Here you’ll find our before-and-after front door replacement projects.
Most of the jobs you’ll see here aren’t simple swaps — they’re full
transformations: single doors turned into double entries, standard openings replaced with
8-foot fiberglass doors, and everything in between.
Each project tells its own story — why the homeowner wanted a change, what we
installed, and how it reshaped the entry.
A multipoint lock secures the door at several points (latch in the middle, top, and bottom) instead of one deadbolt. That provides better security, improved weather sealing, and greater door stability.

Why a Front Door Replacement Makes Such a Difference
A front door carries more visual weight than people think.
Change the scale, material, or the amount of light it lets in — and the whole house looks
refreshed.
A front door replacement can:
Add natural light without compromising privacy
Improve insulation and security
Update older brick, siding, or stucco instantly
Bring symmetry and proper proportions back to the entry
What We Assess in a Front Door Replacement Project
Every project starts with a conversation about these things:
What We Assess
Why It Matters
Material (fiberglass, steel, woodgrain finishes)
Determines durability, insulation, and long-term maintenance
Height & Width
Proper proportions make the biggest visual difference
Glass & Privacy
Controls natural light without exposing the interior
My Honest Advice on Front Door Replacement
If you’re replacing your front door, think long-term.
That door will open and close thousands of times and face every season we get here. It needs to feel
solid when it shuts — no rattles, no drafts, no gaps.
A good replacement doesn’t look “new.” It looks like it always belonged there.
I’ve been installing doors since 2001, and the best compliment I hear is: “It looks like
it’s always been part of the house.” That’s when you know the proportions,
finish, and installation were done right.
What Affects the Cost of a Front Door Replacement
I get this question on almost every call, so here’s the honest breakdown.
Factor
How It Affects Cost
Door material (fiberglass vs steel)
Fiberglass costs more but lasts longer and offers better insulation
Height/width
Larger, custom-sized units require frame modification and custom manufacturing
Glass (clear, frosted, stained)
Privacy, stained glass, and wrought-iron designs increase cost
Hardware
Multipoint locks add security, smooth operation, and long-term durability
Design options (plank, stripes, grooves, executive panels vs embossed)
Detailed or premium designs cost more; embossed steel is budget-friendly; executive panels
and deep grooves look richer and require more finishing
