Holes were cut in the doors for the dead bolt but not into the frame. The trim around the wi die on the doors do not match up and need to be hea caulked. We waited for the doors...we waited 3 weeks for someone to come look at the problem and when he arrived he said I don't know what you want me to do. I put a tape on it the frame hole and lock hole at 44 inches from the top.......doesn't explain why we have to hold the door closed with a rope . Total WASTE of money and forget customer service. Basically give us your money we will give you a subpar product and dare you to question us! No thanks I'll go to Habitat for Humanity and find a better product . Save your.money, time and energy .

We are driven by our customer's needs and always strive to discover new products, systems and technologies that will move us into the future--because the future is really where it's at. woodsmallKimal Lumber opened in 1981 during a recession year, by Al Bavry and Kim Pavkovich (both came from Wickes Lumber). Kim and Al became the partners "KimAl" and the business began with 9 employees. In 1983 a new pre-hung door operation was opened. Since then the company has grown steadily from its inception into 6 separate locations, including an Exterior Window and Door Division, a Design Center/Showroom, an Engineered Wood/Truss Division, and a Sarasota Drive-Thru Lumberyard with hardware store/showroom. In 2018 Kimal was acquired by Gulfeagle Supply Company of Tampa, Florida. We know our customers like to shop where they're made to feel welcome and their materials get to the job on time. This is the value we add to everything we sell. Call first as current COVID-19 measures could alter hours

Sometimes one just tires of excuses. I went to Builder's in March and spoke to Dave about what I…read morewanted. He said that he would have his best guy, Steve, call me to come for measurements for our doors and that it would be cheaper if we just settled up with Steve on the installation cost. There were two doors and one retractable screen. I wanted one of the doors to have a screen, but Steve said that it was not possible. (I later came to find out that it would have been possible if we would have changed the door from one that opened out to one that opened it. Since he had to redo the framing, why it wasn't possible I just don't know.) Steve came, but would not give us an installation price, only saying that he would be fair. Our doors came in, but we could not get Steve out to install them for WEEKS. We paid for the doors on April 11th. Almost two months later, Steve came to install. Because he didn't arrive early in the morning, by the time that he arrived, it was ready to rain. He was able to install one door and a strip between the french doors in the front. My husband didn't like the strip, so he took it off and put on the old one. The old one had the same issue, so my husband told him to put the new one back on. Steve had a helper. The two of them were not even at our home for five hours. They installed one door and the front door strip. The cost was $450. Then it was several weeks before Steve could come out again. I asked Dave if we could get someone else because Steve was too expensive. Dave did not want to send out anyone else. Steve finally came out and installed the door (that I wanted to have a screen). He tried to install the retractable door THAT HE HAD MEASURED FOR and it did not fit. For that he charged us $350, even when I tried to talk to him about the issues with his installation. On more than one occasion, I called Dave to let him know that we still have the retractable door here for him to pick up. He said that he wasn't worried about it, as he could not use it anyway. That was a month and a half ago. The installation cost us more than the doors. In the meantime, Dave at Builder's said that he would issue us a refund for the retractable door. I didn't want to give him our credit card number for the refund because I have had enough. He's been mailing our refund for almost three weeks. We have not received it. The last few times that I have called him, he has been unavailable. The idea of us getting new doors was to be able to have a breeze flow from that side of the house (besides getting new doors). That is why I went to a specialty company. Steve talked my husband out of it by saying that we would have the retractable screen. We still don't have a screen and we still don't have our money. GO ELSEWHERE!
