If you live in a severe climate or your entry receives a lot of direct sunlight from a southern or western exposure, an overhang right above the door is required per the manufacturer's warranty. An overhang that protects the entire door from direct sunlight, rain and snow will increase the longevity of the door and will keep maintenance to a minimum.
If your entry is lacking an overhang or not adequately protected from direct sunlight and the element, please consider a fiberglass door instead.
At Doors4Home we offer a factory pre-hanging option. By selecting the pre-hanging option, you will receive a door hinged, prepped for handle and assembled in a frame (also called the door "jamb"). Factory pre-hanging ensures easy installation with a precise fit ready to install in the door opening, with no on-site assembly required. This reduces construction time and lowers project cost. If the pre-hung door is also factory finished, this further reduces steps and cost in the overall construction process. Each pre-hung door unit is weathertight and includes:
Doors are hung on rabbetted jambs kerfed (slotted) for weather-stripping. Jamb's width: To measure the width of the jamb, open the door and measure the jamb. Do not include any of the trim work or casing. For additional information read: what is my jamb width. 4-9/16" Jamb - The most common size for 2x4 framing. 6-5/8" Jamb - The most common size for 2x6 framing. * Custom jamb width's are available. Call us for details.
All pre-hung entryways utilize a unique protective jamb leg boots, which are hard rigid plastic parts machined to perfectly match the profile on the bottom edge of a jamb leg. We also use mull post boots at the bottom of all mull posts which are positioned between doors and sidelights. This method of assembly inhibits the hardwood jamb legs and mull posts from rotting over time due to the absorption of water up from the bottom edge of the entryway.
All prehung units use 3 ball-bearing hinges on 6'-8" tall doors and 4 hinges on 8'-0" tall doors. 1-3/4" thick doors use 4 inch hinges. Choose from these three hinge color options for your pre-hung entry door unit: Oil Rubbed Bronze, Satin Nickel or Flat Black.
Composite adjustable Aluminum sill is used to prevent from rotting, warping or deteriorating over time. Available in three finishes: Brass, Mill Aluminum or Bronze to match your entry and decor. Low-profile (ADA-compliant) sills are available, please call us for pricing. We can provide special in-swing or out-swing sills designed for Florida and coastal use, please call us for details and pricing.
High quality press on Q-lon weatherstripping. Made of polyethylene-clad urethane foam. The weatherstripping is applied at the top and sides of the door to keep out drafts.
Exterior brickmould is installed around the exterior perimeter of a door. The primary function of exterior brickmould is to seal gaps that occur between a wall and door. The installation of exterior brickmould prevents water from seeping into the wall from the outside. Exterior trim also serves a decorative function by providing visual contrast to the area around the doors. A standard WM180 milled brickmould is 2" wide and will match the jambs' wood species.
Standard Handle and Deadbolt Preparation We will pre-drill the door for a handle with 2-3/8" or 2-3/4" backset. Bore diameter: 2-1/8" Backset is the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the bore hole. Deadbolt is drilled 5-1/2" above the handle.
Selecting a factory finish option will produce a door unit with a beautiful, protective finish that promotes long life, beauty, and accentuates the natural allure and texture of the wood grain. GlassCraft has developed an innovative and environmentally sound factory finish option. Exclusive 10-step finishing system applies beautifully colored wood stains while adding multiple protective layers of crystal clear urethane finish coats to your wood door. Each coat is impregnated with ultraviolet UV-inhibitors and additional moisture blocking technology to keep your door looking beautiful. The process involves the deep penetration of tinted solution into the deep layers of each wood cell to prevent water or moisture absorption. The wood door is also processed through a laser-controlled convection-oven cure not just once, but three times to ensure the perfect wood surface curing. GlassCraft’s manufacturing finish facility is inspected and certified by the TCEQ (registration number CN603390188). Ordering a factory finish will add an additional 1-2 weeks to the delivery time.
