IN THIS GUIDE
Describe the project door by door
Begin with a simple list of the doors you want to replace. Give each opening a name, such as front entrance, patio or garage, and a reference number, then take a photograph from inside and outside where practical. Include a wider view so the team can understand access, steps, flooring and the finishes around the opening.
Record the priorities that matter to you: changing the appearance, improving everyday operation, a wider connection to the patio or planning work around your schedule. A useful brief does not need technical language. It needs a clear picture of the existing home and what you want the finished project to achieve.
Review what happens around the opening
The product selection is one part of the installation proposal. Ask how removal of the existing door, work at the opening, the threshold, installation, finishing and disposal are addressed. Where any items are excluded or remain subject to a site review, have that distinction recorded before deciding.
Also discuss access to the property, parking or delivery arrangements for large panels, furniture near the opening and any building-management requirements. The relevant project team should confirm the documentation and approvals required for your property. This page is a planning guide; the written proposal defines the work agreed for your project.
Agree the schedule and handover
Ask how product availability and the installation schedule fit together. A delivery estimate and a date for work in your home are different commitments, so confirm both. Because an entrance or patio opening is affected during the work, ask how the home will be secured and plan around other trades or time away from home.
At handover, keep the product details, invoice, relevant documents and care information together. Review how the installed doors open, close and lock and who to contact if you have a question. A clear record is useful after the project as well as during it.

Do you cover my location?
Share your city and ZIP code with M&T Design Home. The team will confirm service availability and arrangements for your address.
How long does door installation take?
The schedule depends on the products, number of doors, property and agreed scope. Ask the team for a project-specific schedule.
Can I buy the doors separately?
Browse the online store for product options. Confirm supply, delivery and installation arrangements before placing your order.
Can doors and windows be planned in the same project?
Share the full list of openings with the team. Doors and windows can then be reviewed together for the selection, schedule and written scope.
