Customer Reviews for Unique Home Designs 30 in. x 80 in. Estate Almond Recessed Mount All Season Security Door with Insect Screen and Glass Inserts

Beautiful & Eligant!

Purchased the door after looking at plenty of them and decided to go with then this. Firs this door is heavy as heck but me and my sister were able to get it jn the house. My handy man finalyl came and helped install i love th look and how it brings out the front of the house it only took about 3hrs to install and only needed 2 people 1 really but the second person would be helpful. So far no issues. Im hapoy with my purchase.

Solid and secure...easy to install. We love it. i don't understand why it only comes with one screen. Both glass pains are removable.I didn't feel the need for the seal kit and I was right, no need to buy the add on. A lock set (deadbolt and knob) are needed and cost additional.

Love it

Had it installed yesterday, looks really good and is sturdy .I did not give it 5stars because it cannot accommodate a mortise lock set I bought for it.

I wish i was able to give this door a better review, i like the look and the glass inserts, but, the design of the lockset and frame is horrible, if you buy this door be prepared to modify the frame to be able to allow the deadbolt to be able to lock correctly had to use a dremel to shave off some of the framing to allow deadbolt and knobs to close, for the price this door should have a more sturdy frame and uses small phillips screws to secure frame to home, this is more like a stormdoor than a security door, this replaced a cheaper security door that actually was a security door with solid framing that had one way bolts to secure to home, if the frame was more like a security door frame and less like a storm door and the design of the lockset holes was better this would be a 4 or 5 star review, looks great on house but more of a Storm Door than Security Door.

This security door was the right choice for me. It is durable and the choice of screen or class inserts is great. The inserts are easy for me to lift and put into place. It looks great and I feel greater security.

I bought one for my bedroom that has a door leading outside. I have a German Sheppard and wanted the peace of mind that he could see outside without being able to go through the door. It is very well made & not to difficult to install. Its solid and looks great. I bought one for my mother after she seen it she wanted one. I installed hers when it came in. It was easier then mine except for the bug sweep cracked as I was sawing it to fit. I called the company that makes the doors to buy a replacement, the guy told me he would see if they had any & would call back if thy didn't. He took my info & within 2 weeks I received it with no charge. Costumer service is also great. I would recommend this company's doors to anyone.

My handy neighbor and I worked about three hours to install this door. The original door was removed prior, so we knew this door would fit in the space. The video gave me confidence we could install it. Everything went according to instructions until we got to the DOOR CLOSER. Most comments above noted it doesn't fit at top of door, but instructions ALSO SAY USE MIDDLE OF DOOR. It fits just fine even with the glass inserts. HOWEVER the middle part of the door is reinforced metal and it was VERY difficult to drill holes into that metal. We broke one drill bit (a reinforced one!) and dulled a second one but got the thing on. YAY. UPDATE: After having the door installed for a month, the door closer (which others have disparaged online as being of low quality) completely stopped its pneumatic function and tried to slam shut immediately on our heels. VERY uncomfortable. I adjusted it using the screw on the end, and it didn't work very well even then. Kept getting worse. When i removed it today, the pneumatic sealed disc of metal inside was just rattling back and forth when i moved the closer. I bought the best one available at the home improvement store ($18 Wrights). It has the exact same size and installation hardware, so all i did was pop the pins on this door's closer, and replace the closer with the new one. IF YOU BUY THIS DOOR, DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME USING THE INCLUDED CLOSER: BUY A $20 REPLACEMENT AND INSTALL IMMEDIATELY. TOSS THE ORIGINAL. The door is WONDERFUL -- the closer, not so much.

The product is very sturdy and secure. The installation was quick and easy and the installers were exceptionally professional.

The door is shorter, I have 32x 78

Easy to install with instructions provided

we are on our second door of this model. The hinges on the first one were not up to the task and they wore and the door started to lean so they provided another under warranty. Kudos to Home Depot on their help along with Unique Home Designs. the second one has held up well. There are complaints about the screens being easy to punch through and unlock the door. Well, ya. They are just screens and as you can observe the openings are large enough to reach through. If you really want the security, then leave up the glass. while they can break the glass, at least it still acts as a deterrent. we are building a new home and my wife's main complain is that the designs are a pain to keep clean se are are looking a very basic door, like the model called the Gaurdian. But it only comes in black. Wait, but not really. They renamed it the Paladin to come in other colors and jacked the price up by $600. What the heck guys? Just so we can have a simple white version? Really? Sadly, this has lead us to consider other options in the market.

EXCELLENT, FANTASTIC and AMAZING. I truly love it.

I brought this door and had Home Depot’s pros to install. The looks good but it has started to rust within two weeks. Plus the pros services did an awful job of installing my door. Home Depot does not have the quality of customer care like they used to.

This door is awful, I could not get out of my house. 2 workers just help me get out of the house. The bottom glass and screen fell out. You will be making a bad investment. I was told all a burglar has to do is break the glass turn the knob and the door is open.

Beautiful design. 30 X 80 are hard to find. Love the powder coat finish.

hinges split from weight of door, all on one bar. Mfg will not sell any parts. I was actually told to buy a new door by Unique Home Designs. Now I have to find somebody to fabricate hinges. They appear to sell exclusively to Home Depot.

Excellent quality security screen door. Very happy with this purchase.

We were very pleased with door arrived when said it wood.Just a little at door bar is not finish see metal will touch up.Overall good door

Solid construction. Really looks good. Works great on an enclosed porch making it unnecessary to have a regular door too.
