Prioritizing security and durability for your family's peace of mind. When selecting an entry door, the safety and security of your family are paramount. Modern doors are engineered with advanced features, including multi-point locking systems, reinforced frames, and impact-resistant materials designed to withstand various challenges. Durability is also key, as your door will face daily wear and tear and exposure to the elements. Materials like steel, fiberglass, and solid wood each offer unique benefits in terms of strength and longevity. Lomax Window & Door Co. partner with trusted manufacturers like ProVia and Andersen, who are known for their robust construction and commitment to lasting performance, ensuring that your door stands strong for years to come. Enhancing comfort and energy efficiency. Your entry door plays a crucial role in maintaining your home's indoor climate and energy efficiency. An old, drafty door can lead to significant heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, impacting your comfort and increasing your energy bills. Modern doors feature advanced insulation, weatherstripping, and thermal breaks to create a tighter seal against the elements. Choosing an energy-efficient door can substantially reduce drafts, maintain consistent indoor temperatures, and contribute to a more comfortable and cost-effective home environment. This commitment to efficiency aligns with its focus on providing maximum quality for your investment. Reflecting your style and boosting curb appeal. Beyond functionality, your entry door is a focal point that expresses your home's personality and significantly contributes to its curb appeal. From classic to contemporary, there's a vast array of styles, finishes, and decorative glass options to choose from. Consider how the door's design, color, and hardware will complement your home's architectural style and exterior palette. The right entry door can dramatically elevate your home's curb appeal, working in harmony with other exterior elements. Whether you're considering future siding services or simply refreshing your home's façade, your door makes a statement. Visiting its Fort Collins showroom allows you to explore options from premium brands like Sierra Pacific and Weathershield firsthand. The importance of professional door installation. Even the highest quality door will underperform if not installed correctly. Professional door installation is critical to ensure optimal security, energy efficiency, and durability. An expert installer will ensure the frame is perfectly square, the seals are tight, and all hardware operates smoothly. This precision prevents drafts, reduces wear, and extends the lifespan of your door, safeguarding your investment. Investing in a high-quality entry door is an investment in your home's future, much like planning for other improvements that enhance its value and usability, such as considering deck building or other outdoor enhancements. Making the right choice for your home. Selecting the perfect entry door is a significant step in enhancing your home's comfort, security, and curb appeal.

Andersen Windows recalls 91,000 window opening control devices over fall hazard.

Andersen Windows recalls 91,000 window opening control devices over fall hazard. Andersen Windows is recalling tens of thousands of window-opening control devices that can fail and allow windows to swing open without warning. The recall covers devices sold individually as kits and those factory-installed on the company's 100 Series casement windows manufactured before November 19, 2025. No injuries were reported, but the recall poses a serious safety hazard. If the control device breaks or pops off after an accidental bump or other impact, the window can open freely. In a home with children or on an upper floor, that's a fall waiting to happen. According to the CPSC recall notice, Andersen has received 8 reports of the devices breaking, detaching, or malfunctioning. The recalled devices were sold at independent window distributors and online at parts.andersenwindows.com from October 2015 through December 2025. Prices ranged from about $9 for an individual kit to $220 for a factory-installed unit on a 100 Series casement window. An additional 180 units that sold in Canada are also being recalled. Consumers who have these windows should keep them in the closed and locked position until the problem is fixed. Andersen is offering a free in-home repair by an authorized technician. To check if your window is affected, you'll need the Product ID number, which can be found on the label in the upper right corner of the window frame. To schedule a repair, visit www.andersenwindows.com/100seriescasementwocdrecall or call Andersen toll-free at 844-815-7332, Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. CT. You can also reach the company by email at [email protected]. Homeowners who were injured due to a defective window opening control device may have legal options and should consult with an attorney about their rights.
