Types of Double Entry Doors And What Fits Your Home

Entry doors increase curb appeal and allow for more natural light to enter your home. Your front door is also one of the first things people notice when they come over or pass by. Therefore, you need to choose wisely.
Here’s everything you need to know about double entry doors, how to find the perfect style, and which material to choose for your door.

Types of Double Doors

There are various types of double entry doors for you to choose from. Not only are there different material options, but colours, sizes, designs, and additional details as well, which can all help improve your home’s appearance to a great extent.
When it comes to the material, most double entry doors are made from steel, fibreglass, wood, and glass. Before you decide on the material, there are a couple of factors you should consider first. This includes how much you’re willing to invest, how often you would need to maintain the door, and your location’s climate.
Steel Doors

Steel Double Entry Doors

Steel entryway doors are the most popular choice because they provide security, durability, and quality. Other factors that make steel doors so desirable are that they are weather-proof and the fact that they don’t warp, rust, or get disfigured over time. Despite all the advantages of steel doors, they are inexpensive compared to glass double entry doors.

Steel doors are generally easy to install and maintain, and they can be finished with various colours and textures. What’s more, steel doors can be used for both interior and exterior applications.

Fibreglass Double Entry Doors

Fibreglass double entry doors are also quite durable and secure, ideal for cold Canadian winters. In fact, they’re so efficient that they require little to no maintenance. In other words, they’re built to last. Given their sturdiness, they are typically only used for exterior applications. One of the most notable benefits of fibreglass doors is that they can be manufactured into virtually any shape and texture.

When it comes to finishes, you can choose between textured fibreglass and smooth-skinned fibreglass double entry doors. Many homeowners opt for fibreglass entryway doors because they mimic wooden doors but are more durable.

Wooden Double Entry Doors

Wooden doors can make beautiful entryway doors, but homeowners prefer to use them as interior doors since they require so much maintenance. They can give your home a vintage appeal, especially when combined with glass panels. Not to mention that they can be painted or varnished with any colour.
Wooden doors also provide excellent insulation, making them energy efficient. Aside from security and insulation, they block out the outside noise well. They’re easy to install, but they require regular repainting or varnishing. Wooden entryway doors are typically made from pine, oak, alder, and mahogany. They’re generally affordable.

Glass Double Entry Doors

Glass double entry doors are definitely the most elegant option, adding an element of class to your home. What’s more, they allow for natural light to flow into your entryway space. Double entry doors can be either made entirely of glass or combined with other materials in the shape of glass panels.
While glass doors are an attractive choice, they offer the least amount of security, and they can get damaged fairly easily. That’s why they’re better suited for exterior backyard doors or interior doors. The glass can be clear, textured, or tinted. Keep in mind that glass double entry doors command high prices, since they usually need to be precisely cut to fit all the frames.
