The 2015 Cost vs. Value report from Remodeling Magazine lists the recoup values for a fiberglass door replacement at 72% and a steel door replacement at 101.8%, respectively. And for good reason: Entry doors have a high value because they can affect the impressions guests get of our home and, by extension, of who we are. It\u2019s human nature to want to be liked \u2013 even admired \u2013 by others, so it\u2019s important that our homes look warm and welcoming to people whose opinions we value. Our entry doors play a major role in making people feel comfortable; old, ugly, peeling, or worn doors just don\u2019t make for a good first impression. Besides, doors that are just crying out for a replacement are both inefficient and risky, opening your home to potential damage from the elements, energy loss, and decreased overall comfort, to name a few things.<\/p>\n

But how do you tell when, exactly, you need to get your door replaced? Check for these warning signs.<\/p>\n
