Types of Doors
Simply answer the questions below and we will show you
the perfect types of replacement doors for your home at the best prices.
Steel Entry Doors
Steel entry doors are by far the most popular type of doors on the market today. This type of door accounts for about half the market. In general steel doors are relatively inexpensive and can provide the security and weather resistance of the much pricier fiberglass and wood doors. Notwithstanding dents, steel doors require very little maintenance and are very energy-efficient.
However, steel doors don’t withstand weather as well as fiberglass and wood doors especially under torrential rain and strong winds. Additionally while they’re typically low-maintenance, dents in steel doors are hard to fix, and scratches may rust if they aren’t treated promptly.

Fiberglass Entry Doors
Fiberglass entry doors are the practical choice for most people. These doors are typically available with a smooth surface or embossed wood-grain texture. An edge treatment on some makes them look more like real wood.
On the positive side, fiberglass doors resist wear and tear much better than steel and wood. They can be painted or stained, are moderately priced, dent-resistant, and require very little maintenance. However, fiberglass entry doors have been known to crack under severe impact.

Wood Entry Doors
Wood Entry doors provide the high-end look that other materials try to mimic. Solid wood doors are best at resisting wear and tear, compared to other materials, and they’re also the least likely to dent. Scratches on wood entry doors are super easy to repair. The biggest downside to wood entry doors is the hefty price tag they usually come with. Wood doors are expensive and they also require a fair amount of upkeep (painting or varnishing) to look their best.

French Patio Doors
French patio doors, also referred to as hinged patio doors, are a popular option for patio doors because of their sturdiness and security. They open on a hinge like a typical door. In general, French doors are sold in a set of two or three panels, but only one of them opens. The other is essentially a door-length window.
You can, however, find hinged patio doors in which both doors open. Sometimes they come with an additional panel on either side of the opening doors. French doors can contain as many panels as you’d like.

Sliding Glass Patio Doors
Sliding patio doors are a fantastic option if you need to conserve space, either indoors or outdoors. Because they do not swing open, they do not need as much clearance as hinged doors. Thus, you can put furniture or other items closer to the door without worrying about them being hit by the swinging motion.
Unlike hinged or French doors, sliding patio doors are more difficult to make secure because of the simplicity of the locking mechanism. There are ways to secure a sliding door, like putting a bar inside the sliding track so that the door cannot be opened or putting a removable bolt through the base of the door.

Storm Doors
While some people use the terms storm doors and screen doors interchangeably, there are major differences between the two. Screen doors let in air and light while keeping bugs at bay. Storm doors do the same but are generally a bit sturdier and, while they often have a screen, they also add an extra layer of protection in the form of glass against rain, snow, and wind. Storm doors are more likely to enhance front door design.
Most quality storm doors are made from lightweight aluminum over a rigid foam core, but steel- and vinyl-clad storm doors are also available, as well as those with a wood core. Higher-end storm doors can be nearly as attractive as entry doors and serve as a valuable asset when considering front door ideas and plans.
