Full Door Replacement
At Prestige Window Works, we recently replaced a basement entrance door in Scarsdale. The homeowner wanted to upgrade security and energy efficiency. The old door had cracks and drafts, affecting the basement temperature. After a consultation, we recommended a sturdy, insulated door designed to withstand the elements and improve insulation.
We started by removing the old door and frame. The team took care not to damage the surrounding structure. We inspected the frame for rot or moisture, which is critical for basement installations. In Scarsdale, where weather can be unpredictable, a solid foundation is essential. After reinforcing the frame, we ensured the new wood door would fit perfectly and create an airtight seal.
Next, we installed a custom solid wood door treated with a weather-resistant sealant. Wood doors provide excellent insulation, and this one helped stabilize the basement’s temperature year-round. The door’s rustic, natural finish matched the home’s exterior while boosting both security and energy efficiency. To further enhance insulation, we added high-quality weatherstripping around the door. This step blocked drafts and moisture, keeping the basement comfortable and dry through all seasons. We also installed a reinforced locking mechanism to maximize security.
After installing the new door, we ran tests to confirm smooth operation, tight sealing, and enhanced security. The homeowners were thrilled with the immediate improvement. Not only did the new door elevate the appearance of the basement entry, but it also improved the home’s energy efficiency and security.
