Before the internet, there usually two kinds of wires behind every wall. One was for the electric system and the other were for telephones. Originally, the internet was created to use both of these options. The phone lines were essentially the only way that you could transmit data. Consumer needs have changed dramatically. Communication often happens with satellites and invisible receivers. There is often very little need for telephone lines or former bulky computer networking wiring. For many homes and businesses this creates an eyesore that needs to be removed.

Door Installation

The front door is the centerpiece of your home. For that reason, we might want to change the color, or, add new windows to the door. Of course, when we change our doors we might also look to add more security. For the interior of the home, matters can be quite different. There can be repairs that are needed from normal wear and tear. Instead of repairing a door, often an interior door is simply replaced. There is a common problem with doors that do not swing in the correct direction. Part of having your doors installed means having them swing the direction you prefer. When it comes time to install a new door inside or outside of your Home Center of West Michigan, is here to help.

Door Repair

Most frequently, when we need a door repaired it is usually due to storm or burglary damage. Unfortunately, the damage can be quite extensive. One of the most preventative measures you can take is to install a door made of metal. A security door is a perfect addition to your home security regiment. Other safety embellishments can be made. For example steel bars over the doors and windows.

You may also have a more mundane problem like hardware and handles that are falling apart. It is often common to change doors for home remodeling projects. Of course, there are also problems related to the door frame. For example, a door that sticks and is hard to open.

Disability Related Door Adjustments

If you know a person in a wheelchair, they can tell you all about problems with doors. Often, the problem is that the door is not wide enough to accommodate the wheelchair. It creates a cumbersome situation for the disabled person. Unless you live in an older home, is probably safe to say that your home does not accommodate wheelchair accessibility.

Many wheel chairs are at least 26 inches across. Many doors are, unfortunately, 23 inches across. In order to make your home more inviting for the disabled person in your life, having your doorways widened and having new doors installed as a must. While we're there, we can also help you to install a ramp in the front of your home. There are other features that are needed in the bathroom and in other rooms such as railings. Of course, when it comes to railings you want to make sure that they are installed correctly. Often, disabled persons will put direct, sharp, and sporadic pressure on the rails. You want to know for fact they are installed into the studs of the house.


Of course, this kind of work takes special knowledge in order to have professional service. The Home Center of West Michigan is here to help you with all of your disability related requests. We can help you to fill out any necessary paperwork that is required for the offices of Veteran Affairs or the Social Security Disability Administration. Learn More
