Boston Doors & Windows Connects Rising Energy Costs to Aging Entry Doors As Massachusetts Homeowners Face the Highest Electricity Rates in the Continental U.S., Front Entry Door Installation Emerges as a Practical Energy-Saving Upgrade
BOSTON, MA, May 13, 2026 — Boston Doors & Windows, a Greater Boston-based door and window installation company, is drawing attention to a frequently overlooked source of residential heat loss: aging and poorly insulated entry doors. Founder Naruan Isidorio, known to clients as Joe, is urging Boston-area homeowners to evaluate their front entry doors in light of mounting state energy costs, pointing to entry door installation in Boston as one of the most practical and accessible steps homeowners can take to reduce energy loss at the threshold.
Massachusetts Energy Costs Among the Highest in the Nation
According to data published by the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER), electricity prices in Massachusetts are expected to be higher in the 2025/26 heating season compared to the prior year, with electric baseboard heating costs projected to rise by 6%. The burden is compounded by findings from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, which confirmed that Boston-area households paid 30.5 cents per kilowatt-hour for electricity in December 2024 — approximately 73% above the national average of 17.6 cents per kWh. Over the past five Decembers, Boston-area electricity prices have exceeded the national average by at least 59%, making energy efficiency a persistent and pressing concern for homeowners across the region.
“Most homeowners think about insulation in their walls or attic, but the front door is one of the most direct points of heat exchange in a home,” said Naruan Isidorio, Founder of Boston Doors & Windows. “An older wood door with worn weatherstripping or a compromised seal can undo a lot of the energy efficiency work happening elsewhere in the house. When we’re talking about electricity rates this far above the national average, that gap at your front door starts to cost real money.”
Insulated Door Options Gaining Ground Across Greater Boston
Boston Doors & Windows has seen increasing interest from Greater Boston homeowners seeking fiberglass and insulated steel entry doors as alternatives to aging wood doors that are prone to warping, drafting, and moisture damage over time. The company, which has served Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, Newton, Somerville, and surrounding communities since 2018, specializes in made-to-order entry door installation in Boston across a range of materials including wood, fiberglass, and steel — with Energy Star-rated options available for homeowners prioritizing thermal performance. The firm installs products from premium manufacturers including Marvin, Andersen, Pella, Harvey, and Therma-Tru, and works closely with clients to match door selection to both their home’s architectural character and its energy performance needs.
“Boston has a lot of older homes, and a lot of those homes still have their original entry doors or doors that haven’t been replaced in decades,” Isidorio added. “Fiberglass and steel doors with insulated cores perform significantly better in our climate than wood doors that have seen years of New England winters.”
