Reliabilt Steel Prehung Front Door vs Lily Ann Classic Prehung Fiberglass Door

Buy the Reliabilt if you want a steel door with a known warranty and a solid lock block for a standard right-hand inswing opening. Buy the Lily Ann if you want a fiberglass door with a mahogany-look finish and a factory prehung frame that resists dents, rot and warping. Both are 36 x 80 prehung exterior doors, so the real choice is steel versus fiberglass and primed versus finished. Owners of steel doors report dents from impacts; fiberglass owners report better dent and rot resistance but a higher step-up in construction.

  • Choose the Reliabilt if you want a primed steel door with a limited lifetime warranty and a 12-in solid wood lock block for a right-hand inswing entry.
  • Choose the Lily Ann if you want a fiberglass door with a mahogany finish that will not dent, rot or warp and comes prehung with weather stripping.

Questions and answers

Which is better for a coastal or humid climate?
The Lily Ann fiberglass door is the safer pick. Fiberglass does not rot or warp with moisture, while a steel door can rust where the skin is scratched or dented.
Which door lasts longer?
Fiberglass generally outlasts steel in wet or sunny exposures because it will not rust, dent or split. The Reliabilt's steel skin holds up well if painted and kept free of dents, and it carries a limited lifetime warranty.
Is the Lily Ann worth stepping up to over the Reliabilt?
Yes if you want a finished mahogany look and better dent and rot resistance without painting. The Reliabilt is the better fit if you want a stated warranty and a solid lock block and plan to paint.
Do both fit the same opening?
Both are 36 in wide by 80 in tall prehung doors. The Reliabilt lists a 4-9/16-in frame depth, so check your wall thickness against the Lily Ann's frame before ordering.
Which needs less maintenance?
The Lily Ann. Its finish is already applied and fiberglass does not need repainting to stay protected. The Reliabilt ships primed and needs paint to seal the steel.
Can I add glass or a different swing?
Neither listing shows glass options. The Reliabilt is right-hand inswing only; the Lily Ann's swing direction is not stated, so confirm it before you buy.
