Security Doors

This topic is for questions regarding the purchase of Security Doors/Storm Doors on units.

Hello!

Do any of you homeowners have security doors already installed on your units? Do you have any advice or recommendations for homeowners who do not?

About 6mo ago, my boyfriend and I submitted the form to request authorization for a security door to be added. The process took 2mo to reject after many emails an phone calls to Errandy for follow-up on the process. Eventually, I was advised that the door I selected was bronze, not black, and I'd have to resubmit the entire process with a black door before I could proceed. I understand that we're going for uniformity here, so even though I think bronze would be more beautiful in our community, I am willing to purchase a black one.

Here's the door I'd like to add, I would appreciate any feedback if you see a reason it may be declined:

This particular door is made by Gatehouse and runs for $161.00 at Lowe's.

Also, if any other homeowners are interested in purchasing doors together, I would be happy to request a group rate discount from Lowe's, Home Depot, etc. if they are interested in our business. Please reply here with an image if you have a different door preference, or have a door that was successfully approved and installed! Thanks!!

Hi Bree:

I know that a few years ago, I wanted to add a security door and checked with the Management Company to see what they authorized. Both of the models that they gave me were well over $300, so I did not add the door as it was beyond what I could afford . You might check with Linda and see what they are authorizing these days.
