Is a fiberglass door better than steel for an exterior entry?

Fiberglass resists dents and rust and does not dent like steel, and it handles moisture better than wood. Steel is usually stiffer and cheaper, but fiberglass holds up longer in humid or coastal air.

What does the prehung system include?

The door arrives set in its frame with the threshold, hinges and weatherstrip installed. That means less framing work on site than buying a slab alone.

How much light does the 3/4 lite let in?

The glazed panel covers most of the door's height, so it brings in substantial daylight. The lower solid section still gives some privacy at the bottom.

Can I paint or stain it?

Fiberglass takes paint well and can be finished to match trim. Stain looks less convincing than on wood, so paint is the safer choice for a wood-grain look.

How do I pick the handing?

Handing sets which side the hinges sit on and which way the door swings. Measure your opening and match it to the swing you want before ordering, since it cannot be changed later.
