Should You Invest in a Double Entry Door?

If your front door is looking worse for wear, you might want to consider replacing it. Not only will this project boost your home’s safety and security–it also gives you the opportunity to pick a more attractive door style–like a double entry door. 

Today, S.I.S Exterior Renovations, your premier door and siding company, discusses some key things to know about double entry doors.

1. Cost. A double entry door is generally costlier than a single door. But if your home has a large entrance hall–and you have the budget for this type of door–then you may find it’s well worth the expense. 
2. Accessibility. Investing in a double entry door is especially handy when it comes to moving large objects like furniture in and out of the house. It also makes the home more accessible to people with disabilities or mobility issues, as it’s easy to maneuver a wheelchair and out of a double entry door. You can consult a trusted door and exterior siding expert like S.I.S Exterior Renovations for exact door measurements that comply with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) requirements.
3. Appearance. A double entry door is visually striking and will enhance your home’s curb appeal. S.I.S Exterior Renovations carries high-quality entry doors from Portatec®. They are available in a wide range of colors, finishes and hardware options, making it easy to choose a product that complements the other components of your home’s exterior.
4. Strength and Energy Efficiency. Double entry doors are designed for greater security and energy efficiency. Our Portatec steel entry door systems feature galvanized steel sheets over a solid wood structure, allowing for superior durability. They also come with advanced polyurethane foam for exceptional thermal insulation.
