Storm doors? If you’ve got good quality, energy-efficient entry doors on your Minneapolis home, do you really need storm doors?
The short answer is, ‘Yes, you do.’ And we highly recommend them. The Twin Cities area – and Minnesota in general – is synonymous with storms. While storm doors do much more for a home than protecting them from bad weather, it’s an important function. No matter how good your entry doors are at keeping out the bad weather and preventing air and moisture leaks, your home can benefit from having storm doors installed as well.
So the next question is, should you get those storm doors installed before winter hits Minneapolis?
Again, the short answer is YES! Predictions are that this will be a colder-than average winter, and that the harsh weather will hit our area in late November. But if you act now and get on our door installation schedule, you can be warm and comfortable in your home without breaking your budget on heating bills.
One last thought about scheduling, and that has to do with security during the holiday season. According to multiple sources, home break-ins tend to spike during the winter holidays. Remember the movie, ‘Home Alone’? While it may be far-fetched to think a family could set off on a European vacation and leave a child behind accidentally, the burglars targeting the home are spot on. With shopping as well as going out to parties and other celebrations the norm, burglars know that many homes will be unoccupied. And since the majority of home break-ins occur through the front door, having an extra layer of security to keep them out just makes sense. Getting in through one door may not be difficult, but having to breach two just might send those would-be criminals looking elsewhere.
