- Is fiberglass better than a wood front door?
- Fiberglass resists dents, rot and warping and needs far less upkeep than wood. It can mimic a stained woodgrain look, which this Oakcrest does.
- What does left-hand inswing mean?
- The door hinges on the left as you look at it from outside and swings inward. Check your opening's swing direction before ordering, since it cannot be reversed.
- What size opening does it fit?
- The unit is 64 inches wide by about 79 inches tall with a 4-9/16-inch frame depth. That fits a rough opening sized for a door plus sidelights, so measure your frame before buying.
- Does it come with the frame and sidelights?
- Yes. It is a prehung single door with sidelights in a stained frame, so the door, frame and glass panels arrive as one unit.
- Can I paint or restain it?
- Fiberglass doors with a stained finish can be repainted or refinished, but the woodgrain texture shows through. Follow the manufacturer's prep steps for fiberglass.
- Is it worth the premium over a steel door?
- Fiberglass resists dents and rot and can carry a stained woodgrain look that steel does not. Steel is usually the lower-cost option, but it dents and needs repainting if the finish chips.
