- Is this door left-hand or right-hand inswing?
- It is left-hand inswing: the hinges are on the left as you look at the door from outside, and it opens inward. Check your opening against that before ordering.
- What size rough opening does it need?
- The door is 36 in by 80 in in a 6-9/16 in frame. A prehung unit of this size typically needs a rough opening about 2 in wider and 2 in taller than the door, so roughly 38 in by 82 in; confirm with the installation instructions.
- Does it come with a frame and hinges?
- Yes. It is a prehung door, so the slab comes mounted in its frame with hinges. Knobs, locksets and deadbolts are usually sold separately.
- Can I paint it a different color?
- The factory finish is white. Steel doors can be repainted, but prep the surface and use an exterior-grade paint made for metal so it holds up outdoors.
- Does it have glass or a window?
- No. This is a solid steel door with no glass, so it gives privacy and security but no daylight.
- How does it compare with a fiberglass front door?
- Fiberglass resists dents better than steel and can mimic wood grain, but it usually costs more. Steel is heavier and stronger against impact but can dent, and a dent is hard to hide.
