Replacing your older entry doors can significantly improve your home’s energy efficiency, security, and resale value. Modern doors often provide up to 30% better energy efficiency than older solid wood or hollow-core models.
According to the 2025 Cost vs. Value Report, a new fiberglass or steel entry door can recoup between 186% and 216% of its cost at resale, effectively potentially doubling your investment in added home value.
Older doors are often responsible for significant heat loss—up to 25% of a home's total heat loss can be attributed to inefficient doors and windows. Modern ENERGY STAR® certified doors are typically 25% more efficient than standard older doors.
New doors use advanced weatherstripping and insulated cores (often polyurethane foam) to eliminate cold spots and drafts. Solid-core modern doors, particularly steel and fiberglass, are more effective at blocking out street noise than older hollow-core versions.
