How Safe Are Steel Doors?
Happy Friday to all who are reading today’s article. If you are looking for a new front door you’ve come to the right place for information. Steel doors are a great option for homeowners, and they provide supreme protection against the elements. Read the article to see how steel doors can protect you from a multitude of things.
How Do Steel Doors Keep You Safe?
Steel entry doors provide more protection because they are made of a thicker, more protective material. It is harder to break into because of the strong hold that they provide in the frame of the house. Overall, steel is a strong and sturdy door material. Steel will last a long time, performing well for years. Steel doors don’t warp like wood either. The edges and face skin of our steel doors are one continuous piece of steel for strength and durability. Our 20-gauge steel doors give you 49% more galvanized steel than a standard 24-gauge door. This means they are better at protecting you against forced entry.
Other Benefits
Along with being highly secure, steel entry doors prove to be some of the most durable and long-lasting on the market, especially when you choose a door from Conservation Construction. That’s because we use a special durafuse technology that binds the paint to the door itself. This means it’s incredibly stable and able to withstand everyday wear and tear with ease.
How Do They Look
Sure steel doors are secure, but how do they look? Aesthetically, steel doors can be painted or finished in any style. They can even be made to look like real wood. You get to design the door from the ground up so you get to choose the color, hardware, embossing and custom glass. With it being so scratch resistant you’ll get vibrant color that looks brand new for years to come.
Protection Against Elements
It is true that a solid slab of steel would not insulate your home very well, but steel doors aren’t solid slabs. They are actually two pieces of steel with an area known as a thermal break on the interior. This break area helps prevent temperature loss because it is not transferring outside as quickly. At Conservation Construction of Houston our doors are filled with a specialty foam that helps insulate, keeping your home a more stable room temperature all year long.

Steel Doors are great at keeping your house safe from the elements and from forced entry. They also have added benefits of scratch resistance and energy efficiency.
