How we build them to last

Doors are formed of two galvannealed or stainless steel sheets and are typically 1 3/4" thick, other thicknesses are available.
Doors are internally reinforced with pairs of hat-shaped steel stiffeners. These stiffeners are joined together and run vertically (not more that 6 " apart) the full length of the door. The stiffeners are spot welded every 4" o.c. to both faces of the door and arc-welded to each other top and bottom.
Voids between stiffeners are filled with Polystyrene, Polyurethane or small celled Honeycomb core.
There are no seams on the faces or edges of the doors. Vertical edges of the doors are continuously seam-welded the full height of the door.
Exterior doors are capped to retard moisture from penetrating the door.
Hinge reinforcements are 3/16" thick.
All steel doors are internally reinforced at the top with a 12 gauge plate on both sides of the door. This is for application of surface applied door closers and holders.
Glass window kit is of standard steel moulding with no exposed screws on the secure side of the door.
Louvers are standard design for required applications.
Doors are chemically pre-treated and given one coat of rust inhibitive metal primer.
