When it comes to replacing your entry door, you want to consider security, energy efficiency, style, and durability. You can get the advice you need at our showroom in Katy, Galveston, League City and Pearland.
Security
Your front door is your home’s smile and handshake – greeting guests, protecting you and your family, keeping out drafts and pests. But if it’s chipped, faded by the sun, difficult to open or close or allows easy access to burglars, it’s time for a replacement.
Our high security doors are made with elegant European components and luxurious woods, discreetly infused with ballistic steel to stop dozens of powerful firearm rounds per UL 752 standards. They can be upgraded with bulletproof glass lites, transoms and sidelights, with options for single thumb-turn, key code or fingerprint scan. They are pre-assembled by engineers during manufacturing for optimal home installation.
Energy Efficiency
Replacing entry doors that are chipped, cracked, faded by the sun or worn by weather can drastically improve the curb appeal of a home and increase its perceived value. However, many homeowners are unaware that entry door replacement also can dramatically improve a home’s energy efficiency.
Solid wood doors are beautiful, but they’re not as insulating as their fiberglass or steel counterparts. In addition, the wood expands and contracts with temperature changes, so they require weather stripping to keep cold air out and warm air in.
Fiberglass and steel doors feature insulated cores that provide at least four times more insulation than traditional wood-only doors. They also have a low U-factor that helps reduce heat transfer through the entrance. Look for the ENERGY STAR label to help you compare energy performance ratings in relation to your climate.
Durability
A front door says a lot about your home, especially when it’s chipped or worn from weather. Replacing it is a great way to enhance your home’s curb appeal and perceived value.
Modern doors offer the durability of wood but don’t warp or fade under harsh sun and high humidity. They are also less likely to leak or let in drafts. They’re also easy to maintain, requiring very little maintenance other than a wash or wipe down.
ProVia’s fiberglass door series offers the beauty of real wood, without the rot or maintenance. Their embossed wood grain is amazingly realistic. They come in several different wood textures and 7 stain options. Fiberglass doors also provide improved energy efficiency ratings and will keep your house cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. They also prevent the influx of harmful UV rays into your home, which can cause furniture and window treatments to fade over time.
Style
The front door of your home says a lot about you. It reflects your design taste and your appreciation for quality. It is often the first thing that guests notice. It should be a welcoming gesture that boosts your curb appeal and your home’s resale value. Whether it’s chipped, faded by the Texas sun or drafty and inefficient, you can transform your entryway with a new door.
Today’s best-ration doors provide beauty, durability and energy efficiency with fewer maintenance concerns. You can choose from wood-look and smooth factory painted finishes to complement your home’s architectural style. Glass elements like sidelites and transom windows, simulated divided lites, panels and decorative and privacy glass can make your entry door truly unique. Hardware options like Colonial doorknockers, peepsites, kick plates and strap hinges and clavos can further enhance the look.
