Discover the advantages of installing a sturdy steel front door that will stand the test of time, and discover the unique benefits and safety-focused features of the ProVia® Legacy steel door.
What's the Importance of Choosing a Safe and Secure Entry Door?
Did you know that 34% of the time, burglars use the entry door to break into homes?
It might be difficult to believe someone would break into your home through an entryway that's in plain sight, but the truth is, doors with exposed hinges, faulty hardware, or fragile materials are no match for experienced thieves. Determined burglars can bust through flimsy doors, and breakable locks provide an easy pathway into your home.
Industry-Leading Safety Features of ProVia Legacy Steel Doors
Steel front doors are a great solution to protect your home from unwanted visitors. They're incredibly strong, so if someone tries to kick them in, they won't break. North Georgia Replacement Windows loves these unique security features of ProVia Legacy steel doors:
Durable Steel Exterior
ProVia's 20-gauge steel doors are made with nearly 50% more galvanized steel than a standard 24-gauge steel door, offering double the amount of protection for you and your family.
Additionally, the edges and face of these steel doors are one continuous piece of steel, which enhances your new door's durability and long-lasting strength.
Your steel door also comes with a foam filling administered by a computer-controlled process to bolster your door with extra strength while providing maximum energy efficiency.
Composite Endcaps
ProVia's Legacy steel door includes composite endcaps on the top and bottom of the door. This adds rigidity and energy efficiency. Also, the fact that they are composite and not wood gives you peace of mind that you don't have to worry about rot or moisture absorption.
Mechanical Interlocks
ProVia's Legacy steel door has an exclusive tab and slot system of mechanical interlocks that boosts the door's structural strength.
Durable Hardware
When hardware isn't made from or installed with solid and secure materials, it can become an enticing way for intruders to enter your home.
ProVia's Legacy doors come with a rigid composite lock block designed to reinforce your door's deadbolt and locking areas. In addition, a steel plate is installed behind the door jamb for added security. You can also choose from a wide range of hardware, with some options designed for enhanced security, like the touchpad electronic deadbolt.
Innovative Threshold System
ProVia's Z-AC threshold system uses self-adjusting technology to provide a tight, lasting seal at the bottom of your entry door. The riser is engineered to move up and down when the door is opened or closed to keep unwanted drafts out of your home. However, it also provides an extra secure barrier between your home and outsiders.
