AfterTrusted Door Replacement Nationwide
Door replacement typically costs between $450 and $2,900 depending on the door type, frame condition, and whether you’re swapping an interior slab or an exterior entry system. At Juniper Windows & Doors, we’ve handled thousands of Los Angeles Door Replacement projects since 2001, and every job starts the same way: a written price before any work begins, backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise. That means if something isn’t right, we make it right, parts and labor, for a full year after installation. Our background-checked, uniformed technicians arrive when we say they will, with a live arrival time you can track from your phone. Need a real answer? Call (682) 281-2168 and a live person picks up, 24/7.
We don’t do vague estimates or door-to-door pricing games. We quote a number, you approve it, we install. If you’re comparing options, the sections below cover exactly what goes into a door replacement, what it costs, and when you can wait versus when you should call today. And if you’re replacing a window or sliding glass panel alongside the door, our home services page covers the full range of what we do.
Door Frame Repair
Door Frame Repair is the process of restoring or rebuilding the structural frame surrounding a door when it’s been damaged by water, impact, rot, or repeated slamming. Juniper Windows & Doors performs door frame repair as a standalone service or as part of a full replacement, and most frame-only repairs fall between $180 and $650 depending on how much of the jamb, threshold, and trim need work. A frame that’s soft, split, or pulling away from the wall is more than cosmetic, it’s a security and insulation problem.
What We Repair
We repair split jambs, rotted thresholds, loose brickmold, and frames that have shifted out of square. Our technicians remove the damaged section, rebuild it with pressure-treated or composite material where moisture is present, and re-hang the door so it closes with a clean, even gap.
When Repair Beats Replacement
If the door slab itself is solid and the hinges still hold, repairing the frame usually costs a fraction of a full swap. We’ll tell you straight: when a frame is rotted through in multiple spots, patching it is throwing money away, and we’ll quote DIY vs Professional Door Replacement: What’s Safe to Do Yourself instead.
Interior Door Replacement
Interior Door Replacement means removing an existing interior door slab and installing a new one, either hung on the existing frame or paired with a new pre-hung unit. Juniper Windows & Doors typically replaces interior doors for $150 to $700 per door, with the final number driven by door style, material, and whether the frame needs to come out. Common reasons to replace include cracked panels, doors that no longer latch, water swelling, or a style refresh across a hallway.
Slab Swaps
When your existing frame is square and solid, we can swap just the slab in under an hour per door. We mortise the hinges, bore the knob and latch, and match the reveal so the new door sits perfectly in the old opening.
Pre-Hung Interior Doors
For older homes with settled or out-of-square openings, a pre-hung door with its own frame is the better fix. We shim and level the new unit, insulate behind the casing, and trim it out clean. The job takes longer, but the door will operate smoothly for decades.
Interior Door Installation
Interior Door Installation is the full-scope service of furnishing and installing a new interior door, including frame, hinges, handle, and trim when needed. At Juniper Windows & Doors, a complete interior door installation runs $250 to $900 per opening, depending on whether it’s a slab or pre-hung unit and the complexity of the trim work. We install solid-core, hollow-core, barn, bifold, pocket, and French interior doors.
Solid-Core and Sound Control
Homeowners replacing bedroom or office doors often step up to solid-core construction for better sound isolation. We stock and order solid-core options in standard heights and widths, and we’ll tell you honestly whether your existing frame can carry the extra weight or needs reinforcement.
Hardware and Trim Scope
Every interior door installation quote includes hinges, latch, and handle installation in the price, plus casing and trim if you’re going pre-hung. No surprise add-ons at the door. We write the number down, you approve it, and that’s the number on the final invoice.
Door Installers
Door Installers are the technicians who measure, prep, hang, and finish a door so it swings true, seals tight, and locks securely. Juniper Windows & Doors employs background-checked, uniformed door installers who handle everything from a single interior slab to a full exterior entry system. Our door installation labor runs $120 to $500 per door depending on scope, not including materials, and every job includes the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing.
Who Shows Up at Your Door
You’ll get a live arrival time before we come, and the person at your door is a Juniper technician with a name badge and a clean uniform. We send before-and-after photos of every job, and our installers walk you through what was done before they leave.
Training and Accountability
Our installers are trained across the product lines we carry, including CWS, Mr-Glass, and Therma-Tru, so you’re getting someone who knows the hardware and how it should perform. If a repair fails within the first year, we come back free, no charge, no argument.
Door Contractors
Door Contractors are the licensed professionals who manage the full scope of a door project, from measuring and material selection to installation and warranty follow-through. Juniper Windows & Doors acts as your door contractor from first call to final walkthrough, with Door Replacement - Huntington Park project pricing between $450 and $2,900 depending on whether you need one replacement door or a whole-home update. We’re not general remodelers, doors and windows are what we do.
What a Good Door Contractor Covers
A proper door contractor handles measurements, material ordering, structural assessment of the frame, installation, sealing, trim, and disposal of the old door. We put that full scope in writing, so you’re never left with a half-finished opening or a surprise lumber charge.
Comparing Contractors and Estimates
Comparing door contractors is hard when everyone quotes differently. We’d rather hand you a written, line-item price and let the work speak. If another quote changes after the walkthrough, that’s the exact thing we’re built to avoid. Our number is our number.
Brands We Service
We service and install doors and windows from eight product lines: PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux. Therma-Tru is a staple in our door replacement work. We know their fiberglass entry systems inside and out, and we handle hinge adjustments, weatherstripping, and threshold work the way the factory specs call for.
For impact-rated and coastal-rated openings, we work with CWS and ES Windows product lines. CWS doors are built for severe weather, and our installers understand the anchoring and sealing requirements those systems demand. Whether you have CWS, Mr-Glass, or any other make already installed, we can repair, adjust, or replace it, and we’ll tell you honestly if a door is worth saving.
Signs You Need a Pro Right Now
- A door that won’t latch or stay closed: The strike plate and latch aren’t aligned, which usually means the frame has shifted or the hinges have sagged. A door that pops open on its own is a security and energy problem, not a minor annoyance.
- Visible daylight around the door edges: If you can see light through the gaps, air and water can get through too. Weatherstripping might buy time, but a warped slab or settled frame usually needs real repair or replacement.
- Soft spots or rot in the frame or threshold: Press a screwdriver into the wood near the bottom. If it sinks, the frame is compromised and won’t hold screws or seal properly. This is a moisture issue that gets worse every season.
- Dragging, scraping, or sticking when you open or close: A door that rubs the floor or sticks in the jamb is telling you the frame has shifted or hinges are failing. Forcing it makes the damage worse, and eventually the door can crack or split.
- Condensation or fogging between glass panes: On doors with glass inserts, a failed seal means the insulated glass unit is dead. The door isn’t insulating anymore, and the only real fix is replacing the glass or the door itself.

How Much Does Door Replacement Cost?
A typical interior door replacement runs $150 to $700 per door, while a full exterior entry door replacement lands between $800 and $2,900. Door frame repair alone usually costs $180 to $650, and labor-only installation work falls between $120 and $500 per door. Those numbers cover the most common scenarios we see, a standard sized slab swap, a pre-hung interior unit, or a basic exterior steel or fiberglass door. Custom sizes, impact-rated glass, and full frame rebuilds push toward the upper end, and we’ll tell you exactly why in the quote.
The biggest drivers of door replacement cost are material, frame condition, and hardware. A solid-core interior door costs more than a hollow slab, and a fiberglass exterior door with a glass insert costs more than a plain steel unit. If the frame is rotted or out of square, the extra labor and materials to rebuild it are typically the difference between a $500 job and a $1,500 job. To avoid overpaying, get a written line-item quote and keep it. We give you one as standard practice. A free estimate from Juniper includes measurements, frame assessment, and a written price, so there’s no guesswork and no surprise at the door.
