What Sets Home Guard Apart From Pella?

Pella is one of the major brands that are synonymous with windows, in huge part due to their recognizable name and massive advertising budget. But what about the quality of their windows?

In reality, Home Guard’s replacement windows have substantially better energy-efficient ratings, stronger lifetime non-prorated guarantees, and a much more attractive price point.

With Pella, you’re paying for the name. With Home Guard, you’re paying for the best replacement windows and warranties offered by any company in the field.

Energy Efficiency
ProVia offers the most energy-efficient front door in the US

Earned 15 Energy Star Partner of the Year Sustained Excellence Awards
Therma-Tru cannot measure up to ProVia’s energy efficiency standards.
Cost
Although more expensive than Therma-Tru, ProVia’s doors offer an exceptionally high standard of quality that Therma-Tru simply cannot match.
Although Therma-Tru is cheaper, you truly get what you pay for with a sub-standard product lacking in all the benefits of ProVia’s doors.
Warranty
Limited lifetime warranties, including seal failure and breaking glass.
Limited lifetime warranties, but barebones compared to what ProVia covers.

What Sets ProVia Apart From Therma-Tru?

ProVia and Therma-Tru are two of the more recognizable replacement door brands, but there are key differences between them.

For example, ProVia offers beautiful products that, although somewhat expensive, include an incredible amount of bells and whistles. Better yet, ProVia stands by their products, even going as far as to offer a lifetime warranty.

On the other hand, Therma-Tru is often considered to be more of a budget door, but the cheaper prices are reflected in their generally poorer performance.

ProVia doors vs. Therma-Tru doors

Both ProVia and Therma-Tru are popular entry door brands, but how do they stack up when directly compared to each other? That’s what we’re about to find out!
Door Materials
ProVia’s replacement door materials include fiberglass, steel and vinyl (which is reserved for patio doors), while Therma-Tru mainly sticks to fiberglass and steel. However, despite using similar materials, ProVia’s quality greatly outpaces Therma-Tru’s. Case in point is ProVia’s incredible steel doors, which are easily the strongest on the market. Therma-Tru’s simply don’t measure up.
Available Styles & Customization Options
Both companies offer substantial customization options, such as different paint, glazing, staining, glass, grids and more. In cases such as this, it’s always best to go for the brand that provides the best initial product, and that would be ProVia.
Energy Efficiency
ProVia is proud to offer the most energy-efficient front door in the US. It is 43% thicker than other doors, providing four times more insulation than a typical fiberglass door. Better yet, they’ve been partnered with Energy Star since 2002, and have even received our 15th Energy Star Partner of the Year Sustained Excellence Award from the EPA and Department of Energy. Therma-Tru cannot say the same. There’s simply no comparison.
Cost
At first glance, Therma-Tru’s cheaper price may seem appealing, as their doors can sometimes be purchased for about half the price of ProVia’s after installation. However, with that cheaper price comes a cheaper (inferior) product. The security, lifespan, efficacy, and durability of a Therma-Tru door are nothing compared to what ProVia brings to the table, so the cost is worth it in the long run (not to mention what you’ll save on maintenance costs.)
Warranty
ProVia offers limited lifetime warranties, including coverage for lifetime seal failures or breaking glass. Therma-Tru also offers a lifetime warranty for their replacement doors, but it’s barebones compared to what ProVia provides, and it doesn’t even cover glass. Overall, ProVia has developed high-quality replacement doors that contain all the benefits of doors made by Therma-Tru, but at a much better quality, with better service and even better warranties.
