6 Reasons Iron Doors Are a Homeowner’s Favorite
While the normal population spent the weekend watching Bridgeton Season 02, we, expert door makers as we are, did the same but with an emphasis on doors. Have you seen the supremely exquisite iron doors the houses in the ton have?
Apart from the classic hint of sophistication and chic, iron doors also come with all these benefits that make them a homeowner’s favorite.
Tighter Security
Iron entry doors are extremely strong and a little intimidating to be honest. It discourages intruders and thieves. Wrought iron and high-impact glass doors come in beautiful designs that offer sound, foolproof security without taking away from the aesthetic. Note that, iron doors are sturdy but not invincible, a little care from time to time goes a long way.
Durable And Long Lasting
Nothing lasts forever but iron doors certainly come very close. There are few materials that outlive iron. Iron stands its ground against the elements, be it chills, heat, hail, or torrential rains. These doors are also fairly impervious to rapidly changing weather, which means that the madhouse that Oklahoma currently is will not cause much harm to the iron.
Value for Money
These doors are a little on the pricier side as compared to other options, but that is not to say the money isn’t well spent. Since iron doors last so long, rarely take damage from the weather and only require minimum maintenance you won’t regret a penny. It is an investment that will keep paying you off for the years to come.
Let’s Light Adequate Light In
One of the most important pluses is that iron doors don’t obstruct light. If you like starting your mornings with the warm sun in your house, or maybe you like taking pictures in the golden hour, an iron door is a great option to consider. You might argue that windows can easily do the same job but it’s not so. Large open windows don’t offer the same level of security as a door. Iron doors keep out intruders (animals and humans alike) and let in light at the same time.
Customization Available
Sometimes old houses come with unusually sized doors. It can be tough finding a door that fits well. With an iron door, you don’t face this problem. Wrought iron is a malleable material that can be worked into different shapes and sizes. So instead of having to tear down the wall and reconstruct a new doorway, you can just find a door that meets your unique requirement.
You can also choose between iron doors of different thicknesses. The measurement goes, the higher the gauge the less thick it is. Depending on the style, purpose, and intended strength you can choose a door that is the right fit. Remember that thicker, stronger doors are costlier than the less opportune varieties but they will last way longer and be more secure for your family and property.
Boost Curb Appeal
Iron doors add value to your estate. The posh European look coupled with strength and durability is bound to impress buyers. Like we said, who’s not going to want a gate that looks like it’s straight out of some British Duke’s mansion? (yeah, we mean Bridgeton but make it subtle)
