Commonly installed as a preventative measure against bad weather, a storm door is an additional layer of protection for an entryway. It also allows for better ventilation of your home and improves overall energy efficiency. New Jersey Siding & Windows, Inc. has been providing premium storm doors made of durable materials in northern New Jersey and the surrounding areas for over 20 years. Our selection features various styles, colors, designs, and hardware, ensuring you can find the perfect door for your home.
What Is the Purpose of a Storm Door?
While their name suggests rough weather protection, storm doors also serve several other purposes. For example, they enable additional natural light to flow through your home on sunny days. If you have small children, you can allow them to play outside while you watch to monitor their safety. You may also consider installing a storm door for aesthetic reasons, as it enhances the curb appeal of your property.
Another purpose of storm doors is to improve the efficiency of your home by adding extra insulation against air leaks. Storm doors keep the warm air in and cold air out during the winter months and vice versa during the summer. Additionally, a storm door will safeguard your main entryway door from being damaged by rain, ice, snow, hail, and other poor weather conditions.

Storm Door Features
Storm doors need enduring construction to withstand Mother Nature. The sleek-looking exterior doors at New Jersey Siding & Windows, Inc. feature the following characteristics, indicating their lasting structure:
