Menards Inc owns a company. The company is known for its excellent quality interior as well as exterior doors. The materials used for constructing these doors include steel, vinyl, fiberglass, and solid wood. Midwest manufacturing is in the door-making business since The company started its business from a truss plant in Eau Claire, WI. With the growth of the company, more production plants and products were added. They manufacture Mastercraft interior and exterior doors and Ultradeck composite decking and fencing, treated lumber, concrete blocks, floor trusses, quartz, and laminate countertops.
The other important factor that separates this company from its competition is the price at which they offer their products. I paid extra money for the metal clad doors. Well they are nothing more than a pine door, covered in sheet metal no thicker than a piece of paper. Trash, garbage, junk. If you install them you better have a loaded gun and a good guard dog. If I lean hard on them, the door will literally splinter like matchsticks.
And the frame? What a pile of garbage! And their service doesn't stand behind their products! Give them a good looking over before taking home, craftsmanship leaves a little to be desired.
They also do not have the flash plate routed out on the door, I had to buy a template and rout this out myself. We special ordered 3 interior doors for our bathroom remodel I thought I was doing my husband a favor by ordering prefinished,prehung, split jams. What a joke. Quality of the finished was pathetic, assembled by a 6 yr old with a staple gun. Installing was a twice the job of a prehung door. I'm in a MasterCraft email nightmare too. I bought double doors.
One had a paint blemish. I wanted them both replaced because the one had a factory defect, and they're a pair! I was right. After all kinds of run around, they would only replace one, and the windows are a inch difference in height.
It looks ridiculous. They told me I could fix it by popping out the plugs and unscrewing the lites to move the windows. I tried it. It didn't work. Still looks ridiculous. I'm so irritated. I bought new doors and paid someone to install so I wouldn't have to worry about it among all the other home projects. It's one thing after another. I just want my doors to look good! I bought them brand new.
This shouldn't be this difficult. I'm so disappointed. Middle picture the light on the left is installed backwards. Screws go to the inside.
Lights appear to be the same size just not located at the same height. Maybe they can be evened out but more than likely and inch off the holes are not cut the same heights. They've cost reduced it so much that quality is pathetic. The particle board jambs and low density fiber frame dont hold together.
And that's the start of a long list of trouble. The market determines what is acceptable. This is true at any of the orange, blue, or green big box stores. You can always spend more for better quality, and each store has up-options for certain products.
No different from buying a laundry basket or tshirt at Wallyworld. Indem Sie weiterhin auf der Website surfen bzw. Mehr erfahren.

Home Decor. It set in my garage for about a month,because I was working on something else. When I got ready to install the door,I cut the banding,and removed the cardboard packing. The door completely fell apart. The jambs are made of pressed sawdust and what I thought was paint is some kind of paper tape crap. I refuse to put this junk in my house. A I purchased a two panel maple door Dec for our bathroom. The quality is just enough to get by.
In the store you would never know it, but once the door was installed the light from the inside of the room shows around the panels. I have never seen a door in my life with this cheap quality. I bought 8 sets of Mastercraft french patio doors for my lake cottage, had a very skilled carpenter install them. We added an overhang above the windows and gutters. All are on the west side of the house facing the lake so prevailing winds and weather are brutal. The doors leak; and those on the second floor were so bad that the ceiling came down in the room below.
Mastercraft finally sent out someone who measured the doors to be sure they were not warped and installed weather-stripping on the bottom. Did not solve the problem.
I also installed astragals, still did not solve the problem. I finally designed a storm cover and had my local canvas expert specializes in boat covers make snap-on covers we use whenever we are not at the house. This solved the problem upstairs but is an extra workload to open and close the house every time we are there. Now 6 years later the frames of sevral of the doors are also starting to rot.
The doors we bought have only a single locking point, another problem, compared to a high quality Andersen french door in my main home which has 3-point locking system and far better weatherstripping and cladding. Bottom line--don't buy the Mastercraft french patio doors! I just purchased a Mastercraft door at Menards. The door is a cheaply made piece of junk. We bought 3 single exterior doors and 1 French door for our cabin. Biggest waste of money! They are horrible to install, they never level out.
Should have seen the rest coming. Then after about a month, the seals came off the bottoms of all but 1 door. Then during the summer I noticed goo coming out from the seals around the windows, yet another sign. Clearly that goo was what held the darn things together because when the weather turned cold, the decorative molding around the windows popped out since moisture was allowed to get inside freeze and expand. Those molding only clip together, so I have found out, how secure is that?!?
Poor poor workmanship! Menards should be embarrassed to sell such poor quality materials. I will be replacing all those doors with something of far superior quality which is sad, the doors look great, very rustic look with our wood siding.
Very disappointing. Just so people know Midwest Manufacturing is owned by Menards they not only hang all the doors but form there own pole barn steel among other things, so don't plan on Midwest Manufacturing to come to the rescue. What are people's experience with interior unfinished doors? Here is their manufacturer headquarters phone number that nobody seems 2 know I replaced three double doors and 1 year later I have seals leaking.
Never use Mastercraft doors again. I just installed a back door on my house, thinking Id save money over the better quality doors local contractors and even Lowes sell, big mistake as a month later I have loose screws and a sagging door. The only thing I trust from them is counter-tops and they still make mistakes It doesnt help when Menards has poorly trained staff, especially the high schoolers and college kids who work nights and weekends who are clueless.
My Mastercraft 6' French Doors leaked into interior. I used silicone caulk around exterior perimeter of each glass pane. No more leaks. MasterCraft 6 panel interior doors pre finished english chestnut.
Door frames are plywood. Top front corner seems to rub door, check gap on hinge side, it can be there, or it can be tight This was 36" wide. The other thing about these doors is that temperature changes in the house and the seasons cause the wood to swell and not fit the door frames.
Winter they work fine, summer they rub. Those doors are breaking around on the glass parts on people! For no reason! Mega dittos! Some years back, Menards bought Mastercraft and it was all downhill from there. Their products are just plain junk. When you have a complaint about your Mastercraft door s falling apart, rusting, leaking seals, parts falling off etc. A sticker on the door also carried the flag and the "Made in the USA" slogan. To save money, he installed the door himself.
Because he lives in a raised ranch-style home, his living room sits at an elevation above the top of the door. Shortly after Kenning had hung the Mastercraft door, his wife was walking down the stairs from the living room and noticed a sticker on top of the door. Dutifully, Kenning got out a ladder and took a look. He peeled off the rectangular "part number" sticker and saw something stamped in blue ink on the door beneath it.
A few days later, he returned to the Menards in Bolingbrook. The more he thought about it, the angrier Kenning became. According to Federal Trade Commission, for a product to carry a "Made in America" label, the product must be "all or virtually all" made in the U.
