Options for Replacing Your Front Doors

Written by Sweet Happening.

A front door is more than just a part of your house. It’s what greets guests when they first come to your home. It’s often the first thing that people notice when they look at your home from the street. And it also serves as a form of protection against unwanted visitors. For all of these reasons, it’s important to have a sturdy and attractive front door at your home. So if you aren’t happy with the current state of your front door, now is a perfect time to make a replacement to new wood doors.

Here’s a look at some things you need to consider when it’s time to replace your metal or wooden front doors with something new:

Types of Materials: You’ll have several different types of materials to choose from when purchasing a new front door:

  • Wood: Exterior wood doors add a touch of class to any home. Depending on the type of house you have and the look you want, the rustic charm of wooden doors might be the perfect choice. One downside to wood doors is that they require a bit of upkeep — they need to be refinished or repainting every few years.
  • Steel: Having steel front doors greatly reduces the amount of maintenance you’ll need to do on your doors. These doors can be installed and will look great with minimal effort. Steel is a sturdy option that is great for all weather conditions.
  • Fiberglass: If you want to simulate the look of wood without the high maintenance and increased costs, fiberglass is a great option. Fiberglass doors look like wood but require minimal upkeep.

Single or Double Doors: Many front doors are single doors, which mean that they are just one door. However, you can create a grander look for your front door by installing double doors in your home. This will create a larger feel for your entrance area.

Swing Types: Most front doors swing inward, which means that they open toward the house. However, you can purchase doors that swing out and toward the outside. Why would you choose to do this? One reason would be if you have a limited amount of interior space and want to avoid having your doors hit things when they are opened.

Glass Choices: Decorative glass panels can add beauty to your front door. However, glass inserts don’t have to be just for looks. Certain types of glass such as Low-E glass will reduce your energy costs or keep your house extra cool in the warm summer months.
