Commercial Doors Specified for the Job

Specifying a commercial door is a different exercise to choosing a residential one. Cycle rate, security requirement, insulation, opening size and the environment the door works in all change what will actually last. A door that is under specified will cost more in repairs within two years than the difference in price would have been.

Steel is the standard for most commercial applications. It is strong, resists impact damage in high traffic openings, needs very little maintenance and comes in a wide range of configurations. For openings that need light, aluminum and glass sectional doors work well on showrooms and service bays.

We assess the opening, ask how the door will actually be used, and specify a system that matches. Then we install it properly, because a correctly installed door is the difference between a decade of service and a constant repair bill.

Commercial Doors We Install

From standard roll up steel to fire rated and custom sized openings.

What We Consider Before Specifying

Four questions that decide what will actually last in your opening.

01

Cycle Rate

How many times a day the door opens. This drives spring and operator specification more than anything else.

02

Security

Gauge, locking, and whether the door is a primary point of entry.

03

Insulation

Matters for conditioned space, cold storage and anywhere staff work near the opening.

04

Environment

Wash down areas, dust, temperature and vehicle traffic all change what will last.

Specified Right the First Time

A door that is under specified costs more in repairs within two years than the difference in price would have been. We ask how the door will actually be used before we quote anything.

Commercial Install Questions, Answered

The questions St Louis homeowners actually ask us. Call (314) 901-1237 for anything else.
How long does a commercial door installation take?

It depends on the size and type. Standard roll up and sectional doors are typically completed within a day of the door arriving. Custom sizes and fire rated systems take longer to order.

Yes. Commercial doors are regularly built to the opening rather than to a standard size.
A roll up coils into a barrel above the opening and takes almost no ceiling space, which suits tight buildings. A sectional runs back along the ceiling on tracks, insulates better and operates more quietly.
Yes. High speed doors suit openings that cycle constantly, where slow operation costs time and lets conditioned air out.
Yes, the operator, controls and safety devices are specified and installed as part of the system rather than added on afterwards.
Tell us how often the door runs, what passes through it and what the space is used for. Those three answers drive most of the specification.
