Steel Door Features
HOME GUARD® Ironwood Paintable Smooth Steel and Stainable Steel Doors are the ultimate in home security, beauty, long-term value and longevity. Increased energy savings, safety, home value, curb appeal, a rock-solid warranty - there are a multitude of reasons to upgrade today to a Home Guard door.
HOME GUARD's Exclusive Timberframe © all-composite frame offers all the beauty of wood with none of the headaches. Completely maintenance and worry free, the Timberframe• will not warp, rot, mold or wick water and can be stained to match all HGI door stains. Timberframe © is an option on most HOME GUARD doors.
Magnetic Weatherstripping utilizes refrigerator technology to provide a durable, tight seal to provide year round comfort
and energy efficiency.
All doors feature steel edge construction and are fully insulated with an inner core of environmentally friendly polyurethane foam and offer a superior R-factor of 15.1 for the ultimate in energy conservation. Our steel doors are wood-free and will not swell, split, twist, warp or rot like other steel doors with wood rails and lock block.
The door bottom weather-strip slides off and on for easy replacement and forms a weather-tight seal to the threshold. The result is a superior seal that keeps the inside in and the outside out.
Our exclusive steel "L"frame provides the next measure of security adding strength to your entrance. This crucial element is available on all HGI replacement doors and our adjustable strike plate makes installation easy on every door upgrade.
The unequaled security of steel - A wood edge steel door (left) cracked under the force of one hit of a 100 lb. test weight. Steel edge doors
(right) did not force open after seven hits of a 100 lb. test weight.
HOME GUARD's exclusive, patented Adjustable Hinge Plate System adjusts up or down and in or out for a tighter weatherseal against the elements and added energy savings.
Hardware finish matched Ball-Bearing Hinges are standard on all doors and offer the ultimate in smooth operation. Individual ball bearings ensure years of quiet, trouble-free use.
Duraframe Jambs are the standard wood frame on all HGI doors and are constructed using an Alaskan Cypress base which repels water preventing the wood from wicking and rotting.
HGl's full 4"X l0"Composite Lock Block has more screw holding power than wood. Injection molded for uniform size, there is no distortion of the door skin typically found with wood lock blocks.
Home Guard entry doors* are Energy Star approved and meet strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the EPA and US Department of Energy.
Fiberglass Door Features
Home Guard FiberStarTM Fiberglass Doors are beautifully designed with patented Hydroshield™ technology. This revolutionary system ensures that water is repelled from the perimeter of the door to eliminate twisting or warping.
Deep detailed embossments create a real wood door look without the maintenance and headaches of real wood.
Fiberglass doors are available in both a smooth skin and a woodgrain texture. These doors can be painted in any of our twenty decorator colors or hand-stained in your choice of our seven Ironwood stains.
Special exterior rails are used on the perimeter to shut out moisture from all FiberStar doors. Patented Hydroshield technology ensures against warping, twisting, rotting or splitting ... clearly setting our fiberglass doors apart from all the others.

Duraframe Jambs are the standard wood frame on all HGI doors and are constructed using an Alaskan Cypress base which repels water preventing the wood from wicking and rotting.
Environmentally Sound Polyurethane Foam Core
While some other fiberglass door manufacturers still use HCFC-free foam, we are proud to offer a truly"green" door which is completely CFC-free in compliance with the U.S. environmental standards to prevent destruction to the Earth's ozone layer. The advanced polyurethane core used in our doors also enhances the door's soundproofing capabilities and provides insulation properties six times greater than wood.
