Materials

Fiberglass, steel or wood entry doors?

All three can be great doors. They behave differently in Texas sun and humidity.

What makes a door seal

Most drafty doors aren't bad doors. They're badly hung ones.

A door only seals if the frame is square, the weatherstripping meets it all the way around, and the threshold meets the bottom. That's where installation matters most.

  1. Insulated core

    Foam-filled fiberglass and steel slabs slow heat far better than an old hollow or solid-wood door.

  2. Continuous weatherstripping

    Compression seals on the jambs and head, plus a sweep at the bottom, close the gaps you can feel.

  3. Adjustable threshold

    Lets us fine-tune the seal at the sill, and readjust it as the house settles.

  4. Square, shimmed and sealed frame

    The frame is set plumb and level, shimmed solid, and the gap to the wall is insulated and sealed.

Questions

Entry door replacement FAQ

How long does a door replacement take?
Most single entry doors are installed in a day. Doors are made to order, so allow a few weeks from order to install.
Will my door be secure during the install?
Yes. We don't leave an opening unsecured. The old door stays until the new one is ready to go in the same day.
Can you match my existing hardware or style?
We'll help you choose a style, finish and hardware that suits your home, or match what you have.
Can I pay over time?
Yes. See Financing.
How much does a new front door cost?
As a broad range, a new front door often costs from under $1,000 to around $3,000 or more installed. Steel is usually at the lower end and fiberglass in the middle to upper range. Custom wood, double doors and sidelights cost more. Read what a new front door costs.
What's the best entry door material for Texas weather?
For most North Texas homes, fiberglass is the best all-around choice: it insulates well and stands up to sun and humidity without the upkeep of wood. Steel is a strong, lower-cost option for shaded entries. See fiberglass, steel or wood for Texas.
Do you replace sliding patio doors?
Yes, and we install bifold doors too, with the same Low-E glass as our windows. See sliding & bifold doors and what a sliding door costs.
