How Entry Doors Can Improve Your Home’s Curb Appeal

Have you ever gazed at your home’s entryway and wished that it was more efficient? Perhaps you’ve struggled with drafts, escalating energy bills, or a design that doesn’t resonate with your aesthetic.

Home door replacements with Provia give homeowners more than just a new design. They offer increased comfort, security, energy efficiency and a longer life expectancy.

Front Entry Doors

An entry door is more than just an opening to your home, it also sets a first impression for guests and neighbors. A high-quality custom front door with superior curb appeal can make your home the envy of the neighborhood.

The right type of material is key, since it needs to be durable and withstand severe Texas weather. Fiberglass doors, for example, provide energy efficiency and durability, without the warping that can occur in direct sunlight.

Wood entry doors offer an elegant, traditional look that complements a variety of architectural styles. However, they require regular sanding and refinishing to protect against rot, water damage and other wear-and-tear. In addition, they can be more vulnerable to termite infestation. Steel entry doors, on the other hand, provide exceptional strength and durability and are energy efficient. They also require less maintenance and can withstand the harsh Texas weather. They can even reduce your utility bills by improving insulation.

French Doors

A beautifully stylized hinged door that opens up a home to allow more natural light, fresh air and unobstructed views of patios and gardens. They also seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living spaces, perfect for Dallas’ warm climate and emphasis on outdoor entertaining.

French doors are available with either left or right active door as the primary entryway, as well as with a center astragal (across-the-width latching mechanism). A wide selection of door glass options allows you to customize your look, including internal grids, stained glass and flat grids between the panes.

As with all aspects of your home, it’s important to find the best residential doors Dallas TX has to offer, and that means not just sourcing the doors from any old chuck-in-a-truck. If you source the wrong doors, or have them installed incorrectly, your home will be exposed to water and air intrusion which can wreak havoc depending on how large the points of infiltration are.

Sliding Doors

Sliding doors seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor spaces, making the home feel larger and more open. They let in copious amounts of natural light, enhancing aesthetics and improving energy efficiency. They are also ideal for bringing in fresh air, making them great for North Texas’ humid climate.

These doors can be installed in a variety of ways, creating the perfect look for your home. They come in different frame materials, such as aluminum, vinyl, and wood; each offering its own unique benefits. There are also a variety of glass options, including tinted and frosted, as well as decorative glass patterns to add personality and style.

Our sliding doors can be fitted with double- or triple-pane glazing to improve energy performance. This reduces heat transfer, keeping your home cool during the summer and warm in the winter, reducing reliance on heating and cooling systems. In addition, they are engineered to perform well in the face of extreme weather conditions like heavy rains and scorching temperatures.

Exterior Storm Doors

In Texas, where the weather can be so volatile, your home’s entryway needs more than just a stylish door. It also requires a robust barrier that can hold up to gusty winds, pouring rain, and scorching sun. That’s where a durable storm door comes in.

These doors are a smart addition to your Dallas home. They protect your home’s main door, provide convenient ventilation, and enhance curb appeal.

A full-view storm door features a glass or screen pane and a half-size insulating layer that slides into front of your existing doorframe. The insulating layer can be lowered when ventilation is desired. You can select from a variety of glass and screen styles. These doors also feature a double sweep and nylon pile weatherstripping to reduce air infiltration and help your home stay comfortable all year round.
