by Wayne Foreman

When it comes to commercial doors, insulation is key to saving energy and protecting your building. At CDF Distributors, our hollow metal and hurricane-rated doors both feature an R-rating of 7.14, providing superior thermal performance.

R-Rating of Hollow Metal Doors

Hollow metal doors are a popular choice for commercial buildings because they are strong, secure, and energy-efficient. Our hollow metal doors boast an R-rating of 7.14, ensuring excellent insulation. These doors provide:

  • Lower Energy Costs: Minimize heat loss and reduce energy bills.
  • Consistent Indoor Temperatures: Maintain a stable environment year-round.
  • Enhanced Efficiency: Ideal for meeting energy code requirements and improving overall building performance.

In addition to their insulation properties, our hollow metal doors are designed to withstand heavy use in high-traffic areas. Their durability makes them ideal for warehouses, offices, and other commercial spaces where security and thermal protection are essential. With the combination of a strong steel core and advanced insulation materials, these doors offer long-lasting performance without compromising on energy efficiency.

R-Rating of Hurricane Doors

Our hurricane-rated doors also deliver an R-rating of 7.14, combining extreme weather protection with top-tier insulation. These doors provide:

  • Superior Storm Defense: Built to withstand strong winds and flying debris.
  • Energy Savings: Reduce heating and cooling costs without sacrificing safety.
  • Durability You Can Trust: Long-lasting performance in even the harshest conditions.

Our hurricane doors are specifically engineered to meet building codes in areas prone to severe weather. The robust construction not only protects against storms but also helps maintain interior climate control. This dual-purpose design ensures your property stays safe and energy-efficient, no matter what Mother Nature throws your way.

Why R-Ratings Matter for Your Commercial Doors

A door's R-rating directly impacts your building's energy efficiency and comfort. Our doors provide:

  1. Cost Savings: Improved insulation means lower utility expenses.
  2. Code Compliance: Our doors meet or exceed insulation standards for commercial properties.
  3. Year-Round Comfort: Keep indoor spaces comfortable, no matter the weather outside.

A higher R-rating translates to better thermal resistance, which is crucial in maintaining a controlled environment. Poorly insulated doors allow heat transfer, leading to increased energy consumption. By choosing CDF, you invest in a solution that reduces energy waste, and meets modern energy efficiency standards.
