With there’s still a low inventory of homes, many homeowners are simply electing to save money and add value to their house through renovation projects.

But while areas such as bathrooms or kitchens get a lot of attention with remodels, windows and doors can also be ways to save money and add value.

Here are five ways doors and windows in your house give you more bang for your buck, according to FAS Windows & Doors.

Steel and fiberglass-clad doors have five times more insulating value of a solid wood door of the same size. Doors made of those materials are also less likely to rot, are more resistant to insects, help block out noise and are more sturdy to help protect against any impact from hurricanes.

Instead of single-pane windows that have a single sheet of glass between the home’s interior and exterior, dual-plane windows provide extra protection between extreme outdoor temperatures and climate-controlled temperatures inside, according to FAS Windows & Doors.

Dual-plane windows with vinyl or heavy-duty multi-chambered frames and laminated insulating glass are essential to help combat potential hurricane damage because of their sturdiness. They also provide significant energy savings from single-pane glass windows, are shatter-resistant, blocks out more noise and offers better UV protection.
