Measuring and assessing the opening
Every opening is different. We look at the size and condition of the existing door and frame, the threshold, and the surrounding trim so the quote reflects the actual work rather than a generic estimate.
Exterior Door Installation & Replacement in Winnipeg
Replacing an exterior door is about more than the door itself. Fit, frame condition, hardware and finishing all affect how a new entry door looks, closes and seals through Manitoba seasons. Nimbus installs residential exterior and entry doors and walks you through the scope before any work begins.
Reasons homeowners consider a new entry door
- Door is damaged, warped or no longer closes properly
- Repeated repairs are not solving the problem
- Frame shows rot or significant damage
- Persistent drafts despite new weatherstripping
- Updating the look of the entrance
- Hardware and door are worn beyond practical repair
Residential exterior and entry door installation
Nimbus installs residential exterior and entry doors, fitted and aligned so the door swings, latches and seals properly. We discuss what is included in your quote, such as removal of the old door, hardware and finishing details, so there are no surprises.
Frames, thresholds and finishing
If the existing frame is in good condition, a door may be fitted to it; if not, frame work may need to be part of the job. Thresholds, seals and trim affect both appearance and comfort, and we explain these items when quoting.
- Existing frame condition
- Threshold and sweep fit
- Interior and exterior trim details
Choosing a door
Material, glass, size and configuration all change the product and the installation. Tell us what you have in mind and we can discuss how it affects the scope. Product selection and supply are confirmed with you as part of the quote.
Repair or replace?
Not every problem door needs replacing. Worn hardware, seals or alignment can often be repaired — see our door repair service. Replacement becomes more sensible when the door or frame is badly damaged or worn beyond practical repair. We will give you an honest view of both options.
What we can assess — and limits
Nimbus's door installation service covers residential exterior and entry doors. Structural changes to the wall opening, patio and garage doors, and commercial doors are not part of our current services. If inspection reveals hidden damage, we will discuss it with you before continuing.

Frequently asked questions
Do you supply the door or install one I already bought?
Mention it in your request. Whether we supply the door or install one you have chosen depends on the product and job, and we confirm this with you before quoting.
What details help with an installation quote?
The approximate size of the door, the current door and frame condition, the style you want, and anything unusual about the opening. Mention any photos you have and we will arrange how to receive them.
Will the old door be removed?
Removal of the existing door is normally part of a replacement. What happens to the old door is confirmed in your quote.
Do you install patio or garage doors?
No. Our installation service covers residential exterior and entry doors only.
When is the price and appointment confirmed?
After we review your request and assess the job, we provide a clear quote and confirm an appointment that suits you. Your preferred time in the form is a request, not a booking.
