Report
Midstate Burglar Bars & Ironworks, Inc. measured three doors. As of Dec 1. 2019, today, he will not come back and complete the job. He received half of his money before ordering anything and would not DO ANYTHING else until I paid the remainder of the money in full. I have been calling and texting and he still HAVE NOT came back to complete the job. I have informed him about the cold air entering the house. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. BUT I STILL WANT HIM TO MAKE IT RIGHT. IF YOU SEE HIM BEWARE. GOD SEES EVERYTHING.

They installed my door 3 years ago. When they came, I wasn't at home and they never contacted me for payment. I had to contact them. It is rare to find a company NOT desperate for money that does quality work. My door is still beautiful three years later.
