Where to buy a door around here?

I'm in the market for a new exterior door and just got home from "WindowRama" on Rt. 22 where I felt like I got the wrong salesman. One guy seemed competent and friendly, and the guy I was dealing with acted like it was the first time anyone tried to buy a door from him. Are there any stores out there other than HD and Lowe's that specialize in doors?


When we replaced our wooden back door, we used a metal-core door that looks very like the old door did, but it is more durable. We used Lifetime Aluminum, just off of Route 10, not far from Toys 'R Us. Their phone is 973-887-1900 and they have a comprehensive web page.  Here's the link: http://www.lifetimealuminum.co

Their blurb reads: Lifetime Aluminum is the go-to source for window and door installation service throughout Morris County, NJ. We specialize in vinyl and wood replacement windows and custom pre-finished steel or fiberglass entry doors. Locals consistently depend on Lifetime Aluminum for quality products, excellent value and reliable service. We invite you to visit our local showroom to see all that we have to offer.

We were happy with the product and the service and they had a pretty extensive selection.


I just opened this thread to recommend Lifetime Aluminum. They're the real deal. Small store. Not a chain.


Thanks for suggestions. Looking to get a wood door, so may check out Jaegar Lumber.


Dryer's in Summit. Good prices, lots of choices, no icky sales folk.

haha  cheese 

I can tell you that if you did purchase a door from Lowe's, don't use their contractors for installation.


+1 for Dryers in Summit.
