Your entry doors serve more than one function in your home; they add curb appeal, security, energy efficiency, and increase resale value.
Steel doors provide strength and security while fiberglass doors closely mimic the grain pattern of authentic wood to provide style options with more grain definition than their counterparts. Both styles come in numerous sizes, textures, glass thicknesses and color choices for complete customization.
Curb Appeal
Your entry door is the first thing that visitors see, making it a critical factor in creating curb appeal for your home. With multiple styles of glass options, handles, and locks available to choose from, finding one that perfectly complements your decor shouldn’t be hard.
Doors also convey strength and protection. High-grade fiberglass and steel entry doors offer long-term performance with minimal maintenance costs incurred from harsh weather conditions, without warping, cracking or rusting over time – not susceptible to insect damage either! Plus they’re highly energy efficient as air stays inside rather than being wasted away through gaps that drive up heating/cooling bills!
Add some flair and character to your exterior by installing sidelites and transom windows on your front door. Not only will this enhance its curb appeal, but also provide more natural light as well as providing visitors with an inviting entranceway.
