How a New Steel Entry Door Can Make Your Home Safer, More Efficient, and More Beautiful
Steel entry doors can help improve home security because they are strong, durable, and more resistant to forced entry than many traditional door options. American Window & Door installs quality steel entry doors for Memphis-area homeowners who want added security without sacrificing the appearance of their home.
Your New Front Entry Door - Safety and Beauty
Your front door is more than just an entrance—it's one of the first things people notice about your home.
It also plays a critical role in your home's security, energy efficiency, and curb appeal.
If your current entry door is dented, warped, difficult to close, or simply outdated, it may be time to consider a new steel entry door.
Modern steel doors have come a long way, offering homeowners exceptional strength, beautiful design options, and impressive energy performance.
At American Window & Door, we're proud to install ProVia® Legacy™ Steel Entry Doors, giving homeowners throughout the Memphis area a premium entry door that's built to last.
Why Choose a Steel Entry Door?
Many homeowners assume steel doors are plain or strictly functional, but today's premium steel entry doors combine security with style.
Whether your home has a traditional, modern, farmhouse, or craftsman design, there are countless options to complement your home's architecture while providing lasting performance.
1. Exceptional Security
Your front door is one of your home's primary lines of defense.
ProVia Legacy Steel Entry Doors are constructed with 20-gauge steel, providing approximately 49% more galvannealed steel than many standard 24-gauge steel doors.
This added strength helps improve rigidity, durability, and resistance to everyday wear.
Additional security features include:
- Reinforced lock and deadbolt area
- One-piece steel edge construction
- Heavy-duty engineering for long-term strength
- Premium hardware options from trusted manufacturers like Schlage®, Trilennium®, Hoppe®, Emtek®, and Brinks®
2. Outstanding Energy Efficiency
Your entry door can have a surprising impact on your home's comfort and energy costs.
ProVia Legacy Steel Doors are filled with high-density polyurethane foam and incorporate advanced thermal barriers, weatherstripping, composite endcaps, and an adjustable threshold to help reduce drafts and heat transfer.
Most models meet ENERGY STAR® certification requirements.
That means:
- Better year-round comfort
- Reduced air leaks
- Improved energy efficiency
- Lower heating and cooling costs
3. Built to Handle Everyday Life
Unlike wood doors that may warp, crack, or split over time, quality steel entry doors are designed for exceptional durability.
ProVia Legacy Steel Doors are engineered to resist:
- Warping
- Cracking
- Shrinking
- Everyday wear
They're also low maintenance, requiring far less upkeep than many traditional wood doors while maintaining their appearance for years.
4. Beautiful Design Choices
Security doesn't mean sacrificing style.
ProVia Legacy Steel Entry Doors are available in:
- Smooth finishes
- Realistic woodgrain textures
- Numerous panel styles
- Decorative glass options
- Sidelites
- Transoms
- Dozens of paint colors
- Rich woodgrain stain finishes
Whether you prefer a bold modern entrance or a timeless traditional design, there's a style to fit your home.
5. Custom Built for Your Home
No two homes are exactly alike.
That's why ProVia builds Legacy Steel Entry Doors in custom widths and heights, with sizing available in 1/8-inch increments for an excellent fit.
You can even customize the interior and exterior finishes independently to complement both your home's exterior and interior décor.
Signs It's Time to Replace Your Entry Door
Your current front door may be ready for replacement if you notice:
- Drafts around the door
- Rising energy bills
- Difficulty opening or closing
- Rust or corrosion
- Dents or visible damage
- Water intrusion
- Fading or peeling finish
- Outdated appearance
- Loose locks or hardware
- Security concerns
Replacing an aging entry door can dramatically improve your home's appearance while enhancing comfort and security.
