Steel vs. Fibreglass Entry Doors: Which Option Fits Your Niagara Falls Home?
Niagara Falls neighbourhoods range from character homes near Fallsview to family properties in Stamford and Chippawa — and each one benefits from a different type of entry system. Here’s a quick comparison to help you choose the door material that best matches your home’s style, durability needs, and long-term performance.
Steel Entry Doors
- Excellent security and impact resistance
- Sleek, smooth panels with crisp architectural lines
- Budget-friendly while still offering strong performance
- Works well on modern, heritage, and brick-front homes
Fibreglass Entry Doors
- Authentic woodgrain appearance without the maintenance
- Dent-, warp-, and moisture-resistant for long-lasting durability
- Among the most energy-efficient door options available
- Ideal for Niagara Falls’ humidity and freeze–thaw climate cycles

How We Install Dorplex Entry Doors in Niagara Falls
A quality door installation starts with the opening, not just the door itself. Our Niagara Falls crews use a full-frame replacement method to ensure your new entry, garden, or French door sits correctly, seals tightly, and performs well in Niagara’s climate.
- Remove the existing door, frame, and exterior trims down to the rough opening.
- Inspect the sill and surrounding framing for moisture, rot, or structural concerns.
- Position the new Dorplex door frame level and square for proper operation.
- Secure the frame with durable fasteners and shims where needed.
- Insulate and seal all perimeter gaps to reduce drafts and moisture penetration.
- Install fresh exterior brickmould and trims for a clean, finished look.
- Apply premium exterior caulking and complete any final adjustments.
Why We Recommend Full-Frame Door Replacement
Reusing an older frame often leads to ongoing drafts, poor alignment, and compromised sills. A full-frame replacement allows us to correct these issues, giving your new Dorplex system the tightest fit and the best long-term performance.
It’s a bit more work on installation day, but it ensures reliable results in Niagara Falls’ variable weather and moisture conditions.
