Metal doors provide security, fire protection, and durability that wood and fiberglass cannot match. Commercial buildings require them for stairwells, mechanical rooms, and building separation. High-security applications demand steel construction that resists forced entry.
The Tech Guys Doors and Gates installs and repairs commercial metal doors throughout Los Angeles. From standard hollow metal doors to fire-rated assemblies and bullet-resistant entrances, we handle complete door systems including frames, hardware, and closers.
Fire-rated doors are life-safety components. Building codes specify ratings based on wall construction and occupancy type. These doors must be properly labeled, and the complete assembly—door, frame, hardware—must meet rating requirements.
Common issues we address:
How long do metal doors last?
Quality hollow metal doors last 25-30+ years with proper maintenance. Frame life often exceeds door life. Coating condition significantly affects longevity—rust progresses quickly once started.
What causes metal door frames to rust?
Bottom frame contacts with wet floors are most common. Poor drainage, floor cleaning chemicals, and exterior exposure accelerate corrosion. We repair and coat frames before replacement becomes necessary.
