Your front door does more than welcome guests; it protects your home, improves energy efficiency and plays a major role in curb appeal. A recent project in Carlisle shows how replacing an aging door can dramatically improve both comfort and appearance.
At Marroquin Exteriors, we were contacted by a homeowner dealing with an old double entry door that had become extremely drafty and worn over time. What started as a concern about cold air entering the home turned into a complete door upgrade designed to improve insulation, security and style.
The Problem: A Drafty, Worn Double Door
The existing double entry door had seen better days. Years of exposure to weather had caused the door seals and structure to deteriorate, allowing outside air to leak into the home.
The homeowner was experiencing several common exterior door issues:
- Noticeable drafts during colder months
- Higher heating costs due to air leaks
- Worn appearance that affected the home’s curb appeal
- Reduced insulation and weather protection
After evaluating the door and frame, the homeowner was extremely pleased with our team’s recommendation of replacing the entire unit with a modern, energy-efficient entry door system.
The Solution: A New Fiberglass Door
For the new installation, the homeowner selected a premium fiberglass door from ProVia - the Signet Series in a warm Sandstone finish.
Fiberglass entry doors have become a top choice for homeowners because they offer the appearance of real wood while delivering superior durability and energy efficiency.
The ProVia Signet Series Door, in addition to energy efficiency and the realistic woodgrain look, also touts low maintenance compared to wood doors as well as lifetime warranty protection.
The Sandstone color provided a clean, classic look that complements this home’s style while brightening the entryway.
Added Protection with a Storm Door
To further enhance the entry system, we installed a Tradewinds storm door from Larson.
Storm doors provide several practical benefits including extra weather protection for the entry door, improved energy efficiency and ventilation options during warmer months.
This particular model is designed for long-term performance while maintaining a sleek look that pairs well with the new fiberglass entry door.
