We have heard NOTHING as of today Nov. 6th. Tired of excuses and apologies. Today I was informed the repair components will not arrive until the 18th of November 2024. > > Business owner information > Laurie S. > > > Oct 22, 2024 > We recently had a new front door, side windows and a bathroom picture window replaced at a cost of $26,000. The window went in just fine. However the door was either mis-measured or a faulty component from the manufacture resulting in the door being basically non useable until the factory ships the parts. > I foolishly wrote the check , which was cashed, before the job was completed. We are less than happy since we are entertaining 15 guests at our home on the 31st of October. Now we will have to have guests enter thru our garage or back door. > We chose this company based on excellent reviews. > Steve & Connie Back **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > Mr. Back, > Regarding the delivery date, there must be a misunderstanding, as a November 3rd timeline was never promised. Our team made every effort to reach out after installation to discuss next steps, and possible temporary remedies, without success. But, when we saw your request in a separate online review asking that we not contact you, we aimed to respect your wishes until a date was obtained from the manufacturer. > > As we discussed last week, the original door was fully inspected upon arrival to our facility, however there was a manufacturer defect inside the door which could not have been detected until well into the installation process. Since the door you ordered is a beautiful custom door, they do take time to rebuild. The mid-November date is what we were given by our supplier. > > The issue with the door is deeply frustrating for everyone involved. Rest assured we’ve been actively working with the manufacturer to address it. Again, we regret that this has caused you this much frustration. We will contact you again once the door arrives in our warehouse. **★★★★★ — Melody Masoud, Nov. 2019** > We have worked with the Door Store and Windows company for many years. We take great pride in giving our customers the highest quality product and only partner with companies that feel the same. We work closely with Don Erickson from the beginning stages of a project through completion. The Door Store and Windows company has many options and Don ensures we find the product that works for each individual project. **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > Melody, thank you for taking the time to share your comments. We are thrilled that you've had such a positive experience — gotta love Don! He's a large asset to our team. Best wishes! **★★★★★ — Arbutus Collins, Jan. 2019** > My husband and I purchased all new Marvin windows for out home. They are not only very energy efficient but have drastically reduced the outside noise. We also got new shutters and a new front door which we love. The team was able to completely redo our patio and make it a functional year round room for us. The windows they installed are beautiful and easy to clean. From the staff to the installers and the products we would highly recommend the Door store for any of your needs. **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > Arbutus, it was such a pleasure to work with the two of you. We're happy to hear that you are enjoying the benefits of your new windows and doors... and especially your new four seasons room! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. **★★★★★ — Jeremy L, Dec. 2018** > We recently had a Marvin door with transom installed in our 107 year old home. I’m amazed at the difference in energy performance, security and aesthetics. I highly recommend the quality and professionalism at The Door Store & Windows. **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > We're thrilled to hear that you are happy with your new door. It is amazing the difference a new door can make in an older home! Thank you again for your confidence in our team. **★★★★★ — Mark Hudson, Dec. 2018** > From the quotation process to the final clean up everything was very professional.

Thank you for this review and putting your home in the hands of our team! **★★★★★ — L B, Dec. 2018** > Very smooth process, everything went exactly as planned. The installation team was swift and respectful. The attention we received from TDS team is unparalleled. Would definitely recommend to our friends and family. **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > We are happy to hear about your experience. Thank you for taking the time to share this review. As always, it was a pleasure working with you as well! **★★★★★ — Steve Grimes, Dec. 2018** > Wonderful and professional job rekeying door > Couldn’t be happier with crew > Crew was very very very very friendly and helpful **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > Steve, we're glad you enjoyed the process from the new door through rekeying the lock. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. **★★★★★ — Jenny Shulhafer, Dec. 2018** > Our new door is beautiful! Everything was so simple during the process. Karen, was amazing with design help and all the installers were professional, had extreme attention to detail and went above and beyond to make our new door look amazing. I would highly recommend the team at the Door Store!! **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > Thanks Jenny for letting us know how your project went. It was a pleasure working with you too. > > Door Store and Windows team **★★★★★ — John Allen, Nov. 2018** > Our old front door and portal was unattractive and drafty. We hesitated to spend the money on a new door and portal, but chose to do so reluctantly. Our new door and portal gets compliments and is weather tight. > The Door Store was easy to work with, reasonably priced and did a super job of installation in the span of one day. We regret waiting so long to approve the project. **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > John thank you for taking the time to share your review and photos. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoy your new door! Please give us a call if we can ever be of assistance on future projects in your home. **★★★★★ — Karen Sullivan Robinson, Dec. 2017** > Our 50 year old home was in need of all new windows. We were referred to Ann at The Door Store and we were pleased with our project from start to finish! She knew exactly the type window and design that would match our home’s Colonial style. She promised that the installation would not harm any of our existing woodwork and paint. The installation of the windows went perfectly and the job was very clean. Her team had done very precise measurements to insure the proper fit. Not only do the windows look beautiful....they insulate the house from weather, dust, and noise. The personalized customer service was top notch! I highly recommend The Door store! **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > We love helping to find the perfect windows and doors for the area's older homes and Ann is a master! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, we couldn't be happier to hear that it was so positive. **★★★★★ — Thomas Cannon, Dec. 2017** > I highly recommend The Door Store and Windows. I work with Steve Minks, who is not only knowledgeable, but loves what he does. > > On a recently completed job, Steve took the time to make sure the Marvin windows match the original windows on the 1937 house. On one of the window locks, Marvin put the wrong finish, and Steve drive out and replaced himself. > > They will go out of their way to help! > > Tom **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > Tom, thank you for taking the time to share your experiences. One of our greatest joys is helping to preserve the architectural honesty of historic and older homes in the Louisville area. We agree that Steve best! Please give us a call if we can ever be of assistance in the future. **★★★★★ — Ellen Gentry, Dec. 2017** > I had three high-efficiency exterior doors installed on my circa 1847 brick house and have been thrilled with the result. The quality and style of the doors is exactly what I wanted, but even more important was the skill of the craftsmen to install those doors. As you might expect, the surrounding brick wasn't the most stable, and a little repair work was needed, but the end result is gorgeous. I admire them every time I come home. **Comment from Door Store and Windows:** > Your doors look amazing. We are thrilled to hear that you are so happy with your doors and experience. Thank you for taking the time to share this review and photos. It was a true pleasure working with you! ## Selected projects - [Bright and Sunny Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bright-and-sunny-remodel-pj-vj~6534007) - Location: Saint Matthews, KY - Photos: 17 - Description: The owners of this beautiful Riverwood home had been planning their first-floor remodel for many years.

Storm panels covered original double-hung windows, but didn’t provide adequate protection from weather.

You might check with @Emily Paprocki! **Q: What is the black bar made out of?** *(in Photo Questions)* The bar room in the picture looks like metal can you tell me what it actually is made with. Thank you A: Sorry, we don't know it's composition. I don't remember anything unusual about it. It's probably wood. **Q: Marvin Gunmetal windows** *(in Photo Questions)* We love the Marvin Gunmetal windows, but are having a hard time finding a paint color code to match (we want to paint our trim the same color). Can you let me know what paint was used on this trim? Thank you! A: We weren't involved in the trim painting and don't know the paint color.

No one has done that many before. (After doing 4 I understand why.) It was fun and a lot of work but I don't know if I would try 4 again. A: Congratulations! All that hard work has paid off. **Q: Windows with Or without Grids** *(in Polls)* I need help with some decisions on my windows. These look out on my nice deck and a beautiful golf course. There are no houses on the opposite side of the golf course. I would also like some suggestions on what window treatment might work best. A: The answer depends on the style of your home and overall look you are trying to achieve. Window grilles are typically seen on more traditional styles of homes like Colonial, Cape Cod and Tudors. Window manufacturers offer many options including colors, materials and grilles inside the glass. Plain glass panel windows generally lean toward a more modern, contemporary style home and offer clean, unobstructed views. With that being said, often homeowners with traditional style homes with expansive views sometimes choose to have grilles on the front windows of their homes, and plain glass panels on the back of the homes. This option offers the best of both worlds. Since you do not have neighbors to the rear of your home, this may be an option to consider. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
