4 Things to Consider When Getting a Door Replacement

Investing in new entry doors or patio doors is always exciting: it’s an opportunity to boost your home’s curb appeal, improve accessibility, and perhaps even save some money on your utility bills while you’re at it. With so many options available, however, deciding on the best solution for your needs can be challenging.

Four variables to consider when choosing new doors:

1. Material: Entry and patio doors may look completely different from each other, but they have the same basic requirements in terms of materials: they should be heavy-duty, long-lasting, and they should offer strong insulation. We are proud to offer a wide range of door options that are up to the task. Our ProVia® entry doors are available in steel and fiberglass, while our Andersen® patio doors have wood- or vinyl-sheathed options to offer top-notch performance with minimal maintenance requirements.
2. Style: Your doors can add unique charm to your home, boosting your curb appeal. Take the time to go through every style option before making your choice. Whether you prefer solid colors or natural wood finishes, you’ll find something from our wide and varied selection of patio doors and entry doors.
3. Energy efficiency: Our replacement doors are all optimized for energy efficiency. In addition to the insulated frames, our Andersen patio doors are installed with Low-E4 SunSmart® dual-pane glass, which is up to 70% more energy-efficient in summer and up to 45% more energy-efficient in winter than other doors. Our ProVia entry doors have polyurethane cores and ComfortTech™ warm edge glazing that provides exceptional energy efficiency.
4. Custom sizes: Don’t fall into the trap of one-size-fits-all replacement doors. Installing these doors into your home will involve modifying the original structure—not a good idea if you have a historic home or if your home has brick exteriors. Our replacement patio doors, on the other hand, can be customized to fit perfectly inside your existing door openings.
