Q: Why should I upgrade my door? What are the benefits?
A: Replacing your door can help you solve any number of issues, including energy loss, condensation build-up, rotting frames or trim, warping, twisting, poor security, difficulty opening and closing, noise and high maintenance.
Q: What material choices do I have?
A: We feature door products in fiberglass and steel, both of which are exceptionally durable and will not warp, rot or crack when exposed to the elements. With attractive woodgrain textures and painted finishes, it’s hard to distinguish these doors from real wood doors.
Q: Can I customize my entry door?
A: Yes, that’s the fun part! Our experienced consultants can help you choose from a variety of features, including dozens of paint stains and finishes, decorative art glass, transoms, sidelights, grilles, many grid patterns and colors, and distinctive hardware, so you can create a stunning door that reflects your personal tastes.
Q: Should I add a storm door in front of my entry door?
A: A storm door can improve energy efficiency and protect your entry door. However, a storm door should not be installed where there is constant sun exposure or with entry doors that have been painted or stained a dark color. Intense trapped heat could cause damage to the entry door and void the warranty.
Q: Do your doors offer warranty coverage?
A: Yes, most include a lifetime limited warranty against material defects and failure with normal use. In addition, Huff ‘N Puff will provide prompt warranty repair services with no run-around if you ever have a problem with your products.
Q: Why can’t I install the door I purchase?
A: Successful door installation requires precision, expertise and important safety considerations. To achieve the highest level of energy efficiency and function, we only recommend installation by our factory-trained and certified technicians. Huff ‘N Puff’s experts will install your doors with exceptional attention to detail.
