Customer Picks: Top 10 Home Products of 2022
by Rachel Lyon & Beverly Thomas, Editorial Director & Digital Content Contributor for The House Designers
It's time to cover the building products that customers loved the most this year! Unlike professional architects and builders, everyday consumers put more focus into the things that they interact with daily. They want beautiful, practical finishes that not only fit their design schemes, but also can hold up to busy lifestyles. Of course, anything that simplifies building or living in the home will appeal as well. Without further ado, here are the things that stood out most to customers in 2022!
A 2-in-1 Entry Door Solution
With all the advantages storm doors offer, it seems strange that they're typically installed as an add-on. Well, they aren't an afterthought anymore thanks to a partnership between Therma-Tru® and LARSON! The Impressions Integrated Storm Door System lets you select a stylish main entry door and a complementary storm door. They'll be delivered in a single unit that's easier to install and offers better protection for your entry—there's no need to worry about measurements or how you'll fit another door to the frame!
