Replacing Your Doors? How To Choose the Perfect Entry Door

Finding theĀ perfect entry doorĀ can be a difficult task. There are just so many options to choose from:Ā styles, materials, colors, security, energy efficiency, etc. Where do you even start?

Here areĀ 3 factorsĀ that you should keep in mind when you’re searching for your new front door:

Design Of Entry Doors

Design is typically the first thing that most homeowners think about when replacing an entry door, and for good reasons — the entry door can make a strong statement about your home and can easily boostĀ curb appeal.

When you’re thinking about the style of your new door, it’s smart to match your homeĀ architecturally. There are so many styles of doors to choose from, from classic or traditional to contemporary; atĀ Aspen Home ImprovementsĀ we offer overĀ 80 different stylesĀ in our line ofĀ Lasting Elegance doors.

After you’ve chosen a style, it’s time to think about color.Ā  Stand out with a brightly colored door or keep it classic with black or wooden doors. Check out this guide on choosing theĀ perfect front door color.

Security Of Entry Doors

As much as you want your door to look great, security is a big issue that you shouldn’t forget about. Your entry door helps keep your family safe in your home. Here are some things you should think about:Ā How is the door reinforced? Is the lock that you’re using strong enough?

Safety is one of our top concerns at Aspen, that’s why all of our doors are equipped with a 19 lock bolt along with a 14 gauge steel reinforcement channel.

Energy Efficiency Of Entry Doors

One of the concerns that have come to the top of mind in recent years is the energy efficiency of entry doors. Old, drafty, un-insulated doors can cause heating and cooling costs to rise. You want to look for doors with efficient weather stripping and an insulated core to keep the heat out in the summer and in during the winter months.

We know hold cold it can get around Pennsylvania and Maryland in the winter, which is why ourĀ fiberglass and steel doorsare Energy Star approved!

If you’re looking for glass doors, keep an eye on the U-Factor – glass with a U-Factor of .30 or lower is what you should be looking forĀ (Okna Windows).
