What We Manufacture
From the original 1950s homes built when the Guildwood Village subdivision was first carved out of the Guild estate to newer builds filling in since, we manufacture every front and back entry door to fit your home's exact opening. Every door is solid fiberglass, finished the way you want it, never picked off a shelf.
Custom Front Doors
Your front door sits on land that was once home to the Guild of All Arts, an artist colony where painters, sculptors, and craftspeople lived and worked through the Depression. We build it in solid fiberglass, sized to your exact opening, with finish options like Oak Grain, Mahogany Grain, Smooth, or Contemporary.
Custom Full-Glass Front Door with Sidelights
Custom Back Doors
A number of Guildwood homes sit close to the bluffs near Guild Park, where the back of the property takes on real lake-effect wind and moisture. We build it in the same solid fiberglass as our front doors, sized to your exact opening and finished to hold up to it.
Custom Back Door
Why Guildwood Homeowners Choose EHI Custom Doors
Search for a custom door manufacturer in Guildwood and most of what comes up focuses on general Scarborough weatherproofing, without much sense of what actually makes the neighbourhood distinct. We manufacture to your actual opening, on land with a real history of craftsmanship behind it.
Built on Land With a Craft History
Guildwood was carved out of the old Guild of All Arts estate, where artists and craftspeople once lived and worked on the same ground. We build every door with that same attention, not off a shelf.
Built for Bluff-Edge Wind
Homes near Guild Park and the bluffs face real lake-effect wind and moisture, more than a typical inland lot. Our foam core and tongue-in-groove seal are built to handle it.
Real Pricing, Made in Ontario
Imported European systems often carry a lead time of eight weeks or more. Ours is manufactured close by, priced plainly: single doors start at $2,500 installed, double doors start at $5,100.
Our Services
Every door we build for a Guildwood home goes through the same three steps, all under our own roof. No dealer network, no subcontractor showing up on install day who was not part of your original quote.
Door Manufacturing
Your door starts as raw fiberglass at our Whitchurch-Stouffville workshop and leaves built for your home's exact opening, whatever era it was actually framed in.
Get Your Door ManufacturedDoor Installation
Once your door is built, the same team that made it handles the install, taking care of the framing, the fit, and the final seal.

When a door is too far gone, cracked, rotted, or letting in drafts no matter how many times it has been patched or resealed, we replace it with a custom fiberglass door built to your exact opening.
Get Your Door ReplacedWhat Makes an EHI Door Different
Every entry door we build for a Guildwood home is built around a foam core and a full moisture barrier, which is exactly why we can back it with a lifetime warranty on the fiberglass. Here is what actually goes into it.
CFC-Free Polyurethane Foam Core
Every door is built around a CFC-free polyurethane foam core, giving you six times the insulation of a standard wood door, worth having near the wind exposure the bluffs bring.
Tongue-in-Groove Moisture Barrier
Every door uses a tongue-in-groove rail lock system with composite PVC rails, keeping it fully waterproof at every seam. No swelling, no rot working in from lake moisture or melting snow.
Lifetime Fiberglass Warranty
Fiberglass does not rot, crack, or break down the way an older wood door eventually does, so we back every door with a lifetime warranty on the fiberglass itself.
Multipoint Lock System
Every door comes with a multipoint locking system, engaging at several points along the frame instead of one deadbolt, in finishes like satin nickel, oil rubbed bronze, and matte black.

Custom Manufacturing and Professional Installation
Your door is built specifically for your home, then installed by our own team, with a full quality check before we leave to make sure everything operates the way it should.
Door Styles That Fit Guildwood Homes
Guildwood Village was built starting in the 1950s on land sold off from the old Guild of All Arts estate, and most original homes date to that same postwar period. The right door depends on how much of that original character your home still carries.
Wood-Grain Finishes for Original 1950s Homes
For the postwar homes that make up most of Guildwood, an Oak Grain or Mahogany Grain finish sits naturally against brick, without the yearly refinishing a real wood door needs.
Modern Finishes for Newer Builds
Where a home has been rebuilt closer to the bluffs, a smooth, clean-panel door in matte black or charcoal with a slim glass insert tends to fit that architecture better.
Built to Fit, Not Off the Shelf
Either way, every door is fully custom to your opening, so a home from any era of Guildwood's history is never stuck picking from a modern stock size chart.
Real Pricing, No Guesswork
We do not believe in vague estimates, even on land with an artist colony's history behind it. Here is a real starting point for what a new custom fiberglass door costs installed.
Single Door
A single custom fiberglass door for your Guildwood home starts at $2,500 installed, backed by a lifetime warranty on the fiberglass. Final price depends on size, glass, finish, and hardware like a single point or multipoint lock.
Double Door
A double custom fiberglass door, sized for a wider Guildwood entrance, starts at $5,100 installed. Final price depends on the same factors as a single door, scaled up for two panels.
Serving Guildwood From Our Whitchurch-Stouffville Workshop
We will not pretend our workshop sits near Guild Park. It's on Bloomington Road in Whitchurch-Stouffville, about 41 minutes up the 404.
What that drive buys you is a door built by the same team that installs it, manufactured in Ontario instead of shipped over from a European supplier on a months-long wait. Every measurement, every cut, and every install for your Guildwood home comes from one crew, start to finish.
Awards & Recognition
In 2021, Efficient Home Improvements, the team behind EHI Custom Doors, was named a HomeStars Best of Award Winner and has held HomeStars Verified status ever since, recognition that takes a full year of real reviews and a background check to earn, not something handed out for free.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to replace a front door in Guildwood?
In most cases, no. The City of Toronto does not require a permit to replace a door in an existing opening on a detached, semi-detached, or row house, as long as the size and structural support of the opening stay the same.
Is my property near Guild Park under any special conservation rules?
Properties directly adjacent to Guild Park and the bluff edge can fall under conservation authority regulations for certain kinds of construction near the ravine or shoreline, but a standard like-for-like door replacement is generally unaffected. We can help you confirm what applies to your specific property.
How much does a custom front door cost in Guildwood?
A single custom fiberglass door starts at $2,500 installed, and a double door starts at $5,100 installed. Final price depends on size, glass, finish, and hardware, but those two numbers are the real starting point.
Can you match an original 1950s Guildwood home?
Yes. Matching proportions and trim on the postwar homes original to Guildwood Village is routine work for us, not a special request.
Choosing custom doors in Guildwood should not mean settling for a stock size that ignores the neighbourhood's real history or the wind coming off the bluffs nearby. EHI Custom Doors manufactures, installs, and replaces fiberglass front and back entry doors built to your home's exact opening.
Every door is backed by a lifetime warranty on the fiberglass, priced honestly from the start, and installed by the same team that built it. If you are ready for an entry door that is actually made for your Guildwood home, call us at 647-952-2311 or fill out the form above for a free quote.
