As one of your home’s most visible design elements, your entry door helps increase curb appeal while maintaining your family’s safety and security. But it may sustain extensive damage over time and will need replacement. Just make sure to cover all the bases before getting a new one.
- Which door material should you choose? Entry doors come in a variety of materials, with each one having their own advantages. Wood, for instance, is proven to be durable and comes with great insulating properties, aside from adding a classic touch to your home. Steel is sleek, versatile and incredibly strong. There’s also fiberglass, a durable, energy-efficient option that can also mimic the natural beauty of authentic woodgrain.
- How should your door look? Customization is half the fun with an entry door replacement. You’ll want your new unit to add to your home’s aesthetics, after all. Entry doors are available in a wide selection of styles, profiles, colors and hardware options and finishes. You can mix and match as you see fit – but make sure the finished door matches beautifully with your home’s architectural style and exterior palette.
- What about energy efficiency? An entry door can affect comfort and energy efficiency. That’s why you have to make sure your choice can keep a durable, weathertight seal when closed. This way, you can effectively head off the harsh elements while ensuring no costly heating or cooling energy can leak outside.
