DOORS · WINDOWS · CUTOUTS
Replace an entrance, upgrade drafty or outdated windows, or create a new opening where there is none. Strataline coordinates the product, opening, sealing, trim, drywall and paint so the project looks complete when we leave.
Three complete services
Start with the product, the existing conditions and the finish work needed around it.
Upgrade the entrance with a properly measured and installed exterior-door system, completed with the threshold, hardware, sealing and surrounding trim.
Replace drafty, fogged, damaged or outdated windows using the installation method appropriate for the existing frame and opening.
Create a new opening, enlarge an existing one or convert a window into a door, with the construction and finishing completed on both sides of the wall.
Exterior Doors
Upgrade curb appeal, comfort and daily operation with an exterior-door system measured for the opening and finished as part of the home—not just a door slab set in place.
Replacement Windows
Replace windows affected by drafts, air leakage, failed or fogged insulated glass, difficult operation, damage or an outdated design with a method suited to the opening.
Cutouts & New Openings
Create a new route, change how an existing opening works or make it larger, with the construction and finish transitions coordinated around the new door or window.
Turn a useful window location into direct access to a yard, landing or deck.
Add a new exterior entrance or enlarge an existing door or window opening.
Create a more direct daily route where the property conditions support the work.
Featured project · Aurora
The original window provided a view of the backyard but no direct access. Strataline enlarged the opening, installed a full-height glazed door and completed the transition on both sides of the wall.
Featured project · Thornhill
The new route solved a daily circulation problem. Strataline coordinated the opening and door system with the rooms on both sides, then completed the interior finishing as part of the renovation.
New garage-to-house openings require site-specific review and may involve permit, fire-separation and hardware requirements.

Door & window FAQ
Useful answers about products, replacement methods, opening changes, finish work and the first project review.
Yes. Strataline can coordinate the selected door or window, final measurements, installation and the surrounding finish work. Product choices and allowances are identified in the written proposal so the unit and installation scope remain clear.
A retrofit or insert keeps the suitable existing main frame and much of the surrounding finish. Full-frame replacement removes the complete window frame, allowing more of the opening to be reviewed and the jambs, casing and exterior transitions to be rebuilt as specified.
Potentially. A window-to-door conversion requires review of both sides of the wall, the opening, nearby services, exterior water management, the threshold and the landing or deck. In Aurora, we converted a bedroom window into a glazed door opening directly onto the pool deck.
Yes, when the property and proposed location support it. New, enlarged and relocated openings need a site-specific review because structure, utilities, exterior finishes, drainage and access can change the construction plan.
The condition is photographed and reviewed with you before work outside the written scope proceeds. The next step depends on where the moisture came from, how far the damage extends and what must be corrected before the new unit is installed.
The proposal states what is included. Depending on the project, that may cover jamb extensions, casing, drywall and paint transitions, exterior capping or trim, masonry transitions, sealing, disposal and nearby floor or threshold work.
They may. Like-for-like replacement and new or enlarged openings are different scopes. Municipal review, drawings, engineering or other approvals can apply to opening construction, and garage-to-house entrances can add fire-separation and hardware requirements.
Send a clear interior view, a clear exterior view, one wider photo showing the nearby wall or room and close-ups of any damage or problem areas. Include the property city and a short description of the result you want.
Yes. Interior doors, jambs, casing, baseboard transitions, hardware and paint can be coordinated as part of a room renovation or a multi-opening door and trim package.
