Question 1

What size is a standard mobile home door?

Accepted Answer

Most manufactured home exterior doors are 32 inches wide by 76 inches tall. Interior doors run 28 inches wide by 74 inches tall. Standard residential doors run 36 by 80. Order that size for a manufactured home opening and you are cutting frames or living with gaps. Not sure which fits your home? Call us and our staff can match the right size to your model and year.

Question 2

How much do mobile home doors cost?

Accepted Answer

The cost varies depending on whether you need a basic hollow-core interior unit or a heavy-duty front combination door featuring a full-view storm panel. Keep in mind that a poorly fitted door that lets water leak into your wall framing can easily cost thousands of dollars in hidden structural rot repairs. Investing in the right specialized manufactured home door costs far less than fixing the damage a wrong unit leaves behind.

Question 3

Why do mobile home doors have gaps at the bottom?

Accepted Answer

Manufactured homes naturally shift slightly with seasonal temperature changes and ground movement. Over time, this movement can cause the door frame to rack out of square, creating a visible gap at the bottom corner. A gap under a mobile home door is usually a clear sign the frame itself needs re-squaring before a replacement door goes in. Installing a brand-new door into an out-of-square opening will simply produce the exact same gap within a single season.

Question 4

Are mobile home interior doors different from exterior doors?

Accepted Answer

Yes, completely. Interior mobile home doors are hollow-core panel units built for lightweight use inside the home. They are significantly thinner than exterior doors and do not feature insulation. Exterior manufactured home doors use rugged steel or aluminum skins with insulated cores and heavy weatherstripping designed specifically for secure outswing use. Using an interior door as an exterior replacement is a serious safety, security, and insulation risk.

Question 5

How thick are mobile home interior doors?

Accepted Answer

Most mobile home interior doors run 1? inches thick. Standard residential interior doors run 1¾ inches thick. That difference matters when replacing hardware like hinges, latch sets, and strike plates. Parts sized for residential doors will not seat correctly in a thinner mobile home door frame. Our door locks, hardware, and parts are sized specifically for manufactured home door thicknesses.

Question 6

Do mobile home doors come pre-hung?

Accepted Answer

Most exterior manufactured home doors come pre-hung with the frame, hinges, and threshold as one unit. This makes replacement faster and more accurate than hanging a door slab separately. Interior doors may come as slab only depending on the model. Check the product listing before ordering if you need the full frame included. If you are unsure which option fits your opening, our staff can help identify the right unit for your home's model and year.

Question 7

Do you sell mobile home door parts and hardware separately?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If your existing door slab and frame are physically sound, replacing the individual hardware components is a highly affordable alternative to a full replacement. We stock a complete selection of specialized locks, handle sets, deadbolts, and latch bolts. Just ensure you verify your door thickness first—hardware sized for standard residential properties will not seat correctly in a 1?-inch mobile home door. Browse door locks, hardware, and parts to find the right fit.
