Front Door Replacement

Here you’ll find our before-and-after front door replacement projects.

Most of the jobs you’ll see here aren’t simple swaps — they’re full transformations: single doors turned into double entries, standard openings replaced with 8-foot fiberglass doors, and everything in between.

Each project tells its own story — why the homeowner wanted a change, what we installed, and how it reshaped the entry.

Why a Front Door Replacement Makes Such a Difference

A front door carries more visual weight than people think.

Change the scale, material, or the amount of light it lets in — and the whole house looks refreshed.

A front door replacement can:

  • Add natural light without compromising privacy
  • Improve insulation and security
  • Update older brick, siding, or stucco instantly
  • Bring symmetry and proper proportions back to the entry

Glass & Privacy

Controls natural light without exposing the interior

My Honest Advice on Front Door Replacement

If you’re replacing your front door, think long-term.

That door will open and close thousands of times and face every season we get here. It needs to feel solid when it shuts — no rattles, no drafts, no gaps.

A good replacement doesn’t look “new.” It looks like it always belonged there.

I’ve been installing doors since 2001, and the best compliment I hear is: “It looks like it’s always been part of the house.” That’s when you know the proportions, finish, and installation were done right.

What Affects the Cost of a Front Door Replacement

I get this question on almost every call, so here’s the honest breakdown.

Factor

How It Affects Cost

Door material (fiberglass vs steel)

Fiberglass costs more but lasts longer and offers better insulation

Height/width

Larger, custom-sized units require frame modification and custom manufacturing

Glass (clear, frosted, stained)

Privacy, stained glass, and wrought-iron designs increase cost

Hardware

Multipoint locks add security, smooth operation, and long-term durability

Design options (plank, stripes, grooves, executive panels vs embossed)

Detailed or premium designs cost more; embossed steel is budget-friendly; executive panels and deep grooves look richer and require more finishing
