What commercial doors are, how hollow metal doors are built, and how Elev8 supplies and fabricates them to code.
Commercial doors are heavy-duty doors built for commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings, engineered to meet strict fire, safety, and accessibility codes. Common types include hollow metal doors, steel doors, aluminum-framed glass doors, fire-rated doors, and storefront entry doors — the right type depends on the opening's traffic level, fire rating, and hardware requirements.
Elev8 supplies commercial doors from trusted manufacturers and custom-fabricates doors, frames, and hardware to project specifications, including sizing, fire ratings, and hardware prep. Request a quote for your commercial door project.
Hollow metal doors are commercial-grade doors built with steel face sheets and internal reinforcement, giving them the strength and fire resistance required for high-traffic and code-driven openings.
