Prehung Mahogany 6 Lite Entry Door with Sidelites vs Therma-Tru Grid Entry 68-in 80-in x 6-9/16-in Fiberglass 3/4 Lite Right-hand Inswing Black Painted Prehung Front Door with Sidelights

Buy the mahogany door and sidelites if you want a wood entry with real grain, a true divided lite pattern and a matching pair of 14-inch sidelites. Buy the Therma-Tru if you want a fiberglass slab that resists dents, rot and rust, comes prehung with weatherstripping and brickmould, and needs no finishing. The mahogany unit is the more distinctive, furniture-like entry; the Therma-Tru is the lower-maintenance one. Owners of the mahogany door praise the joinery, beveled glass and packaging, while fiberglass doors like the Therma-Tru are valued for holding paint and shrugging off weather.

• Choose the mahogany door if you want a warm wood entry with a 6-lite TDL design, a raised lower panel and two matching sidelites, and you are willing to stain or paint it.
• Choose the Therma-Tru if you want a prehung fiberglass door with sidelights, an insulating core and a factory black paint finish that resists dents, rot and rust.
