Signs You Need
a New Sliding Door
Doors serve a variety of functions in your home. First and foremost, they keep you and your family protected. They also play a key role in your home’s energy efficiency and they can even be used strategically to increase the amount of natural light you receive.
Many homeowners deal with doors that should ultimately be replaced for far too long, ignoring problems such as:
- Difficulty opening and closing
- Misalignment of the door latch
- Frame misalignment
- Broken and/or hard-to-use lock
- Deteriorated weather stripping
- Drafts and other signs that the seal is broken, such as ants and insects
Of course, not all of these problems will require a door installation. They can, however, present you with the opportunity to replace an eyesore with something much more elegant and functional.
