CREATIVE ENTRYWAYS having more than 85 cumulative years of experience building, designing and engineering wood doors are excited to introduce three very important features.
Our doors have been tested and approved to meet a Design Pressure (DP) rating of 45. In order to qualify for a DP 45 rating, our doors were subjected to extreme testing conditions that simulate hurricane force winds up to 150 mph. Our doors also qualify for TDI (Texas Department of Insurance).
Door Jamb constructed of a paintable hard polymer shell with an interior close cellular structure that prevents water absorption while offering 2 times the screw holding strength than wood.
Prefinished at our factory allows us to finish all edges of the panels, rails and styles prior to assembly of the doors. This is extremely important for long life of the doors, minimizing panel issues. Our finish is a 9 step oil-based polyurethane process.
Door itself is very high quality the glass is even more beautiful in person. Overall I am very happy with this purchase which was a leap of faith considering the price point. Delivery was much faster than anticipated. Reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because of 2 negatives. 1) bottom door rubber seal was crushed likely due to heavy weight… door having probably been stored upright while in storage. 2) door step is made of a hard plastic, not metal. At this price point, should be aluminummetal. Since I used my existing door framestep, this was not an issue for me and I replaced the bottom rubber seal with a higher quality one. Highly recommend having a professional do the installation, as I did because there is a lot more than meets the eye.. Renee. Head Of Chezzetcook, NS. Thu Feb 01 2024
