Introduced earlier this year, Masonite M-Pwr Smart Doors are the first residential exterior doors to integrate power, lights, a video doorbell and smart lock into the door system. They employ patent-pending, Underwriters Laboratories (UL) certified technology to connect residential front doors to a home’s electrical system and wireless internet network.

To ensure that the doors are “always on” in the event of a power outage, an emergency backup battery can sustain system power up to 24 hours when fully charged. The Masonite M-Pwr smartphone app enables homeowners to remotely program and control motion-activated LED welcome lighting as well as to confirm whether the door is open or closed at any time.

Masonite M-Pwr Smart Doors are currently offered in new home construction through builder partners in North Carolina, Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee and California, with expanded availability anticipated in the coming months. These intelligently designed premium fiberglass doors are available in a variety of styles, colors and finishes, including multiple glass options.
