Choosing Entry Doors: 6 Things You Should Know
1: STYLE IS KEY
Your front door makes a strong statement about your house, so look for doors that express your personal style but also your home's style. Remember that doors should have agreement with the architecture of your home.
2: THE SECURITY TEST
Once you find a style you like, check it out for security. Steel doors, while not the most aesthetically pleasing, offer the greatest security against forced entry. Whatever door you pick, make sure it has a deadbolt lock.
3: THE DURABILITY TEST
After you install your front door, you want to forget about it. Before you buy, ask about maintenance. Issues like warping, rotting and cracking are important. Additionally, how often does it need repainting?
4: NATURAL LIGHT
Decorative glass panels allow for a view and let in natural light. Options include tempered impact glass, glass that limits UV rays and glass that reduces heat loss. Additionally, check out sidelights and transoms.
5: PRICING
Good quality doors are available in all price levels. Make sure to double check the price against other doors you have looked at. As a general rule, the heavier the door, the more expensive.
6: MEASUREMENTS
Knowing what size door you need is important. You do this by measuring the size of your rough opening. You may have to expand the door size if you are adding a new decorative element or architectural interest.
