Hollow Metal Doors & Frames, Wood Doors & Hardware

Ordering the correct commercial door is paramount for several critical reasons, directly impacting a business’s functionality, security, and aesthetic appeal. The right door ensures optimal traffic flow, enhances safety by deterring unauthorized access and offering necessary fire ratings, and contributes to the overall energy efficiency of a building. Furthermore, selecting doors that complement a building’s architecture and branding creates a positive first impression, reflecting professionalism and attention to detail. Conversely, an incorrect door choice can lead to compromised security, frequent maintenance issues, and increased operational costs, highlighting the importance of careful consideration and professional consultation during the selection process.

Ordering Steps

Step 1

Measure your rough opening and wall depth: Choose what type of hollow metal frame you need based on the rough opening size, the wall thickness, where the opening is located, and how the frame will be anchored.

Step 2

Determine Door/Frame Handing and Size: Understand the direction the door swings (left or right, and reverse options) and accurately measure the height, width, and thickness of the door, as well as hinge pitching and strike location.

Step 3

Determine Hinge Placements: Identify the location of hinges on the door frame and measure the vertical distance from the top of the door frame to the top of each hinge, and the distance between hinges. If ordering a frame with the door, hinge placements will be fabricated to fit the frame.

Step 4

Choose Your Hardware: Decide how you want your door to stay closed, how to secure it, and what style fits your decor.
