Entry doors with sidelights
An entry door with sidelights in front of your home enhances curb appeal while also allowing natural light into a foyer area. Its practical advantage is to keep unwanted pests and reptiles out of your home at night. In Florida unprotected front doors are a magnet for mosquitos, house flies and other insects that invade during the day and at night lizards and geckos are drawn to porch lighting and enter through an unprotected vestibule.

Prehung doors
A pre-hung door includes a door slab, frame, and hinges that are ready to install into a rough opening in a wall. They are often used in new construction, but also provide an easy solution for replacing an existing interior or exterior door.
In addition to being more secure, pre-hung doors can be easier for installers to work with than slab doors. They have a precise fit that makes them less vulnerable to air leakage and squeaks, and they come weather-tight. This helps to maintain a comfortable home temperature and reduce drafts, moisture, and pest infiltration.
However, they can be more expensive to buy and install than slab doors. And, they can limit design options and may not be a good option for do-it-yourselfers. It can take a skilled carpenter a full day to build a door frame, hang the slab, and install the door knob and deadbolt lock. That’s a lot of money for a simple project.
