What You Should Know Before Replacing Your Front Door

Your front door serves not only as an entrance and exit, but also as a first impression for your guests. It gives people an invitation to enter your home and see the unique character of the space. So, making sure your front door is practical but also reflects your unique style is important. Here are some things you should know before you replace your front door.

Know your materials.
Whether it’s aluminum, wood, vinyl, or fiberglass, we carry the type of doors you’re looking for!

Fiberglass:
These are built to withstand for years without showing wear. They come in different colors and can be painted.

Aluminum:
This is one of the most popular door materials because it’s durable and affordable. It’s resistant to weather elements and insects and can be painted whatever color you prefer.

Wood:
One of the best choices for a front entry door, a quality wood door adds classic beauty to any home.

Vinyl:
This is an affordable thermal resistant option that is very durable. These are commonly used for patio doors and are available in folding, swinging, or sliding options.

Know your style.
When looking for a new front entry door, it’s important to look at your home’s overall architectural style. Is it a farmhouse, Craftsman, or modern home? It is helpful to pick a door style that blends into the overall theme of the home rather than picking something that stands out as different.

Know your budget.
Doors can range in price, but our team at Lifetime Windows and Doors is committed to helping you find the best option in your budget! Do you have a unique entry area that may need a customized door option? No problem. We offer a variety of options from Therma-Tru, Milgard or Simonton.

So, whether it’s a standard sized door or something more custom, we can get the job done quickly and on-time. Contact us today for options on what door could be best for your space!

How to Make A Statement with Your Entryway

First impressions matter. Whether your home is an updated Craftsman-style home or a cabin on a beautiful piece of Pacific Northwest land, your space is something that reflects who you are. Your front entryway is a crucial part of your home. The entry door will help express your unique taste and style.

When you’re considering your current entryway and how you can make it stand out, we recommend starting with your entry door. Don’t be afraid to be bold! This allows your home to stand out from others in the neighborhood. It’s okay to do something unique! Especially if the homes around you have similar exteriors or interior layouts. A custom entry door allows you to make a statement about your home. What do you love about your home? Showcase that!

Not sure which door is right for you? Shapes and styles vary, so think outside of the box. If you have arched walkways throughout the home or a foyer with an archway, a square contrast door to contrast could work. Or, consider a door that has similar arches. There are no set rules. Double doors are also a popular option for homes. A stunning single door with paneled glass on the side is also great. Your front entryway can become an inspiration for the rest of your home. It helps set the tone for the rest of the space.

Whether it’s a custom wood door or something more contemporary or rustic, our team at Lifetime Windows and Doors can help you find the perfect front door. We will work with your budget guidelines, talk to you about what size options could work, and then we’ll get your appointment scheduled for a simple installation by our experts. We proudly serve the Portland Metro area, Central Oregon, and Southwest Washington. Contact us today to get your door replacement project started!
