Storm Doors, you didn’t know how much they keep your family safe.

Storm doors do so much to keep your family safe and sound but never get the credit or the attention they rightfully deserve.

Not only do they add to the beauty of your home, storm doors are extremely functional and practical. One of the great do-it-yourself projects for the homeowner, they will return the hard work to install them with years of service. The unsung heroes of security for the family, here are three major reasons why you should have a one installed on every entry door leading into your home.

Storm Doors Keep the Bugs Out.

Storm Doors are a great way to keep all those nasty stings and bites from bugs away from yourself and your loved ones while inside. Storm doors do a fantastic job at keeping Mosquitoes that carry infectious diseases out of your home. Mosquitoes are considered one of the most dangerous creatures on the planet because of their ability to spread deadly diseases. Keeping your loved ones safe from disease could be as easy as a well installed storm door.

Not always considered as deadly but are and very painful are bees that many people are allergic to. If you have a family member allergic to bee stings, then you know the concerns of having an adult and even worse a child stung from a bee. The instant swelling is terrifying to watch. You can deter and avoid this with an additional barrier to your home.

Keep those annoying flies out too that detract and ruin the best of moods when they sit on your favorite meal. There’s nothing as aggravating as watching your favorite TV program and that pesky fly walks up and down your TV screen in a taunting dance. Instead of putting something through the screen of your tv, purchase or update your storm door.

Storm Doors Keep the Weather Out.

Pounding rain, blustering winds and skin numbing snow all get stopped when you add a storm door to your entry door systems. You can open your main door and still not be exposed to all that Mother Nature can throw at you. Not only do you protect you and your family from harsh elements with a modern storm door but you protect your entry door. You extend the life of your entry door with a modern storm door possibly saving upwards of $2,000 if you had to replace your current exterior entry door.

These specialized doors help keep those drafts from infiltrating your exterior entry door’s loose weather stripping and door sweeps. Keep from ruining hardwood floors that could possibly have water or melted snow leak onto them from a poorly sealed entry door. Water stains on hardwood floor is a labor intensive project to rectify once stained. You can easily avoid these issues with a well installed and well sealed storm door.

Inexpensive and effective at stopping the weather from getting into your home, it’s amazing some people find it a luxury to own a storm door. It’s a necessarily if you live in New England with the Nor’easters and snowstorms we’ve had the last few winters.

Storm Doors Keep the Bad Guys Out.

Thieves want an easy way to get into your home. When you add an additional level of protection thieves get frustrated and move on. Don’t make it easy to break into your home. Install a secure storm door. Many people think because they’ve installed a double lock system on their entry doors that it is enough to deter a bad guy trying to gain entry into your home.

WRONG, one level of protection is often not enough on your exterior door systems to stop a determined criminal. Add a storm door with a good security locking system and aggravate the criminal so much they’ll just pack up their tools and move away from possibly entering your home while you’re still in it.

There is almost no greater fear than to hear an intruder breaking into your home through your entry doors while your family is inside thinking they are safe. Make sure you add that extra level of security of a good modern storm door to keep your loved ones safe from any threats from intruders.
