Why Basement Entries Are Worth Installing
More Natural Light & Airflow
Installing a walkout door is the best way to give your basement more natural light and make it feel like the rest of your home. A walkout door can also improve your basement’s air quality. Just open it now and then to air things out.
Easy Access to Your Yard
This is a big one. When you have a walkout door, you don’t have to walk upstairs every time you need to go outside. Need to take the dog out? The sliding door is right there. Need to move storage bins or yard tools in and out of your basement? Easy. Your kids can run in and out of the house without tracking dirt into your upstairs living areas. Walkout basements are a lot more useful than dead-end basements.
Easy to Move Storage Items
If you’ve ever tried carrying furniture or holiday decorations up your basement stairs, you’ve probably wondered, “Why don’t we just have a door down here?” Moving bulky furniture up and down your basement stairs is a nightmare. Having a walkout basement door makes it much easier to move things in and out of your basement.
Safer for Emergencies
Installing a walkout door makes your basement safer in the event of a fire, flood, gas leak, or medical emergency. It’s an extra escape route that’s easy to find and use. No matter what the emergency is, you’ll be able to escape your basement faster with a walkout door.
Added Home Value
Adding a walkout door to your basement almost always boosts your home’s value because it makes your basement feel more like a living space. When buyers see a bright basement with a wide sliding glass door, they can immediately imagine using it for all kinds of purposes, from storage to entertainment.
Walkout Door Styles We Can Install
Basements in Columbus come in all shapes and sizes. We’ve installed basement walkout doors for older stone-wall basements in Clintonville, deeper poured-concrete basements in Worthington and Westerville, and plenty of newly finished basements in Dublin and Hilliard. We offer sliding glass doors, French doors, single exterior doors, and custom doors.
Sliding Glass Doors
Sliding glass doors are one of the most popular options because they’re wide and they bring in the most natural light. Sliding doors are also nice because you don’t have to leave space for them to swing into your basement or patio.
French Doors
French doors let in a lot of natural light and the panes are more stylish than a plain slider. They make your basement feel more like the rest of your home. A lot of people choose French doors if they’re using their basement as a family room or a bedroom.
Single Exterior Doors
Single exterior doors are a simple and cost-effective option if you don’t have room for a wide glass opening. Single entry doors made of fiberglass or steel keep your basement safe and secure.
Custom Doors
We can also work with you to design a custom basement door if your basement has weird wall angles or deeper foundations. We’ll design your door to match the exact size and shape of your opening so you won’t have awkward gaps or weird trim.
