We replace front and side entry doors in Orland Park with ProVia doors, each one built to the opening. More than 2,800 customers have had doors installed by us.
Most of Orland Park was built between the 1970s and the 2000s. The older neighborhoods are full of brick ranches, raised ranches and split-levels, and the south and west sides have larger two-story homes from the 1990s onward.
The homes we work on in Orland Park
What a house needs depends mostly on when and how it was built. Here is what we find in Orland Park and how we handle it.
In the brick ranches, raised ranches and split-levels from the 1970s and 1980s, expect a wood or early steel door with one or two sidelights and a worn-out threshold. The frame and sill are often rotted where water sat against them. We replace the entire unit, frame included, so the new door seals against new jambs instead of a twisted old frame.
On the south and west sides, in the two-story homes from the 1990s and 2000s, the builder door is a thin steel or basic fiberglass unit with fogged sidelight glass, a faded finish and weatherstripping that has gone flat. Many are tall 8-foot doors with a transom above. ProVia makes those sizes, and upgrading the entry is the single most visible change you can make to a house of this age.
On the larger custom-home lots, entries are a feature: double doors, 8-foot heights, arched transoms, wide sidelights. These are fully custom orders. We measure the complete opening, including the arch radius where there is one, and help you choose glass, finish and hardware that suit the scale of the house.
Orland Park's brick homes have windows set into masonry openings. The size cannot change without cutting brick, so we measure each opening in three places and order to fit.
Signs your entry door is due
- Daylight or a draft around the edges. The weatherstripping is flat or the frame has moved.
- A door that sticks in summer and rattles in winter. Wood slabs and frames swell and shrink until they no longer fit.
- Rust along the bottom of a steel door or soft wood at the bottom of the frame. Water is sitting at the sill.
- Fogged glass in the door or sidelights. The insulated glass seal has failed.
- A lock or deadbolt that needs a shove to line up. That is a security issue, not just an irritation.
An entry door is used several thousand times a year. When it stops sealing, you pay for it on every heating bill.
What we install
- ProVia fiberglass. Embarq and Signet doors with realistic wood grain or a smooth painted finish. Fiberglass will not rust, dent or rot, and it insulates well.
- ProVia steel. Legacy 20-gauge steel doors, heavier than a typical builder door, for a strong painted entry at a lower price.
- Sidelights and transoms. Decorative, privacy and clear glass, sized to your opening.
- Hardware and finishes. Handle sets, multi-point locks, factory stain and paint colors.
Every door comes as a complete system: slab, frame, sill, weatherstripping and hinges built together, so it seals the way it was designed to. Compare materials in fiberglass vs steel doors or read our ProVia review.
How a entry doors job runs
- Consultation. We measure the full opening, check the sill and framing for rot and go through door styles, glass and hardware with you.
- Order. The door is built and finished at the factory to your measurements, which typically takes several weeks.
- Installation. Most entries are installed in a day. The old frame comes out, the opening is flashed and insulated, and the new unit is set plumb and trimmed inside and out.
- Adjustment and walkthrough. We set the latch and sweep, show you the lock and finish care, and remove the old door.
What drives the price
Door material, size, the number of sidelights or a transom, the glass you choose, the finish and the hardware. Custom heights and double doors cost more than a single standard door. Your estimate is written, itemized and good for 30 days, and 0% financing is available on approved credit. For real numbers, see our entry doors cost guide.

Permits and scheduling in Orland Park
Permit rules are set by the Village of Orland Park, and they differ from town to town. We check what your project needs before we order, pull the permit when one is required and build the inspection into the schedule. If your home is in a designated historic district, exterior changes may also need design review, and we can provide the product details the reviewers ask for.
Entry doors are installed all year. The opening is only exposed for a short time, so winter installs are routine.
