I'm in the market for some high-quality fiberglass or composite front doors that really mimic the look of wood. Our local supply house has a few options, but they start at around $7K and the styles and colors are quite limited, especially for the wood-look doors we want. We've seen some good online sites offering similar doors for much less than half that price. We're looking for a lighter, almost unfinished wood color. Here's an example of the style we're after: [this door](https://www.krosswood.com/cdn/shop/products/farmhouse-knotty-alder-9-lite-glass-arch-top-v-groove-exterior-double-door-192618_1080x.jpg?v=1713976082). Since solid wood won't work for our situation due to the porch overhang, we need alternatives. Any suggestions?

Just a heads-up, the more specific you get about style, the pricier it tends to get. Most lumber yards, Home Depot, and Lowe's can custom order doors similar to the one you posted. Keep in mind that choices like the glass shape can add a few hundred bucks to the final price. You're likely looking at around $4K for a decent door, though.
If you want to explore options, visiting local showrooms can be really helpful. They might have something that fits your needs better than what you find online. Plus, you can see the quality in person! It's worth the trip to check them out.
You should definitely check out doors.com. They're based in Austin and have a solid selection! If you need something specific, don't hesitate to reach out to them — they're quite helpful!
Thanks for the tip! I'll give them a look.
