Commercial doors are versatile and used in a wide range of applications. Common commercial projects include doctor’s offices, banks, churches, small office buildings, and small hotels. These doors are designed to meet the unique demands of various commercial settings, ensuring security, durability, and aesthetic appeal.
There are two options available for commercial doors: Hollow Metal and Architectural Wood. Both of these options can be fire-rated for up to 90 minutes. However, Architectural Wood doors also offer a 20-minute fire rating, providing you with more flexibility in your choices. It’s important to note that these doors need to be installed correctly within a suitable frame. Additionally, the inclusion of features like lites and louvers may affect the fire rating of these doors.
Hollow Metal doors are manufactured at the factory according to SteelCraft specifications for hinges and bores. This means they are not compatible with standard frames. They also come with reinforcements to accommodate panic hardware and door closers.

Aluminum Columns are a lightweight, loadbearing option for porches and decks. It is designed as a decorative, self-supporting element for porches, entrances, driveway-over-hangs, and many other applications. Powder coated with a baked on coating, the aluminum collection has a low maintenance, uniform finish. The aluminum collection comes prefinished in white.
If round porch columns are not the shape you are looking for, square aluminum columns options will take care of any need. The square aluminum columns are available fluted with a standard cap and base. Square column sections snap together. The easiest method to assemble the square columns is to assemble the four section columns into two piece halves, then snap together. It is best to use a rubber mallet for this.
