Best door choice for energy efficiency and curb appeal?
We recently decided to update our porch a bit, aesthetics and efficiency were important to us, we settled on https://www.elegantentrydoors.ca/entry-steel-doors/ steel doors and so far they are great. They are insulated with a polyurethane core which really cuts down on heat loss and the seals are strong too. On the outside our door has a panel design with frosted glass inserts so it fits in well with our older house but still looks modern. Another big plus, we didn’t have to repaint or reseal anything after installation, unlike wood. Friends have even complimented the new look and our energy bill went down noticeably last winter. Highly recommend trying steel if you want efficiency without sacrificing style.
When designing our new living space, we were looking for a sleek and functional solution to connect the indoors with the garden. Lift and slide doors turned out to be ideal — they save space, provide excellent insulation, and the large glass panels let in tons of natural light. A great choice for anyone renovating.
