Local Expertise
Doors For A Florissant Entry
The front door on a Florissant brick ranch is usually not the one the family uses. That is the side door off the driveway or the carport, the one with the storm door that has been closing hard for years. The front entry sits on a concrete stoop behind an iron rail, it is narrow by modern standards, and it has been painted more times than anyone can count.
Both are worth looking at, for different reasons. We ask which one you actually walk through, how much weather the entry takes, and whether the storm door is holding heat against the slab all summer. Then we replace the door, the frame and the threshold as one assembly, which is the only way the draft at the bottom actually goes away.
The Product
What Makes A Door Worth Replacing
A door is the one exterior product you touch every single day, so how it feels in the hand matters as much as how it performs against the weather.
- Insulated fiberglass and steel entry doors with thermal breaks
- Sliding and hinged patio doors with multi-point locks
- Storm doors sized and fitted to the existing opening
Florissant Specifics
Why These Door Features Matter In Florissant
The door off the driveway
On most of these homes the side or carport entry is the real front door, and it was the cheapest one in the house when it was built. That is the one to spend on: insulated core, hardware rated for daily use and a threshold that seals.
A narrow entry on a concrete stoop
Fifties entries are tight, and the brick around them is not moving. Working within the existing opening we can still change the glass, the panel style and the hardware, so the front reads updated without touching the masonry.
Patio doors that arrived later
The slider at the back usually came with the patio, sometime in the seventies or eighties, and it is aluminum. Those drag, cloud over and leak air at the interlock. A new unit runs on fresh hardware and seals at the sill where the old one never did.
What You Get
Built Right, Start To Finish
Real Security
Reinforced strike plates, multi-point hardware and solid cores: the parts of a door a break-in actually tests.
A Tighter Seal
Compression weatherstripping and adjustable thresholds stop the draft you can feel across the entry floor.
Finished Properly

Testimonials
What Homeowners Say
My experience with Shinnova was great. I want to thank Jeremy Sweatman for convencing me to get it done. My house looks new again and it is much warmer inside. The workers were very professional. They cleaned up after themselves every night before they left. Thank you very much.
We are extremely impressed with the professionalism of everyone we worked with Jeremy the bomb in explaining sale of windows and the process, Butch for guiding the installation and Dan for all the follow up on progress with delivery. Would recommend hands down we are actually on our second order. The Murphys

Questions
Florissant Doors FAQ
How long does a door installation take?
A single entry or patio door is usually a one-day job. The opening is never left open overnight: removal, installation, insulation, sealing and trim all happen in the same visit.
Can I keep my existing sidelights?
Often yes, if they are in good condition and the proportions still work with the new slab. We will tell you honestly when replacing the full unit gives a better result than keeping mismatched glass.
Do I need a permit to replace a door in Florissant?
For a like-for-like replacement, usually not. If the opening changes, or the house sits in the Old Town historic district, there is a permit and a review, and we handle both.
Should the storm door go back on?
Not always, and it is worth asking. On a shaded north entry a storm door earns its place. On a door that takes full afternoon sun it traps heat against the slab, which is hard on the finish. We will tell you which one you have.
