What is the difference between MDL steel and fiberglass doors?
Steel is a durable, economical option with a smooth paintable finish. Fiberglass offers greater resistance to dents, moisture, cracking, splitting, and rot.
Which entrance configurations are available?
MDL offers single doors, doors with sidelights, double doors, terrace doors, and doors with transoms.
How can I customize the appearance of an MDL door?
Depending on the selected product, you can choose the material, surface texture, paint or stain appearance, decorative glass, sidelights, transoms, and hardware.
What features help reduce drafts around an MDL entrance?
MDL systems include compression foam weatherstripping, insulated polyurethane foam cores, and a fixed door-bottom sweep as standard premium features.
When does fiberglass make more sense than steel?
Fiberglass may be preferable where resistance to dents, moisture, splitting, cracking, and rot is a priority, or where a woodgrain-style appearance is desired.
Planning a front entrance upgrade? MDL offers steel and fiberglass door systems that can be customized with different glass, sidelights, transoms, finishes, and hardware.
The Window Centre can help you compare MDL options and select a complete entrance system suited to your home, project requirements, and budget.
