FAQs

I see R-Value mentioned when describing doors. What does it mean?

The R-value measures a material’s ability to restrict heat flow. Materials with higher R-values offer superior insulation, keeping homes warm in winter and cooler in summer.

Why are high-quality exterior doors so expensive?

High-quality doors are more expensive due to factors like premium materials, superior construction, customization options, energy efficiency, and professional installation.

What exterior door material is best for me?

Determining what type of door is best for your home depends on your needs, goals, and budget. We created a guide that explains the different types of door materials and styles.

How long does it take to install a door?

Installing a new exterior door can take on average from 4-6 hours depending on several factors including the condition of the frame, the type of door, and the installer’s experience. For example, if you’re going from a single door to double French doors, the project will take longer.

Is there any maintenance required for my exterior door?

Yes, exterior doors do require some maintenance to keep them in good condition. Different types of door maintenance include:

  • Cleaning your doors regularly with mild soap and water to remove dirt and grime.
  • Inspecting your door for damage, wear and tear, and cracks in the paint.
  • Checking your weatherstripping to make sure all the gaps are sealed properly.
  • Applying a sealer to wood doors every 12-18 months to protect against sun damage. For fiberglass doors, you can apply a new layer of stain and sealant over the existing finish.
Does replacing my front door add resale value to my home?

Investing in a new front door is a great way to increase a home’s resale value for several reasons. It adds curb appeal, improves energy efficiency, and increases security — all of which can be attractive to buyers
