Understanding The Growing Popularity Of Steel Doors
Our company is specialized in metallic protection, whether it comes to roller shutters (both metallic and polycarbonate), steel doors and other types of security. Roller shutters represent some of the most popular options out there – pretty much every business has some sort of protection. However, based on your business or residential needs, we may also recommend steel doors at times.
Obviously, we explain why we make suggestions and why we believe some types of protection are better than others for your particular situation, but the final decision will always be yours.
Keep in mind that every building has doors. If you have automatic shutters for a business, you may also have a side door to be able to get inside and reach the button. Some extra protection will work wonders for your peace of mind.
Steel doors are not made of one big slab of steel. Instead, they actually have a lighter core based on polyurethane or polystyrene (we commercialize both options) covered in a thick layer of steel. Based on the proportions used of each material, doors will have different ratings. The minimum recommendation for this industry is a 16/24 gauge – this is why we only deal with this gauge or better.
What makes steel doors so popular?
It is quite simple – you can opt for wood, metallic or steel doors. Sure, there are more options out there, but steel seems to become the best choice on the market. It is durable and safe. You want security, right? Otherwise, you would not even be bothered about getting a door anyway.
In a world where burglars and thieves are more advanced than ever, you want to keep them away from your home, business or family. While they can still break through a steel door, metallic doors are sturdy and loud, so neighbors or people walking by would be alerted.
Benefits of steel doors
The actual security is by far the most important benefit in the process. But this is not everything.
A steel door represents a must if the entrance is exposed to too many negative factors. Traffic, humidity or people will ruin it. Weather conditions are just as bad. Any kind of external factor will take its toll on your door.
Then, steel doors are quite versatile too. We provide a plethora of different models. Whether it comes to the design, size, pattern or color, you can talk to our customer service representatives and we will make it happen.
Thinking about moving out at some point or another? A steel door will increase the value of your property. It is just as efficient as an alarm system. It may sound a bit unusual – after all, businesses, schools and institutions tend to invest in metal doors. However, more and more clients inquire about such modern solutions for their residential properties.
Who steel doors are recommended to?
We recommend steel doors to anyone who cares about looks and security. We have installed steel doors on residential homes – not too many internal doors though, but mostly external doors. As for businesses, the high traffic asks for a durable solution.
