Absolutely. Storm doors are especially beneficial in Richmond Hill's climate. They protect your main door from ice and snow damage, reduce drafts, and create an insulating barrier that keeps cold air out and warm air in.

Many storm doors come with built-in retractable screens that roll away when not in use. Larson and Andersen both offer ventilating storm doors with screens that disappear behind the glass panel for a clean look.

Builder-grade windows often meet minimum code requirements but lack premium features like triple-pane glass, argon gas fill, and superior weatherstripping. Upgrading improves energy efficiency by 20–30%, reduces outside noise, and enhances curb appeal — a smart investment that pays for itself through lower energy bills.

Even in homes 10–15 years old, builder-grade windows may show signs of seal failure (fog between panes), drafts, or difficult operation. If you notice condensation between glass panes, increased energy bills, or difficulty opening/closing, it's time for professional assessment.

Modern fiberglass and steel entry doors with sidelights are the most popular choice for newer suburban homes. They offer superior insulation (R-value 6–8 vs. R-2 for older doors), excellent security, and contemporary styles that dramatically improve curb appeal.
