Exterior Doors
Doors are the entrances and exits of your home. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Popular styles of doors include solid wooden doors, sliding glass panel doors, hinged (or French-style) patio doors and storm doors. Exterior doors can be made of wood, steel, fiberglass or glass. Door frames are generally made of wood.
Exterior doors are not only attractive and allow you an easy way to enter and exit your home. They also act as a barrier between the elements and your living space. Improperly installed, doors can threaten your security and create gaps where the heat from your home can escape, wasting energy and increasing your heating bills. Gaps in the door frame can also allow moisture to enter your walls, something that could lead to mold and mildew problems.
