Sealing the Deal: How to Winterize Your Windows and Doors

Winter is here, and it’s time to ensure your home is ready for the cold. Your windows and doors are essential for keeping warmth in and drafts out. Winterizing them not only improves energy efficiency but also enhances your home's comfort and security. Let’s walk through some practical tips to prepare your windows and doors for the season, while showcasing recent projects where we delivered both function and style.

How to Winterize Your Windows and Doors

  1. Inspect and Seal Drafts
    Check for drafts around windows and doors. Use weatherstripping or caulking to seal gaps and prevent heat loss. Our project in Coshocton, OH, featuring a Coal Black Steel Legacy Entry Door with a deluxe storm door, exemplifies how proper sealing can enhance efficiency and curb appeal.
  2. Upgrade to Energy-Efficient Options
    Consider replacing old windows and doors with energy-efficient models. For example, the Aeris Patio Doors and Double Hung Windows we installed in Vermillion, OH, provide not only exceptional insulation but also sleek design with Sandstone and Espresso finishes.
  3. Install Storm Doors and Windows
    Storm doors and windows add an extra layer of protection against the elements. In Barnsville, OH, a new picture window paired with a durable storm door ensures added comfort and reduced energy costs.
  4. Check Weather Seals
    Ensure weather seals are intact and replace any worn-out ones. Our recent projects in Newark, OH, included meticulous weatherproofing, alongside Vinyl Siding and Stone work, to ensure a cozy home throughout winter.
  5. Upgrade Hardware for Durability
    Reinforce your doors and windows with high-quality hardware to withstand harsh weather. In Brecksville, OH, we installed Legacy Steel Doors with sidelites and storm doors, designed for both durability and elegance.
