 Masonite partners with TV host and curb appeal expert John Gidding to share tips to upgrade your front door for great-looking first day of school photos with chance to win a new Masonite Performance Door System

TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Masonite International Corporation, a leading global designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of interior and exterior doors, today announced its “New Grade Upgrade” contest just in time for back-to-school. Ten homeowners will win a new Masonite Performance Door System, and one grand prize winner will also receive a front entry makeover virtual consultation by designer John Gidding, former host of HGTV’s “Curb Appeal.”

“The front door is an important focal point of any house, and it plays a big role in the annual back-to-school tradition of taking photos of your kids on the first day of school as they enter a new grade,” says Gidding. “I’m excited to partner with Masonite to help homeowners create a more inviting entry to their homes and a more beautiful backdrop for back-to-school photos in the years to come.”

Beginning August 10, homeowners may enter for a chance to win by visiting this website and submitting a first day of school photo featuring their kids at the front door. Winners will be selected by an independent panel of judges based on criteria including the visual appeal of the photo, the expressiveness of the child or children and the appearance of the door. (See contest rules for complete details.) Participants are also encouraged to share their first day of school photos on Twitter and Instagram, tagging @masonitedoors.

With kids beginning to head back to school now, Gidding is offering five tips to spruce up your front door, from accessorizing your current space to the ultimate update of upgrading to a new door to bring in more light, increase energy efficiency and provide better protection against the elements.

“In addition to making their front entry look great, it’s important that homeowners monitor whether their front door is performing as it should,” says Jennifer Renaud, Chief Marketing Officer, Masonite. “Each year, the door and surrounding frame should be assessed for damage and other signs that it might be time for a new one. The Masonite Performance Door System is a great option for those who wish to upgrade the look of their front door, make their home more energy efficient and keep their family comfortable.”

The Masonite Performance Door System is 64% better at keeping air and water out than the leading competitor, based on certified third-party testing. It features the company’s industry-leading 4-Point Performance Seal to deliver unmatched protection against the elements. The System is offered with all Masonite exterior fiberglass doors, which are available in a variety of styles, colors, and finishes, including multiple glass options.

The Masonite “New Grade, Upgrade” contest will run from 12:01 a.m. EST on August 10, 2022, through 11:59 p.m. EST on September 11, 2022, exclusively via this website. One grand prize winner will receive a new Masonite Performance Door System of their choice with installation, a front entry makeover virtual consultation by designer John Gidding, and a gift card to complete the makeover. Nine first place winners will receive a new Masonite Performance Door System of their choice and installation allowance. Winners will be announced on or about September 19, 2022.
