In crafting a home that pays homage to historical elegance, the choice of the front door is more than a mere detail—it's a statement. Plastpro's fiberglass doors, particularly the Craftsman Series, bridge the gap between the allure of yesteryear and the advancements of modern technology, offering an ideal solution for period-accurate exteriors.
Durability and Enduring Beauty: Unlike traditional materials, fiberglass doors withstand the test of time without succumbing to the common ailments of wood, such as rotting and warping. This resilience ensures that the historical charm of your home remains intact, year after year, with minimal upkeep. Plastpro doors specifically are crafted to endure diverse weather conditions while retaining their aesthetic appeal.
Energy Efficiency: A Modern Necessity in Historical Homes: The energy efficiency of fiberglass is a boon for period homes, notorious for their drafty nature. With insulated cores, these doors reduce thermal transfer, effectively sealing your home against the elements and reducing energy costs. This quality is particularly crucial in maintaining the comfort and sustainability of historically styled homes.
Mimicking Wood with Modern Materials: The technology behind fiberglass doors has evolved to such an extent that they can replicate the look of wood with astonishing accuracy. This feature is vital for homeowners who wish to maintain the historical authenticity of their homes without sacrificing the benefits of modern materials.
From the grain patterns to the color tones, fiberglass doors like those in Plastpro's collections offer a range of options that mirror traditional wooden doors, fitting seamlessly into period-style exteriors.
Customizable to Your Historical Narrative: Plastpro's doors go beyond mere functionality; they are a canvas for personal expression. Whether your home reflects the ornate details of the Victorian era or the simpler lines of Colonial architecture, these doors can be tailored to complement your home's historical narrative, including by painting. This customization extends to various glass options, finishes, and styles, enabling a harmonious blend with your home's existing design.
The Craftsman Door Series balances classic design with modern, minimalist simplicity. With both fir and smooth skins available, easily add a soft, simple tone to your front porch while preserving a traditional, artisan look. Plastpro’s doors were created with a timeless style that is not exclusive to traditional Craftsman homes. Explore our minimalist Shaker line that pairs well with many other contemporary home styles, but keeps the Craftsman wood charm.
Similarly, give your home a comforting yet beautiful appearance with Plastpro’s classic Rustic Door Series. The natural and warm aesthetic of these Rustic Doors creates a true focal point for your home. Browse the multiple styles of paneled and arched Rustic Doors to find the right fit for your home. Whether you are aiming for a farmhouse home style or a clean, contemporary design, Plastpro’s Rustic Door Series has a variety of easily customizable doors to choose from.
Plus, you pair any Plastpro door with wrought iron accessories, including hinge straps, clavos, and speakeasies, to add the right amount of mid-century beauty.
Cost Considerations: While fiberglass doors may present a higher initial investment compared to other materials, their longevity and energy-saving properties offer long-term financial benefits. This aspect is crucial for homeowners looking for a cost-effective solution that aligns with their home's historical character.
Environmental Considerations: It's important to note that the production of fiberglass doors is more energy-intensive and less eco-friendly compared to wood doors. However, their durability and low maintenance requirements can offset these environmental impacts over the long term.
Plastpro's fiberglass doors, especially the Craftsman and Rustic Series, represent an ideal solution for homeowners seeking to blend historical charm with modern functionality. Their energy efficiency, low maintenance, customizable design options, and robust security features make them a compelling choice for creating period-accurate exteriors. As we embrace the advancements of contemporary door technology, we can celebrate and preserve the beauty of the past, ensuring our homes reflect both our heritage and our modern lifestyle.
