Quality front door an open-and-shut case

 Making a great first impression is one of the most essential recommendations for any home.

One element often ignored is the front door, which can set the tone for the rest of the property.

If yours is a little shabby or weather-worn, we have some suggestions for you, highlighting how to select an appropriate replacement. 

Style 

The age and architecture of your property should be a guiding light for you in selecting a new front door. For example, if you have a Federation home, it’s crucial for the integrity of the architecture that your front door suits the rest of the exterior.

Security

The door’s security doesn’t just depend on the lock. Ensure the frame and hinges are strong to deter intruders.

Screen doors

A steel screen door can enhance the security of your home. When making a purchase, ensure it has 316 marine-grade steel to prevent premature rusting.

Paint job

If you don’t need to replace the front door, give it a facelift. Primary colours, along with gloss black, are the height of fashion.

Glass

If you consider a front door with glass, ensure it has safety glass. Buying a cheap product and having an untrained tradesperson install it will often lead to disappointment. A quality door should come with guarantees of workmanship and materials.

Bonus benefits

Make sure the door has thermal qualities to help insulate your home from heat and cold and reduce any street noise.

This is the second time we have sold with Ben and both times the result has been outstanding. On a personal level we click and its clear he actually cares about both the sellers and the buyers he is working with. The result we achieved and the sheer quantity of offers received in a dead market shows what an outstanding salesman and marketer Ben (and is his team) is.

Ben, Peter and Jade. You guys are the most awesome Real Estate Agents we have ever met. We went to hundreds of open homes and met many agents throughout our search for a home, yet we would come back to you straight away for our next house. Thank you!

Ben worked exceptionally hard on our behalf to get the sale over the line. Ours was not straightforward by any means, and Ben navigated through the many twists and turns to ensure a very satisfactory outcome for us. We highly recommend Ben. 🙂
