Commercial steel doors are a dependable choice for high-traffic environments like schools, offices, and industrial facilities because they offer long-term durability, security, and reduced maintenance costs.

Their widespread use stems from their ability to perform reliably under constant use while meeting safety and building code requirements.
These doors are available in a range of standard configurations, including single and double openings, with options such as lite kits, louvers, hardware, and various glass and core types to support strength, insulation, and efficiency needs.

Choosing a Color for Your Metal Door and Frame
Painting your metal doors and frames is an important step in the installation process to ensure your doors stay in good condition without need for repair or replacement.
Painting metal doors is also an aesthetic choice. The color you choose has an impact on the way people feel. It can draw attention, like a bright red fire door or a brilliant blue that matches a brand color. If you’re refreshing the children’s wing of a hospital, you might choose bright, vibrant colors to bring a little joy to the environment.
Color choice can be overwhelming, so always keep your customer in mind when choosing a color for metal doors. What is the goal of the door? If it’s an entrance, look at the business’ brand color palette to find something eye-catching. If it’s sectioning off portions of a building, take the brand palette and what areas are being sectioned into consideration for an appropriate color.

Commercial Hollow Metal Door FAQ
These terms generally mean the same thing and are often used interchangeably. Common terms for commercial metal doors include hollow metal doors, steel doors, and commercial metal doors. Learn more about the difference here.
Depending on the application and design of the building, hollow metal or steel doors are typically best for exterior openings, while wood doors are more commonly used for interior applications. Climate conditions and local code requirements also play a role in determining the best door for your building. For questions specific to your project, please reach out to a sales representative.
Hollow metal doors can last decades with proper installation and maintenance. They are more durable than wood doors and hold up well in high-traffic commercial environments. Their lifespan can vary depending on exposure to environmental conditions such as moisture, humidity, salt air, temperature fluctuations, and industrial or corrosive environments. With proper finishing and routine care, they are an excellent long-term solution for commercial buildings.
Yes. Hollow metal doors are typically shipped with a factory primer and should be properly painted after installation. If left unfinished, the primer can become stained, discolored, or begin to deteriorate over time—especially in exterior or high-moisture environments. Applying a high-quality finish coat helps protect the door from corrosion, improves durability, and maintains a clean, professional appearance.
