I have 7 French doors (outswing) to purchase for a bay home in coastal Texas. The doors are all covered by deep porches (12 feet).
We are close to pulling the trigger on Anderson 400 series. 7 French (both operating - interior grid - pine - high end hardware) plus a single outswing for a toal of 8 doors. Quote is 24k for non impact and 38k for impact doors from HD. I figured that corrugated Lexan (or facsimile) panels are worth putting up on 7 doors to save that much money.
This isn't a spec home, it's for our kids to have one day.
Is there a better price? If so, from who?
Is there a better door for the price? If so, which one?
Since the doors are under a great deal of porch, the largest concern on the coastal bend is the continuous breeze that blows. The door seal is critical for this exposure in this location.
Thanks a ton for your brains
