Entryway - contemporary entryway idea in Chicago

We love transformations and this front entry door system is an excellent example! The new entry door is the full oval Heirloom series glass in a textured, hand-stained finish. The door is still steel, but has textured grains running the same way as in a natural wood door. The storm door is an aluminum, full view storm door. Like the entry door, it is textured and hand stained to match. We finished the opening with capping and the matching decorative handle sets really give the doors an elegant look. What I really like is how the rich Mahogany stands out against the light stone of the home and really ties in the red brick running along the bottom, not to mention the woodgrain texture of the door looks gorgeous with the home's natural stone! The beauty of wood with the strength and longevity of steel!

Look what a difference replacing the old aluminum round top storm door makes! Here we put in a steel security storm door to add beauty, energy efficiency and security to our customer's home. We specialize it arch top, round top and other specialty shapes and sizes!

We could not be happier with this installation. Look how perfect the symmetry of the door is within the opening and the decorative elements of this entryway.

Here we replaced an old aluminum door which was not built for the round top entryway.

How do you transform your front entry? This door and two sidelite installation replaced a smooth steel entry door and two sidelites with a textured woodgrain steel entry door in a mahogany stain finish. The before and after photos are quite striking! Some key details... ✅ The new jamb is clad in brown to match the woodgrain stain ✅ The old threshold was a mill finish which was replaced with a bronze threshold to match the woodgrain ✅ The lockset is a wireless, smart deadbolt with code access and app connectivity! It has built-in alarm technology, highest industry ratings for residential security, durability and finish, and can schedule access codes for guests so they only enter when you want! ✅ The aged bronze lock finish matches the threshold and compliments both the woodgrain finish and decorative glass Someone's curb appeal just went through the roof!

Here is a recent camber top steel security storm door we did for a customer in Chicago. This is not a full round top door but what is sometimes referred to as an eyebrow or arch top door. We use a 16 gauge steel for both door and frame and install with a one way screw for added security. Here at Defender Steel Door co. we specialize in custom sized and shaped entry and storm doors.

Our Customer wanted the strength of wrought iron and the privacy of wood panels for their gate. Here we combined both for a double driveway gate.
