- Is a fiberglass door better than wood for an exterior entry?
- For most entries, yes. Fiberglass does not rot, swell or warp like wood and holds paint longer. It costs more than a basic steel door but less than premium wood.
- Will this fit my existing door opening?
- It fits a rough opening sized for a 36 in x 80 in door with a 4-9/16-inch frame, typical of 2x4 walls. Measure your opening before ordering; brick or thicker walls need a deeper frame.
- What does left-hand inswing mean?
- Standing outside facing the door, the hinges are on the left and the door swings into the house. If your hinges are on the right, you need a right-hand unit.
- Does it come with the frame and hardware?
- It is prehung, so the door comes in its frame with hinges. Handles, locksets and deadbolts are usually sold separately.
- How does this compare with a steel entry door?
- Fiberglass will not dent like steel and does not rust, and it can be repaired if damaged. Steel is usually stiffer and heavier for the same thickness, but dents show and cannot easily be fixed.
