- Priced per door
- Labor-only on doors you bought
- Every door latches without a push
In Brooklyn Park's ramblers the interior doors are often original flush doors in narrow jambs, painted many times, with paint built up at the stop so they no longer close. In the 80s and 90s two-stories the doors are hollow-core six-panel units that rub, drift open or need a shoulder to latch.
A lot of owners here buy their own doors to keep the project on budget, and we install them labor-only with no markup on product. Send the door sizes and a photo of each opening before you buy, and we check that the size, handing and jamb width fit, so nothing goes back to the store.
Each door is set the same way: old unit out, rough opening checked, prehung door shimmed at the hinges and strike, a long screw through the top hinge into the framing, casing on both sides and the strike set so the latch catches. Closets get bifold or bypass doors leveled on their tracks. We hang doors in Coon Rapids and Maple Grove too.

Interior Door Installation in Brooklyn Park, MN: questions, answered
Will you install interior doors I bought at Menards or Home Depot?
Yes. We install doors you bought, labor-only, with no markup on product. Send the sizes and a photo of each opening before you buy so we can check size, handing and jamb width.
Why won't my rambler's doors close?
Usually paint built up on the stops and edges over decades, a loose top hinge, or a jamb that has shifted. Sometimes scraping, a long hinge screw and moving the strike fix it. If the door is beat up, a new prehung door is the cleaner fix.
Prehung or slab: which is better for my Brooklyn Park house?
If the jambs are straight and you like the casing, a slab is less work. If the jambs are thick with paint, dented or out of square, which is common in older ramblers, a prehung door gives a cleaner result.
Do I need a permit to replace interior doors in Brooklyn Park?
Replacing doors in existing openings is finish work. Widening an opening changes framing, and most cities require a permit for that; we check with the City of Brooklyn Park building department and pull it when one is needed.
Can you replace closet bifold doors?
Yes. We remove the old doors and track, install the new track and pivots level, hang the doors and adjust them so they fold without rubbing. Bypass doors get a new track and floor guide.
How much does interior door installation cost in Brooklyn Park?
It is priced per door. The number depends on prehung vs. slab, whether you supply the doors, and how many are in the job. Send photos and we reply within one business day, or book a free in-home estimate.
