Add Character to Your New Construction

One of the most common complaints of new construction homes is the lack of character.

For instance, installing crown molding, a wooden staircase, and trey ceilings are great ways to fill a new abode with character. Another great idea is to install a stained glass window. These colorful beautiful additions give your home old world flair. On this blog, you will learn how to add character to your new place by installing stained glass windows.

How Installing Storm Doors Can Enhance The Entry Points In Your Home

The entry points in your home are more than just places for you to get into and out of the house each day. If the doors are well-appointed they can spice up the appearance of the home and help to boost your curb appeal. Very dramatic-looking doors can really draw a lot of attention and get your visitors talking. You may currently only have a single door at your front and back entrances; however, adding storm doors to the mix can be very beneficial. Learn more about why you should let a contractor install storm doors at the entry points of your home:

Storm Doors Add To Your Security

A really great way for you to increase the level of security in your house is to install storm doors. It's like adding an extra barrier to your house, so it becomes more difficult for an intruder to find their way inside. You'll likely feel much more secure because the storm doors lend an air of protection that you might not be experiencing at the moment.

If you only have a single door at the front or back of your house, someone could easily kick it in. Some intruders can be quite the pros, knowing how to open up a traditional wooden entry door just by using a regular credit card. 

The storm doors will come with a lock on them that you can secure when you're entering and exiting the home. If a burglar does happen to try and get into your home then that storm door should buy you some time, giving you the chance to get out and find safety.

Installing Storm Doors Lets The Light In While Keeping The Bugs Out

When the weather is great and the sun is shining it's wonderful to be able to fling open the doors in your home. You'll be letting in more light, but if you don't have storm doors you could be rolling out the welcome mat for unwanted critters as well.

Once the storm doors are in place you can open your doors anytime you want to: simply lock the screen door and you'll be able to let the light come streaming in.

Storm doors come in a number of attractive models and designs. You should take some time to talk with an entry door installation contractor and discuss your options so you'll be informed when you pick out the perfect storm doors for your home.
