Fiberglass vs Steel: Making the Right Choice
Fiberglass Advantages
Won't dent: Superior impact resistance compared to steel. Won't rust: Ideal for coastal areas and humid climates. Authentic woodgrain: Textured surfaces look and feel like real wood. Stainable: Can be stained like real wood for custom looks. Better insulation: Fiberglass expands/contracts less than steel for improved energy efficiency.
When Steel Makes Sense
Budget-conscious: Steel typically costs 20-30% less. Modern aesthetic: Clean, smooth finish for contemporary homes. Rigid feel: Some prefer the solid, heavy feel of steel. Not sure which to choose? Book a free consultation to see samples and discuss your priorities.

Simple Care for Lasting Beauty
Fiberglass doors are built to be low maintenance. Follow these simple steps to keep your door looking and performing like new.
Cleaning Surfaces
Clean with mild soap and water using a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh solvents that could damage the finish.
Weatherstripping
Inspect annually for wear or damage. Clean with mild soap and water to maintain flexibility and seal integrity.
Moving Parts
Lubricate hinges and lock mechanisms annually with a silicone-based lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
Stain Maintenance
For stained fiberglass doors, inspect the clear topcoat annually. Reapply a clear UV-resistant topcoat every 2-3 years or when signs of fading appear.
Pro Tip: Extending Finish Life
Doors with southern exposure or dark colors may require more frequent inspection and maintenance. Applying a high-quality car wax to painted fiberglass surfaces once a year can help protect the finish from UV damage and making cleaning easier.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do fiberglass doors really look like wood?
Yes! Modern fiberglass doors feature authentic woodgrain textures that are molded from real wood. When stained, they're nearly indistinguishable from real wood doors.
How long do fiberglass doors last?
With proper maintenance, fiberglass doors can last 30+ years. They won't rot, warp, or rust like wood or steel doors.
Can I stain a fiberglass door myself?
Yes, but we recommend factory-applied stain for best results. Factory finishes are cured and more durable than field-applied stains.
Do multipoint locks really help?
Yes. They improve seal compression and security when properly installed. The even pressure across the door also helps maintain alignment and reduces warping over time-especially important for fiberglass doors in our climate. Note: Multipoint locks are required for 7' and 8' tall doors to prevent warping due to the increased surface area and stress on taller slabs.
Are fiberglass doors more expensive than steel?
Fiberglass doors typically cost 20-30% more than comparable steel doors, but offer superior dent resistance, won't rust, and provide authentic wood aesthetics.
