Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about commercial metal doors

What gauge steel should I specify for commercial doors?
For most commercial applications, 18 gauge (HMMA Level 2) provides the best balance of durability and cost. High-traffic areas like lobbies may benefit from 16 gauge (Level 3). Storage rooms and utility areas can use 20 gauge (Level 1) for cost savings.
What fire ratings are required for commercial doors?
Fire ratings depend on door location and local codes. Typical requirements: corridor doors (20-45 minutes), stairwell doors (60-90 minutes), and mechanical/electrical rooms (60-90 minutes). All fire-rated doors require complete UL-listed assemblies including frame and hardware.
How do I specify doors for ADA compliance?
ADA-compliant doors require a 32\" minimum clear width at 90°, thresholds no higher than 1/2\", hardware operable without tight grasping, and closers adjusted for a 5-second minimum close time. Our commercial doors can be configured to meet these requirements.
What core type should I use for office doors?
Standard honeycomb core works well for most office doors. For privacy, polystyrene core (STC 30-33) improves acoustics. Fire-rated areas require steel-stiffened or mineral core depending on the required rating.
Can commercial metal doors accommodate access control?
Yes. Doors can be factory-prepared for electric strikes, mag locks, electronic locks, and card readers. Specify access control requirements when ordering to ensure proper reinforcement and preparation.
What finish options are available for commercial doors?
Options include shop primer (for field painting), standard powder coat (AAMA 2603), premium powder coat (AAMA 2604), or architectural powder coat (AAMA 2605). Special finishes include antimicrobial and anti-graffiti coatings.
How long do commercial metal doors last?
Properly installed and maintained commercial metal doors typically last 25-40 years depending on gauge, traffic level, and maintenance. 18 gauge doors in standard commercial use last 25-30 years. Heavy-duty 16 gauge doors can last 35+ years.
What is the lead time for commercial doors?
Standard commercial configurations typically ship in 2-3 weeks. Custom sizes or special configurations require 4-6 weeks. Fire-rated doors may need additional time for certification documentation. Contact us for project-specific lead times.
