Depending on where they are, doors serve different purposes. Your front door invites the world into your home. It provides a warm portal inside for friends and family alike. On the other hand, your patio door opens your home up to the beauty of Colorado. They provide a window and an entrance to the backyard of your home. You want a door that is both gorgeous and energy efficient.
While your doors can be ornate and aesthetically pleasing, they also exist to serve a very important purpose. Your doors keep your home cozy and warm, while also providing security from the elements and from unwanted intrusion alike. Thinking about a new set of doors for you home? Here are a handful of doors that National Home Improvement offers. We’ll also provide a few tips on what they can do for your home’s beauty and warmth.
Ways New Doors Can Improve Your Home
- Entry Doors
- Entry doors don’t just provide the portal to your home open to the street; they also impact the curb appeal of your home. They are also a solid barrier between the inside of your home and intrusion from the street. A quality door and a pleasing entryway give your home a higher perceived value.
- Therma-Tru doors are energy efficient, offering up to 5 times the insulation of a standard wood door. They have solid polyurethane core, which creates a thermal barrier. With the barrier in place, heat or cold from outside won’t affect the climate inside.
- Therma-Tru entry doors are also reinforced to make lock sets and deadbolts more secure. This keeps your home safe from unwanted intrusion. Their proprietary strike plate system will resist up to 450 pounds of force when properly fastened to the home’s frame.
- Each Therma-Tru entry door is sold as part of a complete door system, ensuring that it fits tightly and securely when installed.
- French Doors
- A French door provides a lovely portal to your patio. The door is mostly glass and allows you to enjoy the yard and patio, even when you’re sitting inside in the snow and thinking wistfully about the Summer grilling season.
- You can customize your French doors with glass styles and grids that are made to match any aesthetic, and size need not be a worry with standard and custom sizing that is available to fit almost any size opening.
- Keyed locks and foot locks provide additional security and ease of use for your French door.
- On all French doors, tempered safety glass is standard, providing safety, strength, and security.
- Weather stripping and thermal frame design are sure to keep your home warm and thermally efficient, even during the extremely hot or cold months.
- Patio Doors
- Sliding patio doors are something of a standard when it comes to an entryway to your patio and your back yard.
- You can choose from 2, 3, or even 4-panel doors with a clear and clean profile and gorgeous expanded glass views. Additionally, all sliding patio doors come equipped with Tempered Safety Glass for your peace of mind, standard.
- As with the French doors, weather stripping and thermal designs will help to keep your home cozy and thermally efficient.
- Keyed locks and foot locks provide additional security and ease of use.
- Energy efficient glass options give every homeowner the opportunity to customize a door that best fits their home and their lifestyle. Sliding or retractable screens provide ventilation while keeping insects and blowing debris out of your home.
- Finally, for pet owners, a sliding patio door featuring a rugged ‘doggy’ door built into the sliding panel provides a great solution for hassle-free entry and exit for your pets. The impact resistant security cover even comes with an ‘action pin’, which locks and secures the ‘doggy’ door if you need to keep it closed.
