Summer is the perfect time to refresh your home’s exterior and boost your curb appeal. Whether you're preparing for guests, listing your home, or simply want to enjoy a more beautiful entryway, a few simple upgrades can make a big impact. At Plastpro, we believe your front door should combine beauty and performance—and summer is the ideal season to make that happen. Here are six smart, stylish ways to refresh your home this summer.
1. Make a Statement with a New Front Door
Your front door is more than just an entryway—it's a focal point that sets the tone for your entire home. Swapping out an old or outdated door with a new, stylish fiberglass model can instantly elevate your home's appearance.
Plastpro offers a wide variety of door styles to complement everything from modern to farmhouse to traditional designs. Looking for a pop of personality? Try a bold color like navy blue, deep green, or even a soft blush for a trend-forward look.
2. Choose a Door That Can Handle the Heat
Summer heat and humidity can wreak havoc on wood doors, causing them to warp, crack, or fade. Fiberglass doors, on the other hand, are built to withstand the elements.
Plastpro doors feature our exclusive HydroShield Technology, which offers a moisture-resistant barrier to protect against warping and damage. They're also highly durable and low-maintenance, making them ideal for hot or humid climates.
3. Refresh with Paint or Stain
If you're not ready to replace your door, a fresh coat of paint or stain can breathe new life into your entryway. Summer is the perfect time to experiment with cheerful hues or rich wood tones.
Plastpro fiberglass doors are specially engineered for a flawless paint or stain finish. Be sure to follow our Finishing Guide to ensure long-lasting results.
4. Upgrade Hardware and Accessories
New hardware can make a major visual impact with minimal effort. Swap out your old doorknob for a sleek handle set, add a modern knocker, or upgrade your house numbers to create a cohesive, updated look.
Pair your door color with complementary metal finishes—like matte black, brushed nickel, or aged brass—for a polished effect.
5. Keep Cool with Energy-Efficient Features
Hot temperatures can cause your energy bills to rise, but the right door can help regulate your indoor climate. Plastpro fiberglass doors are designed with insulated cores that reduce heat transfer and improve energy efficiency.
Compared to traditional wood or steel doors, our fiberglass options provide superior insulation, helping you stay comfortable all summer long.

6. Create a Welcoming, Seasonal Entryway
Complete your summer refresh with entryway decor that welcomes guests and reflects your personal style. Think seasonal plants in matching planters, a fresh doormat, or outdoor lighting that enhances safety and ambiance.
Small touches like these can create a big visual impact and make your entryway feel inviting, especially in the longer daylight hours of summer.
