Local Factors

What Doors Need in This Climate

Storm exposure, security and humidity are the main factors in choosing exterior doors here.

Storm and Wind Ratings

Exterior doors, especially in coastal Louisiana, benefit from impact-rated construction and correct hardware to meet current wind-load code.

Storm Doors

A storm door adds an extra layer of weather and security protection in front of an entry door, and is a common, cost-effective upgrade.

Moisture and Warping

Humidity and sun exposure can warp lower-quality doors over time. Material choice and proper sealing matter more here than in drier climates.

Security

Solid-core doors with quality deadbolts and strike plates are a straightforward security upgrade during any door replacement.
