Interior Basement Door Dilema
Comments (15)cflaherty and others...I'm so sorry - I was away and I didn't make it back to this post. Let's see - I can't recall the manufacturer of the doors, but many companies carried them when I was looking - 5 lite interior french doors was my search. I think Masonite and Craftmaster come to mind. I would go to HD and ask. My contractor ordered them thru his supplier. They were wood and had to be painted. Good luck! I will remember to come back and check for additional questions. Jenva - Depending on the time of day I can see very well down there or almost not at all. I would say that it depends on your house position and where you get most of your sunlight. Stephct - I'm sorry, but no, it's not on the finished kitchens blog. I don't want to hijack this thread, but if you start a new one, I will reply with the details of my kitchen. Hope this helps, everyone!...See MorePatio door dilema
Comments (10)They are full glass. If someone wants to break in, they can always break the glass. The double door with inswing and center hinge is usually not terribly secure as it can be kicked in but you can use a deadbolt to help with security. Sliders can sometimes be taken off the track. We have a drop-down bar (easy to buy and install) that goes across the center of a slider to prevent the door being opened/taken off the track. So the glass would have to be broken to get in, as near as I can tell. It was already on the door when we moved in-- I would probably not have installed it. If both doors on the inswing were operable, that would be my preference because I could open up a wide area for passage back and forth to the deck and have nice breezes (hopefully) coming through. But since one door is fixed, I would get the slider because it won't take any swing-space into the room. If you don't want someone to break in as easily, use a solid door with a deadbolt into the wall side. Just my opinion :)...See Moreexterior paint color dilema

Comments (5)I like the color it is right now. It looks very nice. What I do notice is the lack of landscaping, and no trees in the front yard. Also, you have a beautiful front porch, but, no furniture, etc on there. It needs chairs and tables, and bright colored cushions, and a few potted plants. Also, a brighter colored door. The color now, blends into the house so, door is hard to see....See MoreBeth Werner
