We have a decision dilemma about our entry door for a new build. The door is 7' wide and 8' high (2 panels). The door will have ample protection since the front porch is 4 feet deep, and we have a large overhang that's 3 feet wide. We also have a large maple tree in front of the house - so the door hardly gets any direct sun exposure especially that it is facing south.
Below is the picture of the door we want.
The price for either option is almost the same (quoted little over 14K).
Option1: Custom made genuine mahogany door by a reputable local Amish company
Option2: Custom made Jeld-Wen Aurora fiberglass door - still having hard time pronouncing their name :)
If you have experience with these types of doors, your thought will be greatly appreciated,
