Exterior doors act as a threshold between the old and the new – a barrier that separates the comfort of your interior from the harsh elements of the exterior. At Window World of Baton Rouge we understand the importance that a door holds in your home. We believe it is vital to complement your home with a door that emits an inviting, secure tone – one that welcomes your guests with open arms, illuminates the comfort of your living room, infuses your home’s interior with seasonal spice and meshes with your home’s exterior.
Like your home’s insulation and HVAC system, exterior doors play an important role in your home’s energy performance. At Window World of Baton Rouge, our replacement doors are built with superior thermal insulation including Low-E glass, tightly sealed weatherstripping and additional energy-saving features so your home stays comfortable and your utility bills remain low.
The standard door is 80 inches tall, 36 inches wide, and 1 ⅜ inch thick. Exterior doors are the same height and width but are 1 ¾ inch thick instead.
To measure the size door that you need, start with the width of the door frame. Next, measure the height of the door frame. Afterward, measure the thickness of the door to get the full dimensions.
To paint a door, you can remove it from the hinges or paint it standing up. The first step is to prime the doors. Then, you can paint the door.
Consider the time of year when you are painting because you don’t want the temperature to be too hot or too cold. When you purchase a door from Window World, you can choose from a wide selection of door colors.
