First impressions matter, with people and places. At home, it’s all about your yard—for example, the landscaping, siding, and front door. Choosing the perfect front door can enhance your overall curb appeal. With so many options, it can be difficult to decide which one is right for your house. Opt for a design that stays true to the overall style and architecture of your home, which will create a cohesive and welcoming entrance.
Material
-
Fiberglass is low maintenance and long lasting. In addition to minimal maintenance requirements, fiberglass doors are exceptionally durable. They don't chip or dent like a wood or steel door might, which makes them a great option for your front door — the barrier between your home and the outside world.
-
Wood doors provide much more insulation, which will keep rooms cool or hot as needed, especially when the door is framed and hung well. Another energy-efficient tip: Keep doors to rooms rarely used closed so that the air circulates more around high-traffic areas.
-
Of all of the exterior door options, a steel door requires the lowest upfront investment. You can find a variety of steel door options all at a considerably lower cost than a wood or fiberglass door, simply because steel doors are much less expensive to manufacture.
-
Aluminum doors have to be custom ordered and are very expensive.The benefit is the baked-on enamel finish requiresno touch ups and won’t rust.
-
Iron doors are very strong, and this coupled with their durability ensures that they will last a lifetime and greatly increase the security of your property. It's much harder for people to try to break through an iron door than a cheaper material, so it makes your home much safer to install this kind of door.
entryway Door styles
-
The most common and versatile style, designed with solid raised panels. Other accents like trim and windows set each door apart.
-
Craftsman style doors are especially charming, with a panel of windows at the top and decorative molding below (usually). If you lean toward a more traditional aesthetic but want something with a little more character, this could be a winner.
-
For wider homes, double doors can be both proportional and practical. They also add a certain elegance to the exterior, making them especially ideal for more traditionally designed houses.
-
Named for the Dutch immigrants who brought this style from the Netherlands countryside, Dutch doors are the best of both worlds. Open the top part to let the breeze and sunshine in without disturbing the bottom part (that makes a great gate for kids and pets alike).
-
If you’re seeking a modern look that never goes out of style, a vertical paneled door is a unique choice, recommends Brown. Using a pivot hinge instead of traditional hinges keeps the door clean and minimal while adding distinctive functionality. Horizontal panels can lend an equally modern touch.
-
When you want to make a statement, consider Old World-inspired arches that add a lot of character. Most homes aren’t built for an arched front door, and the installment of one creates a custom look.
-
Glass doors are a great opportunity to maximize your natural light and can represent all kinds of aesthetics. If security is a concern, you can opt for beveled, stained, or glazed glass that obscures the view without compromising on sunshine.
