ProVia Entry Doors
Valdicass works with ProVia for residential front-entry door projects.
Depending on the selected product and configuration, homeowners can consider options including:
- Fiberglass entry doors
- Steel entry doors
- Single and double-door configurations
- Sidelights
- Transoms
- Decorative and privacy glass
- Different exterior and interior finishes
- Hardware options
- Different panel and glass designs
Available features vary by product and configuration, allowing you to design the new entrance around both the home’s architecture and the homeowner’s preferences.
Fiberglass Entry Doors
Fiberglass is a popular material for homeowners who want a relatively low-maintenance entry door with extensive design possibilities.
Depending on the selected ProVia product, fiberglass doors can provide different surface textures, finishes, panel designs, glass configurations, and colors.
Some products can provide the appearance of a traditional wood door without using a solid wood exterior surface.
Steel Entry Doors
ProVia steel entry doors provide another option for residential entrance projects.
Consider steel if homeowners prefer its construction, appearance, available configurations, and price point.
Valdicass can help compare fiberglass and steel products based on the opening, design preferences, desired features, and project budget.
Customize Your Front Entrance
Replacing an entry door doesn’t necessarily mean replacing it with the same configuration.
Depending on the existing opening and project scope, homeowners may be able to consider:
- Single entry doors
- Double entry doors
- One or two sidelights
- Transoms
- Decorative glass
- Privacy glass
- Different panel designs
- Interior and exterior colors
- Woodgrain-style finishes
- Hardware and lock options
For projects requiring changes to the existing opening, Valdicass can evaluate the additional construction and finishing work involved.
Glass, Sidelights & Transoms
Glass can significantly change the appearance of a front entrance and how much natural light enters the home.
Depending on the ProVia product selected, options can include decorative glass, privacy glass, doorlites, sidelights, and transoms.
The right configuration depends on the entrance dimensions, desired privacy, architectural style, and selected door system.
Entry Door Energy Performance
Energy performance depends on the complete door system rather than simply whether the door is fiberglass or steel.
Factors can include the door construction, glass configuration, weatherstripping, threshold, frame, and installation.
Homeowners comparing entry doors should review the specifications of the actual ProVia product and configuration they’re considering.
Professional Entry Door Installation
Proper installation is particularly important with exterior doors because the complete opening needs to operate, close, seal, and drain as intended.
Depending on the project, entry door replacement can involve:
- Measuring the existing opening
- Removing the existing door and frame
- Evaluating the opening
- Preparing the sill and surrounding area
- Positioning and securing the new door system
- Insulating and sealing around the frame
- Adjusting door operation
- Installing applicable interior and exterior trim
- Finishing surrounding exterior details
The exact scope depends on the existing conditions and selected door configuration.
Entry Doors for La Grange Park Homes
La Grange Park includes homes with different architectural styles, exterior materials, and front-entry configurations.
A replacement door should therefore be selected with the entire entrance in mind—not simply the door slab.
Color, glass, hardware, sidelights, surrounding trim, siding, masonry, and other exterior details can all affect the finished appearance.
Valdicass can help homeowners evaluate these elements together when planning a new entrance.
More Exterior Door Options
Entry doors are only one type of exterior door Valdicass offers.
For backyard, deck, and patio openings, we also install Pella® patio doors, including sliding and hinged configurations depending on the selected product.
