Front Entry Doors Boost Curb Appeal and Energy Efficiency

Your front door is an important part of your home’s exterior. It serves to protect your family, provide a welcoming entryway and boost curb appeal.

It should also insulate your home and keep out unwanted elements. Morgan Exteriors carries a wide selection of exterior doors that meet these requirements.

Fiberglass

Fiberglass, also known as FRP (for fiberglass-reinforced plastic) or GFRP, is a type of composite material made from glass fibers embedded in a polymer matrix. It is one of the most durable materials on Earth, and it is corrosion-resistant, abrasion resistant, electrically non-conductive and impervious to rot and mildew.

It can be molded into an endless number of shapes and sizes, which makes it an ideal material for building exteriors as well as equipment shelters and ductwork. Fiberglass can be infused with different resins to improve its strength and durability, or it may be coated to provide better weather resistance and color stability.

Located along Interstate 4 east of Tampa, Lakeland is the county seat of Polk County. It is a city of natural landscapes, cozy suburbs and a vibrant downtown. The downtown district is home to the Munn Park Historic and Antiques District, Florida Southern College, which boasts the largest on-site collection of Frank Lloyd Wright architecture, and several beautiful lakes, including Lake Mirror with its promenade and neoclassical Hollis Garden.

Wood

Your exterior doors should be tough against the elements and easy on the eyes. If your current home doors fall short in any of these areas, call Morgan Exteriors to upgrade them with high-quality new ones. We’ll install a front door or patio doors that provide lasting beauty and meaningful energy efficiency, security, and performance. With our French door options, you can enjoy a distinctive visual character and extra-wide openings for moving furniture or other large objects through.

Steel

The entry door is one of the primary focal points for a home’s exterior, which can either elevate or detract from curb appeal. An ugly or outdated front door is not only unsightly but can also compromise energy efficiency, security and a property’s value.

A steel front door is a long-lasting and durable choice for a new entry door. Unlike wood, fiberglass and other materials, steel doesn’t warp or absorb moisture. It’s a low maintenance option that only requires a simple cleaning with a damp cloth or the occasional coat of paint or varnish.

Steel doors can be customized with sidelites, decorative glass and other design elements. They can be made outswinging or inswinging to withstand different weather conditions and wind resistance. They also provide a higher R-value than other door types.

Aluminum

Your home is a valuable investment, and your doors are a key part of its appearance and energy efficiency. If your doors are worn out, outdated or poorly constructed, Morgan Exteriors can install well-made replacement doors that will serve you for years and increase the value of your Lakeland FL property. We provide sliding patio doors that glide smoothly long into the future, and French doors that add distinctive visual character while providing meaningful insulation to your home. Choose from a variety of colors, styles, decorative glass and sidelites to create your perfect door. Contact us today to schedule a free consultation.

Custom Screen Entry

A front door screened entry protects your home and porch from mosquitoes, flies and other insects during the day. It also keeps geckos, lizards and other reptiles out of the vestibule during the night, when they feed on the moths, beetles and other insects attracted to your exterior lighting. It also keeps yard debris, such as grass cuttings blown from the walkway, out of your home. A PCA decorative screen entry complements the style of your front door and enhances your home’s architecture. It also provides a safe way to open and close your doors to meet guests and neighbors.
