Storm doors are not only attractive, but offer several benefits to homeowners. Whether they are installed on the outside of the main door or as part of a porch enclosure, they help to shield your main door against the elements and act as an insulator to regulate the temperature inside your home.
Benefits of Storm Doors for your Home
- Improves Attractiveness of Entranceway
One of the reasons you will want to look at storm doors is because they improve the attractiveness of the entrance to your home. If you have decided to invest in a high-quality front door, choosing the right storm door will help to set it off in a way which will enhance it.
Modern storm doors are available in a number of appealing colours and styles. At George Kent Home Improvements, we offer aluminum and vinyl storm doors. You can choose from classic and modern styles that can be fit with an interchangeable screen or full-tempered glass-only styles. Your choice will depend upon whether your entry door has decorative glass inserts that you wish to draw attention to from the curb or if you want to make your storm door itself a focal point of your entranceway by selecting a more detailed design for it.
- Shields your Main Door Against the Elements
Once a storm door is installed, it provides a barrier against the weather. This extra barrier helps to keep rain and snow away from your front door. It also helps to prevent leaks and reduces repairs and maintenance on the entrance to your home.
- Helps to Regulate Interior Temperature
A storm door will also help to make the interior temperature of your home feel more comfortable. In the summer, it keeps the air inside your house inside, which means that your air conditioner doesn’t have to work as hard to keep your house cool.
Our storm doors are available with low-emissivity (low-e) coating to control the way the sun’s heat circulates in and out of your home. Depending on the direction the door is facing, the coating is applied to either the outside of the pane of glass to repel heat or the inside pane to keep more heat inside your home in winter.
