Eight stages, one accountable partner. Custom entrances are expensive to fix after they're built — so the work that matters happens before anything is ordered.
Watch the same oversized arched iron entry system move through every stage of PDA's process — from the first photo through final support. This is not a checklist. It is a story of certainty.
Consultation, project goals, architectural style, lifestyle, budget, and property evaluation. We learn the home before we recommend anything.
A beautiful door that does not belong on the home.
A clear design direction based on the property and the owner's goals.
Door styles, glass, hardware, and finishes — with independent recommendations and visualizations built around your project.
Ordering a design based on a catalog image alone.
A selected entrance concept aligned with the home, opening, priorities, and budget.
Detailed field measurements, opening review, existing-condition assessment, and installation planning. No surprises.
Fabrication errors, opening conflicts, and installation-day surprises.
Verified dimensions and a realistic installation plan.
Code review, permit support, engineering, and coordination with your builder, architect, and the building department.
A door arriving without the documentation, coordination, or installation path the project requires.
An entrance package prepared for the applicable product, project, and jurisdiction.
Manufacturer coordination, production updates, quality review, logistics, and scheduling — managed for you.
Silence, unclear responsibility, and disconnected manufacturer communication.

Interior protection, precision installation, adjustments, hardware setup, inspection, cleanup, and a white-glove presentation.
A premium door being undermined by a rushed or poorly coordinated installation.
A properly aligned, operating, finished entrance prepared for final review.
Quality verification, operation demonstration, maintenance education, and warranty review. Completion done right.
A project being considered finished before the details are reviewed.
A confident handoff with operating guidance, care information, and warranty review.
Warranty, future service, and a relationship — not a transaction. We're here after the install.
The customer being left without a clear point of contact after installation.
Long-term access to the company that coordinated the project.
Text a photo of your opening, or schedule a consultation — you'll reach Paul directly.
