Interior black-framed metal and glass door

Steel Doors · Atlanta, Georgia

Steel Doors in Atlanta.

An intown Atlanta gut renovation usually wants one specific thing out of a steel-framed opening: the thin black line around the glass that a big-box aluminum substitute cannot actually deliver.

In short

The black-framed steel-and-glass look that's everywhere in Atlanta renovations right now comes with a real maintenance question: steel rusts in this humidity unless the coating holds, and it will eventually need attention. Aluminum gets the same look with none of the upkeep.

Built for Atlanta’s climate

Atlanta's humidity and heavy rain are hard on any exposed metal frame, and true steel needs a powder coat or equivalent finish holding up perfectly at every seam to keep rust from starting, especially at cut edges and hardware points. That's manageable, but it's an ongoing maintenance item, not a one-time install. An aluminum frame in the same black finish gets the identical Crittall-style sightline without the corrosion risk, since aluminum simply doesn't rust the way steel does. Which material makes sense depends on how much upkeep you want to sign up for versus how important true steel's weight and feel is to the design.

Why it suits Atlanta

Cutting the dealer out of the chain is what actually widens the spec here: the margin a local shop would have kept goes into the coating instead, real marine-grade steel where Atlanta's humidity calls for it, or aluminum where zero upkeep matters more than the metal. None of that costs extra time either, freight rides one of the most efficient port-to-metro rail pairings in the country, straight up from the Port of Savannah.

How it ships to Atlanta: Freight lands at the Port of Savannah and moves up the Savannah-to-Atlanta intermodal corridor, one of the most efficient port-to-metro rail pairings in the country.

Common questions

Steel needs its coating inspected and touched up periodically to prevent rust, particularly in a humid climate like Atlanta's. Aluminum needs essentially none of that. Neither is wrong, it depends on your tolerance for upkeep.
Yes, most orders are custom to the exact rough opening. Send dimensions through /brief for a quote.
Often, since it usually changes a load-bearing or exterior opening. Confirm with your county or city building department before demo, and we'll build to whatever opening size that review allows.
