A steel or a fiberglass door?

Thanks.

Fiberglass - hands down. No dents, better insulation, many other
reasons.

Thank you. I have tentatively ordered a fiberglass door today. The
guys will be out to measure Weds., and to let me know if my Baldwin
lockset will work with it.

Can a brass door kick plate be attached to a fiberglass door?

Yes - no problem.

My preferred method is double sided tape to make it stay, and brass
screws to fill the holes. The screws alone WILL do the job.

I have never had to use the double back tape, but then again, I have
never taken it off one door and put onto another. I have some tape on
hand in case the guys need it.

Then, again, I like your idea better. Just use the tape, and set the
screws in the holes. Thanks.

Thanks.
