Our old entrance door had begun to feel loose around the frame, and we could sometimes notice colder air near the threshold in winter. We wanted a replacement that felt more substantial, but we also had to keep the renovation within a reasonable budget. Steel seemed like a practical option because the simple designs suited our house and gave the entrance the solid feel we wanted. Affordable durable steel entry doors this pre-winter. We chose an insulated model and replaced the worn weatherstripping at the same time. The hallway feels more comfortable now, especially during windy evenings, and the door closes with a much more reassuring fit. I think the full installation made as much difference as the steel itself.
