Yikes.... we desperatly need a new front door I have questions....
My front door is 35 years old, ( about), this afternoon while leaving it was not closing right. DH played arund with it and the frame is not good, but fixed it and it locked. We need a new door, do not want to get a white one, want it to be in the brown family- do they come in colors? What is a good door to get? where do you recommend we go? How expensive is this going to be? We were thinking of going to Lowe's, or Elegant Entries... anyone have feedback on them, and how long will it take to get it and installed? TIA!

Goto Lowes or Home Depot. Elegant entries is a good place to look, but will come in to be very expensive compared to Lowes and Home Depot.
We did a white door. We got ours at Home Depot for $239. It is steel. We love it.
There are plenty of different colored doors and wood doors at home depot or lowes
good luck

We looked at Lowes and Home Depot and didn't like the quality, they looked and felt lightweight - we got ours from precision entryway - they have a website

We got ours at Lowes. It is a fiberglass door that looks like wood. We love it. IMO I wouldn't go with steel because they require maintenance such as painting. Also, steel doors dent easily. Fiberglass there is no maintanence and it doesn't dent. We paid $1700 for our door but we also have a sidelight which added about $1000. Without the sidelight the door probably would have been around $800 without installation.
