Should I Buy Doors From An Online Door Company?

Ready to buy doors? When a homeowner is ready to buy doors, they should probably consider an online door company. As a builder, I would normally send my clients to a local door supplier, where they could sit down with the salesperson. Once I started my website, offering information to the owner who was renovating a house or building a new one, I became aware of a whole online world related to residential construction. I have changed my approach and now I believe that online is as viable an option as any other. There are advantages and disadvantages to each. ESWDA

An online door company usually has an extensive color photo gallery where the homeowner can easily navigate to find their home doors. These photo galleries make it easy to view the various options at your leisure. I think this may be the biggest advantage that an online door company has. When you go to a showroom, the salesperson usually points you to brochures, which may or may not be that long.

Without a showroom, overhead is reduced so that an online door company can offer better prices than a local company. However, the owner must ensure that there is an apples to apples comparison and verify who the manufacturer is. If it is the same door, then it is an honest comparison. If not, do your due diligence on the manufacturer of the doors you are considering to ensure the same level of quality exists.

I advise any owner to use his instincts on anyone they work with, from suppliers to contractors. If you find doors you like online, call the company. Talk to a salesperson and raise any concerns you may have. Ask them about quality, where they get their doors, their guarantees, etc. Pay attention not only to your answers but to your own instincts. Does your instinct tell you that you will work with a good door company with quality doors?

One advantage that some online businesses have is their personalized offers. Some of the online door companies offer truly unique doors, like all hardwoods in various configurations and wood species. An example of one of these companies is www.eswda.com. They also offer custom wood doors that they manufacture as well as distribute.

Whether you buy from an online or local door company, it is your own preparation that will help you the most. Find all the door information you can so you can ask good questions and know what you are talking about. Do your homework when you're ready to buy doors to save time and money!ESWDA
