Hand Forged Wrought Iron Entry Doors - Opinions or Experiences?
Comments (25)Yes! Welcome to the club. The door is a nightmare. When I see homes being build with these doors I almost want to run in and tell people to change the door before it’s too late. Looks good from the street, but a total disaster. Mine gets so hot in the summer, I laugh about it and tell people I grill on it. I had rust stains after only a few years, had to repaint. Get condensation in the winter, but i seal from the inside on super cold days - it helps. Actually in the process of buying some weather proofing for the door now and hope it might help Some more. Good luck!...See MoreDo you have an iron you particularly like?
Comments (27)We were at BB&B yesterday so that DB Kevin could buy a new waterpick, and I told him I wanted to look at irons. He decided to buy me the Rowenta DW9280, as it had the best features and was also the most ergonomic, especially for pressing the buttons/trigger for spray and steam. The spray trigger is really nice, and I will probably start using that instead of the spray water bottle I've been using, which has been getting the fabrics too wet. I don't mind refilling the water container. I will keep my B&D Classic as a back-up, however, and may use that iron when I do not want steam - I will have to see how I feel about that. The B&D iron has an aluminum soleplate, and aluminum can sometimes make black marks on fabrics, if it is not cleaned and maintained properly. Kevin bought me the iron partly because as payment for altering his new cashmere suit, but I also told him and this iron would be better for taking wrinkles out of his suit, if that needs to be done. I always use a press cloth with cashmere and wool, and I will continue to do that with the new iron, but it may not be as necessary. I would not have been looking at irons if I had not seen this thread! I did not really need a new iron, but it will be nice having one. The store in Westchester did not have inventory, and so they are shipping one to our house with shipping no charge....See MoreWrought iron front entrance door

Comments (0)Hello all, Do you think thermally broken iron doors would work in the Midwest states? Winters tend to be harsh and temperature is below freezing often. Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated....See Moreaputernut
