Whether you are a first-time property buyer or not, you want to ensure that you have premium quality entry doors. Weather conditions can be harsh in Brookfield, IL, so it is wise to invest in the proper door type.
The best doors are fiberglass woodgrain doors. These doors look and feel like genuine mahogany or oak grain while offering superior durability.
However, the question remains as to how fiberglass entry doors get their woodgrain. Our team encourages you to explore fiberglass woodgrain doors’ design process, features, and benefits.
Wood Grain Fiberglass Doors
The design process of wood grain fiberglass doors starts with a silicone mold. The mold is an accurate copy of the most delicate details of the wood grain. Nickel vapor deposition technology uses the silicone copy to transfer into a fiberglass door mold. The results are astonishing because the fiberglass door looks and feels like natural wood, even up close.

Features of Wood Grain Doors
The frames are some of the most noteworthy features of a woodgrain fiberglass door. They measure 6 ⅝” x 1 ¼” with a vinyl wrap hardwood frame. The panels consist of a polyurethane foam core that provides thermal performance and reliability.
They are available in oak, mahogany, or rustic wood textures. The foam weather stripping composition offers a secure, tight seal around the door’s perimeter. This keeps cold winter air out.
Locks come in different colors and styles. There is a distinct uPVC exterior brickmold to match the frame finish. The PVC sidelite frames have co-extruded fins and screw cover cops. In addition, there is a large variety of glass options available for doorlites and sidelites.
The natural wood-like finish replicates an oak, cherry, or mahogany finish. Furthermore, embossed panel profiles create a classic appearance. All hinges are top-quality ball bearing hinges, and there are numerous configuration options for door sidelites.
Lastly, the adjustable sweep or superior double bubble sill ensures a perfect seal between the exterior drip cap, which drains water away from the entrance screw cap cover. Its purpose is to hide the adjustment screws.
Benefits of Wood Grain Fiberglass Doors
First, these doors serve their purpose with no seams or breaks in the outer coverings. They are impervious to moisture.
If you strive to reduce your carbon footprint on the impact on the environment, wood grain fiberglass is the way to go. Woodgrain fiberglass saves energy five times better than any other type of door. If that isn’t your goal, perhaps you would like to spend less on monthly utilities.
Another benefit of wood grain fiberglass doors is that they need less care. Unlike everything else in a home that requires some maintenance to keep it looking nice, fiberglass doors are the opposite. As long as you offer an ordinary amount of care, you can preserve your fiberglass entry door and its warranty for years to come.
