Hello, I have a question.
When was your front door installed? The reason I ask is that we are building with a general contractor (GC) and have removed the front door because we want an aluminum door. The GC only offers wooden doors.
We are starting construction on Monday, and our GC said we should order the front door now so it can be installed in about 5 weeks (when the shell construction is finished).
Now that I’ve thought about it, I’m wondering if it really makes sense to install the new door so early? I mean, many tradespeople will still be coming in and out, and apart from the shell, nothing else is completed yet. So my question is whether it’s common to have a front door installed this early. I have also often seen that only the frame for the front door is installed first, and the door itself is temporarily fitted with a construction door panel.
How was it for you?

But you can’t wrap the frame all around—nor the door itself—it still needs to be able to close How did I know you would have something to complain about....
Actually, it is possible, just not the inner frame. But there are rarely if ever any dents there.

Bauexperte25 May 2016 21:49Did I claim that? I would just like to see it; it surely won’t make me any less knowledgeable.
