Recognizing the Signs: When to Replace Your Exterior Door(s)

Is your home feeling a little drafty? Can you hear your neighbors more than usual? Or maybe you feel it’s time for an aesthetic change? No matter the reason you are seeking a new exterior door, Allegheny Millwork and Lumber’s installation team is happy to conduct a free consultation to further explore you and your home’s needs. But how do you know when you need a new exterior door? Here are a few signs your exterior door(s) may need replaced:

• Damaged or Deteriorated Material: If your exterior door is made of wood and shows signs of rot, warping, or cracking, it may be time for a replacement. Similarly, if a fiberglass or steel door has dents, rust, or other significant damage, it may be more cost-effective to replace it rather than attempting repairs.
• Drafts or Air Leakage: If you feel drafts or notice air leakage around your exterior door, it indicates poor insulation and sealant. This can result in energy loss and discomfort, indicating the need for a new, better-insulated door.
• Difficulty Opening or Closing: Exterior doors that have become difficult to open, close, or lock properly may indicate structural issues or a misalignment. If adjustments or repairs don’t solve the problem, it may be necessary to replace the door to ensure smooth operation and proper security.
• Outdated Security Features: Older doors may have outdated or insufficient security features, such as weak locks or flimsy frames, making them vulnerable to break-ins. Upgrading to a new door with modern, robust security features can provide enhanced peace of mind.
• Noise and Privacy Concerns: If your current door doesn’t provide sufficient sound insulation, and you’re frequently disturbed by outside noise, it may be beneficial to replace it with a door that offers better soundproofing properties. Similarly, if you feel that your privacy is compromised due to a lack of privacy glass or insufficient door design, it might be time for an upgrade.
• Aesthetic Upgrades: Sometimes, the need for door replacement is driven by a desire to update the appearance of your home. If your current door is outdated, doesn’t match your home’s style, or simply doesn’t reflect your preferences, installing a new exterior door can give your home a fresh and appealing look.
