This Portland home needed a new front door and the homeowner desired something unique and visually appealing. They turned to Pella after hearing about the wide variety of finishes and designs available.
Fiberglass Front Door Delivers Durability
High on the homeowner’s wish list was a front door that looks like wood, but doesn’t require a lot of maintenance. The Pella representative recommended a fiberglass front door with a wood-grain Mahogany finish. This offered the homeowner the best of both worlds: the look of wood and the durability of fiberglass. High-performance, low-maintenance fiberglass front doors are dent-resistant and won’t rust or corrode. The new front door can withstand extreme northwestern weather and requires little upkeep to maintain dependable performance year-round.
Front Door Accessories Dress Up Entryway
While durability was a big win, front door accessories were an added benefit. The clavos and hinge straps are stylish add-ons that further the rustic style of this front door. The matte black hardware complements the décor and ties it all together. Situated on both sides of the door, half-light sidelights add architectural interest and fill the entryway with natural light. To make a lasting impression in terms of curb appeal and create a cohesive look, the homeowner decided to get matching hinge straps to put on their garage doors.
A White-Glove Service Experience
For the homeowners, the best part of this replacement project was the start-to-finish service they received from the Pella team. Their sales representative ensured the process flowed smoothly, helping with product selection based on the homeowner’s design and performance requirements. From measuring and ordering the right product to ensuring proper installation and clean up, the Pella expert offered support every step of the way.
