Exterior & Front Entry Doors in Burlington and Oakville
Your front door is the first thing people see and the one you use every day. The Door Centre is a family-owned door and window company, founded in Burlington in 1981. We supply and install fiberglass and steel exterior doors for homes in Burlington, Oakville, Milton, Hamilton and the surrounding GTA. Owner Derrick Block and his crew do the measuring, installation and cleanup themselves.
Our showroom is at 4280 Harvester Road, Unit 10, Burlington, about two minutes off the QEW. Come in to open and close real doors, compare glass and colours, and feel the difference between fiberglass and steel before you decide.
Most Burlington homes are a 5- to 15-minute drive from us, and downtown Oakville is about 15 km along the QEW. We also replace entry doors in Milton, Hamilton, Ancaster and Waterdown. Planning windows too? See our local pages for Burlington, Oakville, Milton, Hamilton, Ancaster, and Waterdown.
