Recently, I’ve been getting a lot of questions about the difference between wood doors and fiberglass doors. Which one is more durable and strong? Which door will help the energy efficiency in a home the most? It will surprise you to know the answers to these questions.
I Want A Wood Door . . . Or do I?
Lots of people want the look of a wood door, but old wood doors don’t have the best energy efficiency, safety, or durability. The great thing about new front doors from Conservation Construction of Texas is that you can get the look and feel of real wood but it’s made of fiberglass. Fiberglass has all the high end qualities that wood lacks. They are insulated to keep your home at a more stable room temperature all year long. They are extremely safe. Finally, they are durable against every day wear and tear. Your door will be as energy efficient and beautiful today as the day we installed it!
Extreme Energy Efficiency
The bottom line with fiberglass vs. wood doors is that fiberglass doors offer better insulation for heat and cold, and offer more efficient energy performance. This is a definite win-win for both you and for the environment. According to door industry research, fiberglass doors are five times more energy efficient than wood doors. Just think of how much money you could be saving
Durability
Wood doors truly are a technology of the past when you consider fiberglass upgrades. Unlike wood, fiberglass resists weather and lasts longer. Wood can swell and deteriorate, while fiberglass is extremely resistant to water and wind. The material never warps, rots or rusts and can stand strong for decades. As far as performance goes, the fiberglass entry system reduces heat transfer. These properties all make it an improvement from wood doors.
Fade Resistance
The real wood of your old door may fade over time, but the real wood look of a fiberglass door will not. That’s because we use special technologies that make the paint bind to the door. It resists fading from harsh UV rays. This means it will remain vibrant and pristine looking for years to come.
Lifetime Warranties
Possibly the best thing about fiberglass doors is that if you acquire one from Conservation Construction of Houston you’ll get a lifetime warranty included. This covers the entire door so no matter what your door is covered for life.
Final Thoughts
There is a big difference in wood and fiberglass doors. Wood doors are an older technology that doesn’t protect your home as well as new fiberglass doors. Old wood doors can rot, warp, and aren’t energy efficient. If you are looking for a new revolutionary technology that will give you lower energy costs and durability for life look no further than a fiberglass door.
