Endless Door Options, No Bad Choices
If looking for new front doors today was like it was many years ago, you’d be quite disappointed. The choice of materials used to be limited to wood. Plus, you could rarely find a door that combines nice aesthetics and durability.
Typically, you had to choose between a plain-looking but durable door and a nice-looking one that was less durable. Today, however, St. Louis homeowners have many attractive options for modern door materials, and the design possibilities are practically endless.
Steel and fiberglass doors are now as attractive as traditional wood doors. Their designs and styles have certainly improved over the last few years. The great thing about them is that they offer a wood-like appearance without the issues commonly associated with wood.
