Entry Doors
A beautiful entry door gives any visitor their first impression of your home, adds to a house’s curb appeal, and increases property value. Thus it’s important to select a door that enhances your home’s overall architecture while signaling your distinctive style. You should also think about how an entry door will look from the inside. Since these doors provide secure privacy and noise-abatement as well, they should be strong, well-framed, and solidly constructed. They can often support hooks or other attachments for a sign and door or window accessories.
French (Hinged) Doors
French doors have transparent or glazed glass panels extending the door’s entire length. Often used in pairs as a more traditional-looking substitute for patio doors, French doors swing outward or inward depending on space and function. Some manufacturers make ‘sliding french doors,’ which are patio doors with framing characteristic of classic french doors with the larger bottom and top rails.
Scenic Doors
Scenic doors offer panoramic views and blur the lines between the inside and out. With custom colors, sizes, and hardware available, these high-performance doors create an elegant and effortless transition from the interior to the exterior of your home.
Storm & Screen Doors
Storm doors provide extra protection by weatherproofing your home, sealing drafts, and increasing energy efficiency. Screen doors open interior spaces to natural light and provide ventilation while keeping out insects and blowing debris. Always popular choices as back doors and side doors, today’s screen and storm doors are so well designed that they are being used more and more as entrances.
Patio (Sliding) Doors
Patio doors are made from wood, fiberglass, vinyl, or a combination of materials that frame large open windows. They open by sliding or folding, offering easy access to rooms or back yards, and are available in many styles. A new type of patio door, the ‘lift and slide,’ offers full retractability and unobstructed views. With all patio doors, careful consideration of glass options is particularly important.
Cellar Doors
Rugged, easy-to-operate cellar doors can add useable square footage to your home. As they are exposed to the elements, cellar doors need to be weather-tight; for safety, they also need sturdy locks and internal mounting flanges.
When you're looking for your door's size, you’ll need to measure three things: the height, the width, and another important element called the doorjamb.
Your door’s jamb size is measured as the width of the door frame from back to front from where it meets your home’s wall stud. As always, our door installation experts can assist with these measurements either remotely or on-site.
To measure these aspects, take a tape measure and:
