Are steel insulated entrance doors superior to wood?
This answer depends on your needs and taste so I will list a few considerations for each. Wood: We recommend cedar because it weathers well. Wood doors can literally be customized to any size or shape with plenty of glazing options. Repairs can be done to most wood doors. Wood doors can be stained to practically any finish color needed. Wood doors come pre-hung for new installations. Steel: Steel doors are usually cheaper than wood. Steel door come pre-hung for either new installation or retro-fit instsallation. Steel doors usually come in standard sizes and styles. Steel doors are susceptible to chips and dents, which are usually not able to be repaired.
