Steel Door Installation & Replacement

A highly durable entry door

Steel doors first came onto the market in 1904, and have remained as a staple in American businesses and homes for their superior fire-ratings and excellent durability. Though they are more commonly found in commercial buildings, these doors are also frequently used as exterior doors and garage entry doors.

Contrary to the name, these doors are not constructed entirely of steel. Rather, these doors are typically constructed with a polystyrene or polyurethane core and then clad with a durable steel coating. These steel coatings range in thickness, and this is what determines the fire-rating of the door itself. Experts recommend selecting doors with a gauge of at least 16 to 24 for maximum fire protection.

The many benefits and security options to steel doors

These doors were traditionally very plain, but in more recent years, the options for customization have become expansive. Manufacturers now offer many different colors and design options such as windows. It’s important with any door to match the aesthetic with the overall look and feel of your home or business.

It is key to remember that not all steel doors are necessarily fire-rated. A fire-rated door will be labeled as such by a sticker that is clearly displayed on the door itself, as the placement is mandated by building codes around the United States. Generally, a fire-rated door will offer around a 20 gauge that will allow for 20 minutes of fire-resistance. These 20 minutes can ensure the safety of everyone within the home or business, saving lives in an emergency.
