Make an entrance

The first aspect of a home many people notice is the front door.

In real estate terms it is called kerb appeal, and there is nothing easier if you want to make a statement than to freshen a front door with a new coat of paint, or by installing a custom wood or steel door.

The average life expectancy for a wooden entrance door is between 20 and 30 years, depending on the harshness of the climate it is exposed to.

If you are looking to install a new door, you can expect to pay an average of $1450 to $1950 for a new single steel frame to be installed, $950 to $1550 installed for a wooden door, and $1800 to $3500 for a fully installed fibreglass door.
