Love the timeless, elegant look of a traditional wooden door, but not too crazy about the maintenance or cost? Fiberglass, an increasingly popular option for home improvement projects, may be the door for you.
Fiberglass doors are usually made up of three important layers: an inner frame of wood, a core of foam, and a skin of fiberglass. Manufacturers can make it so that the door looks like actual wood—just pay a little extra, and not even professionals can tell the difference until they are up close.
With a fiberglass door, you save almost half the cost of a traditional wooden door and you get up to five times the insulation. Given these benefits, the fiberglass door is undoubtedly hard to beat.
