Do You Need A Garage or Entry Door?

You’ve come to the right place!

You can probably count on one hand the number of times you’ve walked or driven by someone’s front door and stopped or even backed up to look at it again. Most entry doors are contractor grade,  older and only somewhat functional. If it opens and closes, and doesn’t leak too much air,  homeowners usually don’t give their door much thought.  But quality doors can do much for a home.

 

Custom doors are much more energy efficient, open and close with ease, create an air-tight seal and offer genuine security. Have you heard the expression “break a leg?” They are almost an impenetrable barrier.

 

And then there’s esthetics. It’s commonly called “curb appeal” and it’s true: an elegant door makes a real statement in the way your home or garage looks, and the way you feel about it, not to mention its resale value.

 

Fiberglass or steel. We’ll say it: we think Provia Entry Doors are the most beautiful and best built doors from the best company on the market. Why? One reason is the Sugar Creek, Ohio-based company is a state of the art manufacturing facility—with 60 percent of the workforce comprised of members of the surrounding Amish community. A successful marriage of 21ststcentury technology and old world craftsmanship, these products are precisely what our customers want because they provide it all!

 

 

The doors are an entire system and are custom made for the exact width and height of your home’s ‘envelope’ and are custom stained or painted. Homeowners design their own glass for entry doo9rs from Provia’s extensive list of options.

 

Like the metal roofing products NH Exteriors uses, if you’re leaning toward a metal door for longevity, security and durability, Provia uses a heavier gauge domestic steel—20 gauge, in fact (the lower the gauge, the thicker the steel)—and superior standards of quality that provide for better color options and finishes. Incredibly Provia doors have as much as 300x more zinc on the outside than the standard steel doors offered by big box home improvement stores, with a factory-baked finish that includes a translucent top coat to protect from summer sun and fading. And if you are worried that it will “look” like a steel door, rest easy. There are dozens of styles that are indistinguishable from wood at 5-10 paces!

 

Hoping your new door will help save money on those outrageous heating bills? Provia earned the 2019 Energy Star® Partner of the Year award from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), recognizing their outstanding thermal efficiency.
