Are your exterior doors looking worn, drafty, or outdated? Does your front door fail to make the impression you want? If so, turn to Adkins & Sons. Since 1979, our family-run home remodeling company has provided residents of Birmingham with exceptional door installation services, premium materials from leading manufacturers, and transparent communication. We have the expertise to enhance your home’s curb appeal, security, and energy efficiency.
A door is chosen twice: once for where it goes and once for what it is made of. Start here, with the opening. Every one of these is custom built to your actual rough opening and backed by the same 15-year labor warranty.
Three materials, one crew. Every door is measured, installed, and warrantied the same way; the choice comes down to the look you want, the security you want, and how much upkeep you are willing to sign up for.

We do not publish a price for windows, doors, or siding, because an honest one does not exist before someone has stood in your house. Cost tracks the size of the openings, the materials you pick, and what the crew finds once the old units come out. What we promise is the full number in writing at the estimate, before anything is ordered, with no pressure to sign that day.
Flexible financing is available if you want it. You can also walk our 4,000 sq. ft. showroom in Southgate and operate full-size windows and doors yourself before you commit to anything.

Josh Ray is one of our remodeling consultants and covers Birmingham and the rest of our northern service area. Ask for Josh by name: Josh comes out for the free in-home estimate, measures the openings, walks you through the material options, and hands you the full price in writing before anything is ordered. If a question comes up mid-job, Josh is the person to call, and the phone rings in our Southgate office rather than a national call center.
When the company that sold you the job is not the company that installed it, a warranty call two years later turns into a search for whoever did the work. We do not work that way in Birmingham. Our own employees do the installation, never subcontractors, and the 15-year labor warranty comes from us, so there is one company to call.

15
Years Warranty
Every installation is backed by our industry-leading 15-year labor warranty, on top of the manufacturer's coverage on the door itself. If the workmanship ever needs attention, one call and we make it right, at no cost to you.
Most door companies stand behind their installation for only a year or two. Once that coverage runs out, drafts, leaks, and seal failures become the homeowner's problem to fix.

Questions
Questions We Get from Birmingham Homeowners

Can I get a tax credit for a new exterior door?
Yes. This opportunity is available through December 31, 2025. Our team can help you select qualifying doors that meet the required U-Factor ratings for maximum savings.
What should I expect during the installation process with Adkins & Sons?
We start with a talk, give an exact cost, and make a schedule based on your availability. The installation involves removing the existing door, fitting the new unit precisely, and adjusting it for optimal performance. Our team takes care of the clean-up and reviews the completed work with you.
How much does a new door installation cost?
The cost depends on the type of door, size, materials, and selected hardware. For example, installing solid wood or custom glass doors typically costs more than a standard fiberglass entry. We provide detailed, upfront estimates so you know exactly what to expect before the project begins.
