Exterior Doors

Replacing your front door becomes crucial when it shows signs of deterioration and wear,

which could affect your home’s energy efficiency. Here are some indicators that your front door may need to be replaced.

• If the insulated glass is unsealed and condensation is present between the panes
• If the hardware is broken and cannot be replaced
• If the frame or panel is damaged
• If the door no longer closes or locks properly
• If the weather stripping cannot be replaced

Consult a professional at Verdun to determine whether the components of your door can be repaired or replaced.

There are several possible configurations for your new exterior door.

The format of the opening will determine whether you need a single or double door, with or without a fanlight or sidelight.

When it comes to the material, you should prioritize steel. However, if you wish to preserve the authenticity of the original door or the character of the home, wood doors are also an excellent choice.

Your need for natural light, privacy and security will influence the format and features of the window in your exterior door. The finish and texture of the glass will offer more or less privacy, while the format of the window will affect the door’s security and the amount of natural light it lets in.

The color and the hardware are the final touches that will give your door the desired appearance.
