Built for Montreal’s climate
Two things work against a steel door here, and the coating matters as much as the thermal break. Without a proper thermal break, a steel frame conducts cold straight through and can frost or sweat on the interior face on the coldest nights. But a street-facing entry in the Plateau or Mile End also spends a whole winter in range of plow spray and tracked-in de-icing salt, and a standard powder coat pits and dulls under that faster than the cold itself ever damages the finish. A salt-resistant coating is the second spec, not an afterthought, alongside the thermal break. Where a client wants the same black-frame sightline against a greystone or converted loft entry with neither concern to manage, we spec aluminum instead, same look, different metal.

Why it suits Montreal
For a Plateau or Mile End entry, the salt-resistant coating or the aluminum swap costs the same as a dealer's standard coat once the order ships factory-direct. That custom order moves on a short local leg too, the Port of Montreal sits right on the St. Lawrence Seaway inside the metro itself.
