Exterior doors

One of the main reasons to replace an exterior door is for energy efficiency. Most of the doors we install are fiberglass and have a U-factor of around 0.15. U-factor measures the rate of heat transfer through a product. It considers all elements of an assembly including conductivity, air flow, and glass emissivity. A lower U-Factor indicates a better insulating product. another reason to replace an exterior door is because of rot on the frame. Sometimes the frame can be repaired but a lot of times it makes more sense to replace due to the other added benefits. Another reason is due to security issues. We do have a special service call for emergencies and security. If your door has been kicked in, we typically can get to it same day.  Also, when we replace a door, we use 3" screws and go directly into the studs and use 3" screws on your deadbolt.
