Exterior Doors: Features & Benefits

In order to battle the harsh and often unexpected elements Mother Nature throws your way, you need a GUARDIAN. Our Paragon exterior doors offers the protection of the GUARDIAN Weather Barrier System. Made of a complete arsenal of the toughest door components available, all engineered to work together, the GUARDIAN system protects your home from weather and weather-related rot and insect damage. The GUARDIAN system also makes your home more comfortable and energy-efficient year-round.

Eastern white pine jambs are end-treated with anti-wicking barrier to discourage rot and insects and offer better finish quality and durability than typical yellow pine jambs. Features a five-year warranty (new construction doors only).

Foam compression weatherstripping creates a perfect, weather-tight seal between the door and the jamb for maximum energy efficiency.

Tubular bulb and dual center fin weather stripping with outer fins diverts water from the door and threshold.

Adjustable oak-look composite threshold allows simple height adjustment for perfect door alignment to seal out bottom drafts.

High dam threshold features continuous composite base that will not rot or warp. Features a five-year warranty.

Your door’s solid polyurethane core is five times more energy efficient than wood to keep your home comfortable regardless of the outdoor conditions and is environmentally safe.

Extended sill elevates jambs to reduce water exposure while anti-wicking wood treatment helps prevent water wicking.

Adjustable vinyl rail with patented flexible seal interlocks with high dam aluminum sill providing an impenetrable barrier between the threshold and the interior of the house.

Specially-designed, patent-pending corner pads use a cutout to create a low pressure cavity that prevents “straw” effect and eliminates associated leaks under stormy conditions.
