- Is this door rated for hurricane zones?
- Yes. It carries WBD windload-resistant and impact door approvals, and the glass is 1-inch insulated and tempered. Check that your local code accepts these ratings for your opening size.
- What does 4-lite mean?
- It means the door has four glass panes in a vertical stack, paired here with a sidelite. The glass is decorative and insulated.
- What size opening is this for?
- It is a 96-inch (8-foot) single door with a sidelite, so the rough opening is wider than the door slab. Confirm the exact unit width and handing with the seller before ordering.
- Is the glass private?
- The glass is decorative texture, which softens the view in and out. It is not described as frosted or obscure-rated, so ask the seller if full privacy matters.
- What warranty comes with it?
- A limited lifetime warranty from the manufacturer. Ask the seller what it covers, since finish and glass terms often differ from the slab.
- How does it compare with a wood impact door?
- The fiberglass slab resists rot, moisture and dents that wood can suffer in coastal weather, and it needs less finishing upkeep. Wood offers more grain and stain options, but it demands more maintenance in wet, salty air.
