My wife and I are looking at composite and fiberglass entry doors for the home we’re building and we have no experience with the various brands.
Advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I'ved had good luck with Therma-Tru doors; others that post here have had different experiences. It seems to be a regional thing- different assembly points.
Look up on the search feature and you should get quite a few hits.
If you want one that is high in quality... you can't go wrong with a Pease door. I heard somewhere that they got bought by Pella... but the plant and brand still operate on their own.
I have installed many a door... but by FAR the best I have seen is Pease (be aware they are a bit pricey).
FWIW, if you are anywhere close to Cincinatti... they have an outlet that sells overstocks and slight blemishes... all with full warranty. The price will be about 1/4 of what a normal Pease will cost.
Thanks to both of you for the info.
