Creating a new door opening in a concrete or masonry wall is one of the most common structural modification projects in both residential and commercial construction. REDCORE provides professional door opening cutting services throughout Massachusetts, using wall saws and hand saws to cut precisely sized openings in poured concrete walls, concrete block walls, brick walls, and combination assemblies. Our cuts produce straight, square openings with clean edges that accept door frames without excessive shimming or finishing.

Residential door opening projects include cutting basement access doors in foundation walls, creating walkout entries, opening interior concrete walls between rooms, and adding doors in converted garages. Commercial projects include cutting new doorways for tenant build-outs, creating service access doors, modifying traffic flow through buildings, and adding ADA-compliant doorways. Each opening is cut to the exact rough opening dimensions required for the specified door size, including allowances for framing and hardware.

REDCORE coordinates with general contractors and structural engineers on all door opening projects where the wall is load-bearing or structural. We ensure temporary support is in place before cutting, remove the wall section safely, and leave a clean opening ready for the contractor to install headers, framing, and the door unit. Our door opening cutting services are available for standard sizes and custom dimensions throughout the Massachusetts service area.

How It Works

1

Rough Opening Layout

The door opening is laid out on the wall at the specified dimensions, height, and position. Structural support is verified or installed.

2

Wall Cutting

Wall saws or hand saws cut the four sides of the opening. The blade depth is set to the full wall thickness.

3

Section Removal

The cut concrete or masonry section is safely removed from the wall. For heavy sections, rigging equipment controls the piece during removal.

4

Edge Cleanup

Opening edges are cleaned up and verified for square. The opening is ready for framing, header installation, and door unit.
