Josh and his crew did a great job enclosing my porch. He was able to match both the exterior and interior with my existing cabin so it looks beautiful. He insulated it very well so it stays warm and toasty with just an electric heater. Very happy with his workmanship!

"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."

Doors questions, answered by experts

Smart door locks are safe to use and are usually considered safer than traditional locks with keys. While all electronic devices can be hacked, that doesn’t happen nearly as frequently in real life as people may think. You can also invest in multiple locks of different types for enhanced security so you don’t rely solely on one smart lock.

Wood is by no means the only type of front door material on the market. You can also choose from several other options, including:

Aluminum: Low-maintenance and affordable, but lacks insulation
Fiberglass: Offers excellent insulation and durability for a decent price
Glass: Offers beauty but less security or insulation, and a higher price tag
Steel: One of the most economical options if you’re looking for affordability, low maintenance, high security levels, and a door that will last
Wrought iron: Attractive and secure, but costly and heavy
