Fast, Reliable Door Installation Across Irving
A new entry door in Irving typically runs between $1,400 and $4,800 installed, depending on the slab, frame condition, and whether you need impact-rated or decorative glass. Most standard single-door replacements in Irving wrap up in one day once the door arrives. Call (509) 265-6387 to schedule a measured survey, and you’ll have a written price before any work starts.
We work throughout Irving, from the brick ranches in Original Irving to the mid-rise buildings around Las Colinas, and we’ve learned what North Texas heat, ice storms, and clay soil do to a door frame over time. That local knowledge changes how we inspect, what we specify, and what we put in writing before the first tool comes off the truck.
Why Sightline Windows & Doors Is Irving’s Preferred Door Installation Company
Door work in Irving is not the same as door work in Carrollton or Grand Prairie. The city sits on expansive black-clay soil that shrinks hard in summer and heaves back in wet winters. That differential movement shifts door frames out of plumb, which is why we see a predictable surge of “door won’t latch” calls across Irving every August and September. Most companies will adjust the hardware. Sometimes the real fix is shimming the frame, and we measure to find out which one you need.
Sonia Raman leads our Irving-focused teams under the Haven Standard, which has governed every installation Sightline has completed since our founding in 2012. That standard has five clauses: Have it in writing, Arrive on schedule, Verified crews, Evidence on every job, No surprises. Each technician arriving at an Irving home is background-checked, uniformed, and identified by license number before walking up the drive. Every job leaves a documented photo record: the condition we found, the work in progress, and the finished opening.
Irving homeowners tend to research before calling. We’re fine with that. A measured survey produces a document you keep, and the written quote cannot differ from that survey. The final invoice is the same document the quote came from. That’s Haven Clause 1, and it’s the point of the whole brand.
Our Door Installation Services in Irving

Beyond standard slab swaps, we handle the full Door Installation scope for Irving homes, from first-floor entry doors to multi-panel openings in Las Colinas townhomes. The three sub-services that matter most here are entry doors, replacement doors, and French or double doors.
Entry Doors
Irving’s original residential core is packed with 1950s and 1960s brick ranches that still carry their first front door. Aluminum frame, hollow core, single-pane glass, flattened weatherstripping. After sixty years of North Texas heat cycling, most of those doors are thermally spent and out of square. We replace them with modern insulated slabs, often Therma-Tru units selected for dimensional stability and U-factor, and we address the rough opening at the same time because a new door in a rotted jamb is a waste of money.
In Original Irving, we replaced a corroded 1963 aluminum-frame entry door on a brick ranch where the door wouldn’t latch after the summer drought. We shimmed the frame to correct the out-of-plumb jamb, then installed a new Therma-Tru door with a laminated glass interlayer and a Miami-Dade NOA-rated assembly. The homeowner now locks up tight and can cool the entry hall without fighting a heat leak under the door.

Replacement Doors
Replacement door pricing in Irving hinges on what we find when we pull the interior casing. In older homes, that’s often undersized framing, failed flashing, or wiring run through the jamb in ways that no longer meet code. We write allowances into the contract for this, and any surprise is priced and approved in writing before we touch it. You won’t get a change order the day of the install that wasn’t already governed by the paperwork.

French & Double Doors
French doors and double-door assemblies show up constantly in Irving’s 1980s and 1990s builds around Las Colinas and Valley Ranch. Two-door openings are twice as sensitive to frame movement. When black-clay soil shifts one side of the opening even a quarter inch, the inactive leaf stops catching and the active leaf starts dragging. We reset both jambs as a unit, not one side at a time. We also stock CWS and ES Windows products for double-door glazing where sightline matters as much as thermal performance.

Hurricane-Proof Front & Entry Doors
Irving is not a coastal windborne-debris zone, but the February 2021 ice storms showed what sudden thermal shock can do to a steel frame. Homeowners who want more than minimum protection often specify impact-rated assemblies from CGI or ES Windows. We install these on homes throughout Irving, including traditional designs that don’t read as “hurricane product” from the curb. A laminated interlayer and heavy-gauge frame do the work without changing the house’s character.

AfterTrusted Brands We Service in Irving
We carry eight manufacturer lines, specified by what the opening requires, not by what sits in a warehouse. For Irving’s mix of aging ranches and newer Las Colinas construction, we draw on CGI for impact assemblies, CWS for mid-century-modern glazing packages, and ES Windows or Therma-Tru for replacement entry doors where dimensional stability matters. Because we’ve installed over 18,000 windows and doors since 2012, we carry local parts inventory for common seals, thresholds, and hardware, which shortens turnaround for Irving customers.
Common Door Installation Problems We See in Irving Homes

- Doors that stopped latching after summer. Irving’s expansive black-clay soil shrinks during drought and heaves in wet winters. Door frames shift, and suddenly the latch misses the strike plate. We shim the frame rather than endlessly adjusting hardware.
- Flattened builder-grade weatherstripping. In older Irving homes, the original weatherstrip has long since compressed flat. A 1/4-inch gap under the door lets 100°F air and dust infiltrate every afternoon. We find this after removing interior trim, and it’s a $40 fix that changes the room’s comfort.
- Warped steel frames from ice storms. The February 2021 hard freeze warped steel door frames across Irving, causing doors to bind at the top jamb. A door that won’t fully close is a security risk. We straighten or replace the frame, then hang the new slab to the corrected opening.
- Delaminated hollow-core doors in 1950s ranches. Original hollow-core doors at the bottom rail have delaminated in many Irving homes as moisture wicked up from black-clay soil and rotted the frame. The door looks fine until you push on it, and then it flexes like cardboard. We replace both the door and the rotted framing.

A standard single entry door replacement in Irving runs $1,400 to $2,800 for a quality insulated steel or fiberglass slab, installed.

FAQs - Door Installation in Irving

Irving’s expansive black-clay soil shrinks during the summer drought, which shifts door frames out of plumb and causes the latch to miss the strike plate. We see this surge every August and September in Irving, and the fix is usually shimming the frame, not changing the hardware, because the frame has moved, not the lock. Call (509) 265-6387 for a measured inspection and we’ll tell you which one it is.
Yes, exterior door replacements in Irving require a permit, and once that permit is open, it can trigger code upgrades on the rough opening, including wiring that runs through the jamb and flashing that was never done right in the first place. We write those allowances into the contract before work starts, and any surprise is priced and approved in writing before we touch it, so the permit doesn’t become a moving cost.
Yes, and we do it regularly in Irving. Impact-rated assemblies from CGI, ES Windows, or Therma-Tru can be ordered with traditional slab profiles, raised panels, and hardware that matches a 1960s ranch. The impact rating lives in the laminated glass interlayer and heavy-gauge frame, not in the visible styling, so the house keeps its character while the opening gets stronger.
The frame is the question, not the slab. If your door binds at the top jamb after an ice storm, or the bottom rail has delaminated from moisture, the frame is compromised. A measured survey will include plumb readings on both jambs and a moisture check on the rough opening. If the numbers show movement beyond shimming range, we write a full frame replacement into the quote. Call (509) 265-6387 to schedule that survey.
A storm door adds a second, outer layer to the existing door, protecting it from direct ice and wind and adding some insulating value. A full replacement door swaps the entire slab and often the frame to meet code and weather-resistance standards. For Irving homes with a failing original door, storm doors don’t fix the collapsed weatherstripping or the rotted jamb. If the frame is sound, a storm door runs $450 to $1,100; a full replacement starts around $1,400.
