Does home insurance cover front doors?

My front door is basically unusable after a bad storm last week. I’m probably going to need to get it replaced. Will home insurance cover front doors?

Any damage to your home can be a stressful experience. Thankfully, home insurance covers damage to front doors as long as a named peril caused the damage.
Home insurance protects homeowners from sudden, unexpected damage. Any
perils
named on your policy will be covered, including:
  • Storms
  • Fires
  • Falling objects
  • Wind
  • Lightning
  • Hail
In your case, since a storm damaged the door, the repairs will be covered.
If the door is damaged or needs to be replaced due to age, wear and tear, or poor maintenance, the repairs will not be covered.
