Which is more energy efficient: sliding or French doors?

• <div><p>French doors can seal better, so a good quality, well-insulated French door will be more energy efficient than the best insulated sliding door. That’s because there’s no way to totally seal a sliding door and still allow it to slide past the jamb effectively.</p></div>

Can a storm door be used as a regular door?

• <div><p>No, a storm door should not replace a regular door. It lacks the durability, insulation, and security of a proper exterior door. Most storm doors have lightweight frames and minimal locking hardware, and they aren’t meant to stand alone. While they work well as a backup to your main entry door, relying on one as your only barrier would likely lead to drafts, higher energy bills, and safety concerns.</p></div>

Q: Do storm doors add value to your home?

• <div><p>A well-installed storm door in good shape can add value to your home. But if it looks shabby or is hanging off its hinges, it could have the opposite effect. In general, the mere existence of a storm door likely won&rsquo;t fetch you much more on the sale price of your home, but it can improve your home&rsquo;s curb appeal and help it catch the eye of more potential buyers.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if my door is out of stock?

• <div><p>If your specific sliding glass door model is out of stock or no longer being built, it may still be best to contact the original manufacturer or installer. They can suggest a comparable replacement that is similar in size, avoiding more expensive repairs to retrofit a new door to an older opening. </p></div>

Q: What if I can’t find the correct size door at the store?

• <div><p>If you took measurements of the door and can&rsquo;t find the correct size in the store, you may need a custom-size screen door. Many door manufacturers produce doors fit-to-size using individualized dimensions. Another option, if the door opening is smaller than standard, is to have the door frame opening cut larger to accommodate a standard-sized door.</p></div>
