What Is a Fiberglass Door?

Fiberglass is a reinforced plastic material that is embedded in resin, resulting in a strong material that can be molded into almost any shape. Fiberglass doors, in particular, mimic the look and feel of wood doors, but they are less vulnerable to damage. While wood doors can rot and warp over time, fiberglass doors are designed to be durable for the long term. 

Fiberglass doors are made of the following components: 

• The frame, which is made from a high-strength composite material or wood
• The core, which has polyurethane insulating foam to help with soundproofing and insulation
• The exterior, which is made from high-impact compression-molded fiberglass

We proudly install doors from only the highest quality manufacturers like Pella, ProVia, and Therma-Tru. 

Benefits of Choosing a Fiberglass Entry Door

Are you curious to know why so many local homeowners choose fiberglass entry doors for their homes? Here are some of the benefits of choosing this material: 

They’re low-maintenance: Fiberglass doors continue to look great with very little upkeep on your part. You can use a damp cloth to wipe it down if you notice dirt on your front door. 

They’re secure: Compared to wood doors, fiberglass has a more solid structure and higher-quality hardware. This makes it a more secure option for your entryway. 

They’re durable: Fiberglass entry doors can better withstand the elements compared to other door materials. Over time, your fiberglass door won’t shrink, swell, rust, warp, or rot. 

They’re energy-efficient: If you want to help keep your home at a more comfortable temperature, a fiberglass door can help. Fiberglass doors have a higher R-value than wood doors so they offer better insulation. This can help lower your energy bill by reducing strain on your heating and cooling system.
