Door Overhang

Customers can better protect their wood front entry doors from the elements of weather, rain, water and direct sunlight by making a proper overhang to their front entryway of their house. To do this, first be sure you know the dimensions of your door. Then using simple math and a yardstick or tape measure and protractor, design your overhang equal to or greater than 1/2 the height of the overhang. This will better protect your wood doors, and your home from the elements of weather, rain, water and direct sunlight. This is necessary to fullfill your obligations of your warranty as well when you purchase solid wood doors from Deco Design Center.

To find out more about overhangs, make sure you contact and speak to your architect or contracted builder about adding this feature to your front entryway of your house, apartment, commercial space or villa. This is a very important feature when purchasing new solid mahogany front entrance doors from Deco Design Center in your new residence or remodel project. Deco Design Center always stresses the importance of a door overhang when purchasing or installing wood doors. A door over-hang is a important part of protecting your new wood entry doors from the elements, weather and direct sunlight which can cause doors to expand, crack, or lose color or fade which are all natural elements of solid wood or wood door. To learn more about door overhangs or if you have questions about door overhangs or door installations, please consult with Deco Design Center before purchasing a wood door from them if you have any questions or consult with your architect, builder or contractor.
