A semi-custom entry hurricane impact door refers to a door that combines the benefits of standard manufacturing with some degree of customization. Here's what it entails:
1. Standard Base Design: The door starts with a pre-designed, standard base model that meets hurricane impact resistance standards, ensuring it can withstand severe weather and flying debris. Size of the doors are predetermined so they can be produced at economies of scale. That makes these doors more affordable price-wise.
2. Customization Options: While the core structure and impact-resistant features are standardized, you can customize various aspects to suit your preferences and home aesthetics. Customization options might include:
- Material Finishes: Choices of paint colors, stains, or finishes to match your home’s exterior.
- Glass Inserts: Options for different styles of impact-resistant glass, such as clear, frosted, or decorative designs.
- Hardware: Selection of door handles, locks, and hinges in various styles and finishes.
- Design Elements: Additional decorative elements, such as moldings, panels, or carvings.
3. Enhanced Fees: Semi-custom doors often allow you to add features like better insulation, smart locks, or additional security measures.
