, especially when temperatures change
- You can feel a draft standing near the closed door
- The frame is visibly rotted, warped, or has water damage
- The door panels themselves are cracked, splintered, or dented badly
- Your heating or cooling bills have gone up, and you can’t explain why
- The lock or latch doesn’t work reliably anymore
Any one of these is worth at least a consultation. In most cases, a replacement door is cheaper in the long run than repeated repairs on a door that’s past its useful life. We’ll give you an honest assessment — if repairs make sense, we’ll tell you.
