Your doors are the key to your home’s performance and style. They need to be tough enough to stand up to the weather, and easy on the eye. They protect you from the sun’s harmful rays and reduce outside noise, while letting in natural light and creating a comfortable environment for your family to enjoy.
Security
In the wake of terrorism, crime and international smuggling, it has become more important than ever to secure your home. Price’s Guaranteed Doors offers a variety of security doors that will provide an extra layer of protection for your family. Our EZ series doors arrive 90% assembled and preloaded into a 6″ wide pocket to save you time and money on installation. We also offer emergency egress options and ADA compliance options. Contact us today for more information.
Durability
Solid wood exterior doors are incredibly durable and resistant to being kicked in or broken down. They also offer superior insulating properties, helping to keep your home at a comfortable temperature in the summer and winter, reducing your energy costs.
If durability isn’t a concern, aluminum clad and fiberglass entry doors are available. They are both highly energy efficient and impervious to rot, mold and termites. Some of these door models feature real wood edges and wide center panels with AccuGrain technology for dynamic texture.
For added style and protection, install decorative features like grilles, between-glass blinds or dentil shelves. You can even add a transom or sidelight, which can brighten up the interior and give you a view outside. Lastly, you can select hardware in any finish you prefer, including brass, satin nickel, chrome or oil-rubbed bronze. Adding these extras will make your new front door look as unique and individual as you are.
Energy Efficiency
A poorly insulated door compromises your home’s comfort and raises heating and cooling costs. The type of energy efficiency features you want depends on your climate and the style of your home. Look for doors with the ENERGY STAR label to compare their performance ratings for your area. You can also use the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) label to compare doors’ insulating values. The lower the U-factor, the more efficient the door.
Wooden doors provide a traditional look and are crafted from a wide range of materials, from inexpensive composites to high-quality firs or walnuts. They can be stained or painted any color. Fiberglass-clad steel doors are often a more affordable option than solid wood. They have a foam insulation core and include magnetic weatherstripping.
Whether you live in an older West Valley City home or are looking for ways to update a newer one, replacement doors should be on your list of renovation projects.
