Alexandria, VA Front Door, Back Door & Storm Door Replacement

Alexandria door work in four numbers

What do front and back doors run in Alexandria?

Budget $1,800 to $5,500 per entry door, installed; a patio door is usually $2,500 to $6,500. A wood-grain fiberglass door with decorative glass costs more than a smooth steel one, a custom outside color adds cost and wait time, and a storm door is priced as its own item. Other styles and options are available, so reach out if you don’t see what you want. Our Northern Virginia door price breakdown goes option by option.

An Alexandria house: front door, kitchen door and storm door

These homeowners in 22306 had Sunrise windows put in by us earlier, then called back about their doors. The contract covered three: the front entry door, the kitchen entry door, and the storm door outside the kitchen. We took all three old doors with us.

The front door is a ProVia Signet fiberglass door with a fir grain, ProVia’s 420 style, a Craftsman look: two tall panels below a six-lite window. It is Coal Black outside and Snow Mist White inside, with grids on both faces of the glass and shadow bars between the panes, so it reads like true divided glass. Satin nickel hardware throughout, keyed alike, with a security plate. The kitchen door is a ProVia Legacy smooth steel door with colonial grids sealed in the glass, white inside and a custom color outside. Outside the kitchen door now hangs a white ProVia Deluxe 397: glass top to bottom, with a full BetterVue screen.

What makes a door look Craftsman?

A row of small glass panes across the top and flat, tall panels underneath. The Alexandria front door above uses ProVia’s six-lite top with the grids applied on both sides of the glass and a shadow bar between the panes, so from the walk it looks like separate pieces of glass. On this door, the Coal Black outside is framed by Snow Mist White frame cladding. More Craftsman and panel styles are on our ProVia entry door page.

Can I get a door in a custom color?

Yes, with more lead time. ProVia paints to a custom color when its standard list does not match the house, and the order for the Alexandria kitchen door carries a note that custom colors take longer to make. If you want the door the same color as shutters or trim, bring it up at the estimate so the schedule allows for it.

Is a storm door worth adding on a kitchen or back door?

If the door faces the weather, or you want screened air in summer, yes. On this Alexandria job the kitchen door was ordered together with its storm door, sized to fit on the new door’s brickmold, so the two fit together. See full-view and screen options on our storm door page.

Does Alexandria review a new front door?

In the City of Alexandria, homes in the Old and Historic Alexandria and Parker-Gray districts need Board of Architectural Review approval for most exterior changes visible from a public street, alley or sidewalk, and many neighborhoods on both sides of the city line have HOAs. We supply the product data sheets and manufacturer color names. We work closely with the committees, we have a great relationship with plenty of HOAs, and it has never been a problem for us.
