Trusted Door Installation & Repair in Fort Collins
When your front door sticks in the dead of winter or that sliding patio door won’t glide like it used to, you need more than a quick patch; you need folks who know Fort Collins homes inside and out.

If it’s a door in your home, chances are we can repair it, replace it, or fine-tune it so it works the way it should.
Why Choose Us: Local Know-How, No Shortcuts
When you call us, you’re not just picking a name off a list; you’re working with a crew that’s been in Northern Colorado homes for decades. We know what the high-plains wind can do to a patio slider and how quickly a sun-faded front door can wear down. That’s local know-how you can’t fake.
Every job we take on comes with licensed and insured work, background-checked team members, and craftsmanship we stand behind. We don’t roll out cookie-cutter solutions; we show up with clear options, honest pricing, and the tools to get it right the first time.
It’s the reason so many folks in Fort Collins call us back for their second, third, or even fourth project. Around here, reputation still matters, and we treat yours like we’re working on our own home.
Our Process: Simple, Straightforward, Stress-Free
We know home projects can feel overwhelming—that’s why we keep things clear and predictable. Here’s how it works when you call us about a door in your home:
- Assessment & Options – We come out, take a close look at your door, and talk through what’s going on. Sometimes a quick repair is all it takes; other times a full replacement makes more sense. Either way, you’ll know the why behind our recommendation.
- Up-Front Estimate – No vague promises or shifting numbers. You’ll get a clear breakdown of cost and timeline before we begin.
- Installation or Repair – We treat your home with care, laying down protection for floors and working neatly. From tightening hinges to fitting a brand-new entry door, we do it right the first time.
- Walkthrough & Follow-Up – Before we wrap up, you’ll test the door yourself. If something’s not perfect, we’ll fix it on the spot. And if a question pops up after we leave, we’re just a call away.
Homeowner Tips: Keeping Your Doors in Good Shape
Not every squeak or draft means you need a pro. A little bit of routine care goes a long way in Fort Collins homes:
- Winter Prep – Cold weather can shrink wood and tighten hardware. A quick shot of lubricant on hinges and locks in late fall helps doors open smoothly all winter.
- Spring Adjustments – Humidity can cause doors to swell. Tightening hinge screws or adjusting the latch plate can often stop that mid-season sticking.
- Sun Protection – West-facing wood doors take a beating from Colorado sunshine. A UV-resistant finish every couple of years keeps them from fading or cracking.
- Sliding Door Care – Vacuum debris from the track and wipe the rollers clean. It’s a small job that makes a huge difference in how smoothly your patio doors glide.
Keep an eye out for bigger red flags, like warped frames, cracked panels, or locks that won’t catch. That’s when it’s time to bring us in. Think of these DIY steps as tune-ups, with us as the mechanic when something major crops up.

I was working in Germany when we contracted J. Allen Construction to build our retirement home in Colorado. We selected J. Allen Construction due to their exceptional reputation for quality construction, professional integrity and commitment to maintain schedule. We knew that even though we weren't present to inspect construction, that Jerry Allen would build the house as if it was his own. Over the last 20 years J. Allen Construction has contacted us every year to inspect the house for necessary repairs or upgrades and used his quality construction crew and subs to perform any needed work. We highly recommend J. Allen Construction. Quality, Integrity, and Service are the fundamentals of this company.
