Entry Doors
Your Home's First Impression and Security Foundation
Entry doors serve as the primary access point to your home while providing essential security, weather protection, and aesthetic appeal. These doors combine robust construction with sophisticated locking systems and insulated cores that protect against intrusion and energy loss. The design integrates decorative glass options, hardware finishes, and architectural styling that reflects your personal taste.
Installing a quality entry door dramatically enhances curb appeal while increasing home value and making powerful first impressions on visitors. The improved insulation properties reduce heating and cooling costs by eliminating drafts and air infiltration common with older doors. These doors provide peace of mind through advanced security features that protect your family and belongings from unauthorized entry.
Entry doors are available in standard widths of 36 inches for single doors and 60 to 72 inches for double door configurations. Heights typically range from 80 to 96 inches to accommodate various ceiling heights and architectural preferences. Custom sizing ensures a perfect fit for unique openings or historical homes with non-standard dimensions.
Cleaning entry door surfaces with mild soap and water maintains their finish and prevents buildup that can affect appearance. Inspecting and lubricating hinges and locksets annually ensures smooth operation and extends hardware lifespan. Checking weatherstripping around the perimeter and replacing worn seals maintains energy efficiency and protects against water infiltration.

Frequently Asked Questions About Entry Doors
Selecting the right entry door involves understanding materials, features, and installation requirements that impact long-term satisfaction. Here are comprehensive answers to the questions homeowners most frequently ask about entry door investments:
Fiberglass entry doors offer the best balance of durability, low maintenance, and authentic appearance for most homeowners. Steel doors provide maximum security at budget-friendly prices but may dent with impact. The choice depends on your priorities for appearance, security, maintenance, and budget considerations.
Entry door installation costs vary based on door material, size, glass options, hardware selections, and installation complexity. Quality fiberglass or steel entry doors with professional installation typically range from moderate to premium investment levels. We provide detailed quotes that outline all costs for transparent decision-making without surprises.
Modern entry doors with insulated cores and proper weatherstripping dramatically improve energy efficiency compared to older hollow-core doors. The enhanced insulation prevents conditioned air loss and blocks outdoor temperature transfer. Quality entry doors often pay for themselves through energy savings within several years.
Quality entry doors professionally installed by Window & Door Professionals typically last 25 to 35 years with basic maintenance. Fiberglass doors often outlast steel doors, which may show rust in coastal environments. The longevity depends on material quality, finish durability, and exposure to weather elements.
Entry doors should feature solid cores, reinforced strike plates, deadbolts with one-inch throws, and multi-point locking systems. Steel or fiberglass construction resists kick-in attempts better than hollow materials. We recommend security upgrades, including smart locks and impact-resistant glass for maximum protection.
Entry doors need periodic cleaning and annual hardware lubrication to maintain optimal performance and appearance. Fiberglass and steel doors require minimal maintenance compared to wood doors, which need refinishing. Inspecting weatherstripping and touch-up painting minor scratches extends the door’s lifespan significantly.
Decorative glass can be manufactured with tempered or laminated options that resist breakage while maintaining aesthetic appeal. Glass positioned away from lock mechanisms prevents reaching through broken glass to unlock doors. We help you select glass designs that balance beauty with security requirements.
Entry door swing direction depends on interior layout, furniture placement, and building codes requiring outward swing in some applications. Most residential entry doors swing inward to the right when viewed from outside. We assess your specific situation to recommend optimal swing direction during consultation.
Professional installation ensures proper fit, weathertight sealing, secure anchoring, and correct operation that DIY installations often compromise. Improper installation voids manufacturer warranties and creates security vulnerabilities or energy efficiency problems. Our expert installers guarantee quality workmanship that protects your investment.
Modern entry doors easily accommodate smart locks, keyless entry systems, and electronic access control devices. The door preparation process remains similar to traditional locksets with minor wiring considerations. We can coordinate smart lock installation with your entry door project for seamless integration.
