Reasons to Replace Your Home’s Doors
There are a lot of reasons Wichita homeowners choose to invest in new exterior doors. Sometimes doors are damaged or simply outdated. And in some cases, the earthquakes that have rattled south-central Kansas may have caused the door frames to shift so they no longer close correctly.
Whatever the reason, replacing entry doors adds security, utility and curb appeal to your home. Additionally, replacing exterior doors may even increase your home’s resale value. In fact, according to the 2023 Remodeling Cost vs Value Report, the national average return on investment for installing a new steel entry door is about 100%.
Energy-Efficient Exterior Door Features
Replacing an old exterior door with a properly-installed, well-fitting insulated door could be a great investment that can help you lower your energy bills. The U.S. Department of Energy offers energy performance ratings for different parts of the U.S. to make it easier to find energy-efficient exterior doors. When choosing your new front door, look for a National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) label that shows the door’s U-factor and solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC). A lower U-factor means the door will keep heat in your home better in the winter and a lower SHGC means the door blocks more solar heat in the summer.
Door material – Fiberglass exterior doors are among the most energy-efficient options you can choose. They’re durable, they don’t fade, and they’re made with a polyurethane foam core for insulation. You can even get them in a traditional wood look. Steel exterior doors made with an insulated core can be nearly as energy-efficient as fiberglass doors, but with a lower price tag. And while solid wood doors have a classic look, they don’t insulate as well as either steel or fiberglass.
Insulation – Insulated front doors made from fiberglass, composite or insulated wood minimize heat transfer into or out of a home. While glass doors can’t be insulated the same way, modern versions are typically made with multiple panes of glass with a space in between for insulation. Additionally, insulation should be placed around the frame of an exterior door during installation.
Low-E glass – Today’s sliding glass patio doors or storm doors are often made with low-emissivity (low-e) glass. This limits heat transfer through the door. Exterior doors with glass panels should have low-e glass coatings, too. Also, consider switching out sliding glass doors for swinging doors, since they offer a better seal.
Proper installation – Be sure to use high-quality weatherstripping to seal around the edges of the door and minimize air leaks and drafts, pre-hung exterior doors usually have weather-stripping already attached. Professional interior or exterior door installation will ensure your new doors open and close easily without sticking or dragging. A door installation company like PICO will ensure there are no leaks or gaps around your exterior door frame and the door latches securely for your safety.

Frequently Asked Questions
According to Forbes, the national average cost for installing a new front door ranges between $450 and $1700. Of course, the total price of replacing an outside door depends on the type of door selected, any modifications that need to be made to the door jamb or trim around the door, and any options like sidelites, smart locks, custom finishes or other components.
While an experienced DIY-er might be able to install a new front door, it’s a job best left to the professionals. An exterior door that’s not installed properly can result in water damage from improper sealing, caulking or weatherstripping. And if the door opening is no longer square because your home has settled, carpentry work will be required to ensure the new door is square and plumb. Improper installation could also prevent your new from closing securely. An experienced contractor like PICO will ensure your new door fits snugly so it doesn’t leak and works properly.
The life expectancy of a front door depends on the material and whether there’s been any maintenance performed. Most exterior doors that are protected by an overhang can last 30 years or more. Steel doors and fiberglass doors can last up to 70 years or more with proper maintenance, while most wood doors have a lifespan of 20-30 years. If you’re set on a wood entry door, cedar and mahogany are the longest-lasting options for wood exterior doors. No matter which door material you choose, keep in mind the weather stripping, gaskets and wood door frames may need to be replaced after 8-10 years. No matter the age, your front door will need to be replaced if it becomes damaged, cracked or broken.
