First impressions are powerful. A solid, stylish entry door instantly communicates quality and security. For homeowners focused on longevity and energy savings, nothing beats steel. CountBricks leverages AI-powered estimating, real-time material pricing, and voice-driven job scoping to deliver seamless steel entry door installation that elevates curb appeal and household safety.
Durability: High-gauge steel resists warping, cracking, and rot far longer than wood or fiberglass alternatives.
Security: Integrated reinforcement plates and multi-point locking hardware deter forced entry.
Energy Performance: Modern cores are foam-filled and fully insulated, trimming HVAC costs year-round.
Design Flexibility: Decorative glass inserts, custom colors, and texture stamping reproduce premium wood looks without maintenance.

1. Pre-installation survey: We verify wall thickness, rough opening, swing direction, and code compliance.
2. Removal of existing unit: Careful extraction prevents damage to siding, trim, and flooring.
3. Flashing and pan preparation: Waterproof membranes safeguard against wind-driven rain.
4. Setting the steel frame: Non-corrosive shims and laser levels guarantee plumb, square alignment.
5. Foam insulation and anchoring: Expanding foam seals gaps while structural screws tie the jambs into framing.
6. Hardware and weatherstripping: Adjustable striker plates and magnetic seals produce a tight, quiet close.
7. Finish trim and paint touch-ups: Interior and exterior casing complete the look.
8. Quality walkthrough: Our installer reviews operation, warranty documents, and maintenance tips.
• Door slab and frame gauge: 20-gauge panels cost less, while 18-gauge offers premium security.
• Sidelites and transoms: Added glass increases material and labor time but can flood foyers with light.
• Smart locks: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth hardware adds convenience and resale value.
• Regional labor rates: CountBricks pulls local wage data automatically, so pricing stays accurate for your ZIP code.
