Front door size guide: Finding the right door size for your entry
Trying a new front door on for size? We’ve got the sizing details you need to know. Find out the average size of a front door, explore custom sizing options, and learn about the process of expanding or shrinking down an entry door.
Standard front door sizes
Our entry doors are available in a wide variety of sizes. A standard size front door is 3-feet wide by 6-feet-8-inches tall with variations in between.
Standard sizes:
- Width of 3’ or 3’ 6”
- Height of 6’ 8” or 8’
There are standard sizes for a front door, but that doesn’t mean doors aren’t available in other sizes. With our variety of options, you can easily find the size that's just right for your home.
Custom sizes:
- Widths from 2’ 1” to 3’ 7”
- Height of up to 10’
Door sizing and accessibility
If you’re designing a home with accessibility in mind, pay attention to door width. For example, in a commercial setting, a 32-inch minimum width is required to accommodate wheelchair users. Our custom doors can be sized in 1/8-inch increments, so it’s possible to get very precise. There are, of course, many considerations to keep in mind when planning for accessibility. For example, talk to your builder or architect about implementing universal design principles. When applied to a building, this concept seeks to make a space usable for as many people as possible, regardless of age, abilities, and other factors.
Double door sizing
We also have double front doors that are available in a range of sizes.
Double door sizes:
- Widths from 4’ 2” to 7’ 2”
- Heights from 6’ 10” to 7’
A double front door makes a grand statement, and you’ll find our double front doors available in a range of sizes.
