Great style comes home as JELD-WEN, the world’s leading manufacturer of reliable windows and doors, introduces a beautiful selection of new interior and exterior door styles – perfect for homeowners and builders who want to make a lasting impression.
New in JELD-WEN Fiberglass: Styles of Enduring Beauty
A superb fiberglass door option that is virtually indistinguishable from wood, JELD-WEN® IWP® Aurora™ Custom Fiberglass Door takes elegance to a new level. Now, homeowners and builders seeking the low-maintenance reliability of fiberglass have two new styles to choose from. JELD-WEN has added a raised eight-panel door design (A1208) available in a rustic knotty alder woodgrain texture to its Aurora collection.
This style was previously only available in wood. JELD-WEN has also introduced an IWP Aurora Double Radius System (A1202), a beautiful double door custom fiberglass entry that delivers traditional Old World charm combined with exceptional durability. The Double Radius System is available prehung with a flat or full radius top in mahogany woodgrain or paint grade finish.
“When it comes to a beautiful, low maintenance option that looks almost exactly like wood, yet will perform reliably for years to come, you can’t beat JELD-WEN’s Custom Fiberglass line,” said Kevin Pine, assistant product marketing manager for JELD-WEN doors. “We believe these two new styles will be very well received by homeowners and builders alike.”
Homeowners and builders can further customize these new designs with a variety of decorative metal accent options, including straps, speakeasys and clavos (metal accent buttons) that help enhance the Old World style of these doors.
All Aurora doors are now available with JELD-WEN’s IWP Insignia Composite Prehung System, an all-in-one, non-wood package that provides enduring beauty and protection even in severe weather conditions and climates.
New in JELD-WEN Wood
For some, there’s no substitute for real wood. With that in mind, JELD-WEN has added two new selections to its Premium Wood Door collection. New styles include a Craftsman exterior door (1867), which features three vertical panels and a six-lite, radius glass design, and a new interior door style. The Premium Wood Craftsman door is available in a variety of species, including AuraLast™ wood, which offers a 20-year warranty against wood decay and insect damage. According to Pine, the door provides updated features and great style that continues to be exceedingly popular.
“Craftsman style is ever-enduring. Homeowners and builders want choices that fit with the Craftsman look, yet also set them apart. This door offers fresh style with unique wood options,” said Pine.
Homeowners and builders looking for great style for the inside of their homes will appreciate the new JELD-WEN Premium Wood interior “staved panel” door style (1023 & 1828). This door is available in a variety of species and features two simulated planked panels for a rustic appeal that matches perfectly with Shaker, Mediterranean or Craftsman architecture. The upper panel has enhanced detailing with a segment top design. By blending fine craftsmanship with 21st century manufacturing technology, JELD-WEN offers customers the most refined selection of beautiful and reliable wood doors. JELD-WEN Premium Wood Doors are available in a variety of designs and wood species, widths and heights and are engineered for stability and strength. AuraLast wood helps lower maintenance and replacement costs by preventing external moisture and insect damage
