Sealed exterior doors
A warped entry door is more than just an eyesore. It can drag against the frame, stick in damp weather, and raise your heating bill. Replacing it with a modern, well-installed door stops those drafts and keeps moisture outside where it belongs.
The process starts with a full inspection of the rough opening and sub-sill. We fix any rot, square the frame, and set the new door with a continuous seal. This ensures smooth operation all year and an exterior that can withstand Vancouver’s wettest months. For a closer look at how we handle each job, see exterior door installation in Vancouver.
Vancouver’s winter rains are heavy, and a poorly sealed exterior door lets moisture into your subfloor. If the framing stays damp, it can lead to costly structural repairs. A tight, well-flashed installation prevents this problem before it starts.
Many homes in Vancouver still have original doors that were not upgraded for our coastal climate. Swelling wood frames and corroded thresholds are common. Replacing them with a fiberglass or steel door that has a thermal break and full weatherstripping provides a door designed to handle humidity without sticking or peeling paint.
Sill pan and flashing details
In Vancouver’s wet climate, we install a sloped sill pan that extends past the exterior sheathing. We use a strong, pressure-treated sill plate set in a continuous bead of sealant. Then, we flash the jambs with flexible tape that overlaps the house wrap. This setup directs any water that gets past the siding down and out, preventing it from reaching the subfloor.
The door unit is usually fiberglass with a thermal break. This material is chosen because it won’t swell or rot like wood. We shim the frame to make it plumb and square, fastening through the jambs into the framing with corrosion-resistant screws. Low-expansion foam fills the gap between the frame and rough opening. Finally, we install a drip cap over the head trim with end dams to keep rain from tracking behind the siding.
A properly installed exterior door in Vancouver must keep the drainage plane intact. The water-resistive barrier behind the siding overlaps the head flashing, and the jamb flashing overlaps the barrier. This setup directs any moisture on the sheathing outward. A back dam on the sill pan stops water from moving inward under the threshold.
Air leakage is a major cause of moisture problems in coastal climates. We seal the interior side of the frame to the rough opening to create an air barrier. The exterior side remains vapor-permeable to let any trapped moisture dry to the outside. The door’s thermal break helps reduce condensation on the interior frame surface during cold, damp weather.
Wind-driven rain can push water past poorly lapped flashing. We use head flashing with a drip edge and a slight outward slope. All fastener penetrations through the exterior trim are sealed. This layered approach protects the wall assembly from the frequent wetting cycles that happen in Vancouver’s fall and winter.
