Paradise Valley · Door Installation
Door installation in Paradise Valley by an owner-operated finish carpenter.
Paradise Valley homes tend to be custom, finished to a high standard, and unforgiving of sloppy work around the openings. Retro Fit Installation LLC installs interior, solid-core, and front doors as finish carpentry — tight reveals, aligned hardware, protected finishes, and a clean jobsite from start to finish.
What Gets Installed
Door installation for Paradise Valley homes and remodels.
From a single front door to a whole-house interior package on a remodel, each door is treated as finish work — measured to the opening, set true, and tied cleanly into the surrounding casing and hardware.
Solid-core & single-panel
Heavier solid-core and single-panel slabs are set with proper hinge backing and screw purchase so they hang true and don't sag over time.
Front & exterior doors
Entry and front doors are fit for plumb, even reveals, weather-seal contact, and a latch and deadbolt that engage cleanly.
Prehung & slab conditions
Prehung units are shimmed square in the rough opening; slabs into existing jambs get hinge and bore prep, mortising, and edge easing to fit.
Closet & bypass doors
Bypass, bifold, and closet openings get track layout, guide alignment, and panel adjustment so they run smooth and sit flush.
Casing, jamb & hardware
Jamb detailing, straight casing, hinges, levers, locksets, stops, and pulls installed with tight miters and consistent layout.
Done Right
What a proper door install actually includes.
The difference between a door that was hung and a door that was installed well shows up in the details — the parts you feel every day without naming them.
Even reveal margins
Consistent gaps down the hinge side, latch side, and head so the door reads straight and closes without rubbing.
Plumb, level, square jamb
The jamb is shimmed and fastened plumb and level so the slab holds its position instead of drifting open or swinging shut.
Hinge & strike alignment
Hinges mortised to depth and strikes set so the latch catches on the first try and the door sits flush to the stop.
Protected finishes
Floors, casing, and adjacent surfaces are covered before cutting or fitting, so finished surfaces stay clean through the install.
Smooth swing & latch
The door is cycled and dialed in so it swings freely, holds where you leave it, and latches and locks without force.
Clean casing tie-in
Casing and trim are returned to the jamb with tight joints so the finished opening looks intentional, not patched.
Local to Paradise Valley
Luxury homes where the finish details carry the whole room.
In a finished Paradise Valley custom home, a door is judged on the reveal, the swing, the hardware, and whether a single adjacent surface got marked. Oversized and statement doors have to operate effortlessly and the jobsite has to stay spotless — that’s the standard every install is set up around, and each one is backed by a 2-year workmanship warranty.
Oversized & statement doors
Taller, heavier, and specialty entry and interior doors are set with solid backing and careful fitting so they operate smoothly, hold their position, and keep tight, even reveals despite their weight.
Clean work around finished surfaces
Stone, hardwood, millwork, and finished casing are masked and covered before work starts and the area is left spotless, so the only thing that changes in the room is the door itself.
Owner-operated consistency
Devin performs the work personally, so the same high-expectation standard applies from the first opening to the last — no rotating crews, no handoffs, no drop in detail.
How It Works
A straightforward door installation process.
Every install follows the same order so the opening is right before the door goes in and your finishes stay protected throughout.
1 · Review the opening
The rough opening or existing jamb is measured and checked for square, plumb, and size against the door being installed.
2 · Confirm door & swing
Door type, hardware, hinge side, and swing direction are confirmed so the finished door works the way the room needs.
3 · Protect finishes
Floors, casing, and nearby surfaces are covered before any cutting, mortising, or fitting begins.
4 · Install & adjust
The jamb is set plumb and level, the slab hung, hinges and strikes aligned, and casing and hardware fit for even reveals.
5 · Final operation check
The door is cycled and the swing, latch, lock, and margins are verified before the job is called done.

Retrofit has done various projects in my condo from installing new doors to replacing and custom fitting vanities… their professionalism is unmatched and the job always exceeds expectations. Pricing is fair and they are always transparent.

Devin went above and beyond with the work he did on my front door. He didn’t rush through the job and you could tell he takes pride in his work. I couldn’t believe it was the same door. Highly recommend him!

FAQ
Door installation in Paradise Valley — common questions.
How much does door installation cost in Paradise Valley?
Door installation is quoted after reviewing the opening, the door type, the hardware, and how many doors are involved. A single interior slab is a smaller job than a full interior door package or a front-door installation with casing and hardware. Send photos and the door details through the contact form and Devin follows up with an estimate.
Do you install doors in Paradise Valley custom homes?
Yes. Paradise Valley has many custom homes with larger, heavier, and specialty doors where the finish detail matters. Each door is set as finish carpentry with tight, even reveals, aligned hardware, and clean casing so the opening looks intentional and operates smoothly.
How do you protect finished surfaces during the install?
Floors, casing, and adjacent finished surfaces are covered before any cutting, mortising, or fitting begins, and the work area is kept clean throughout. In a finished home the goal is a door set correctly with no marks left on the surrounding surfaces.
Do you install front and exterior doors in Paradise Valley?
Yes. Front and entry doors are set plumb and level with even reveals, proper weather-seal contact, threshold fit, and a latch and deadbolt that engage cleanly. Both prehung units and slabs into existing jambs are handled.
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
Yes. Retro Fit Installation LLC is a licensed Arizona finish carpenter, AZ ROC R-60 #346885, bonded and insured. Work is owner-performed by Devin Nelson, so the person you talk to is the person doing the install, and every install is backed by a 2-year workmanship warranty.
