our metals

Metal is a great material and architectural feature for garage doors. Not only are metals durable and designed to withstand the elements, they add a striking focal point to contemporary homes. The minimalist design of metal enhances modern styles, and when combined with wood, extends a sublime warmth and extra dimension to your home.

Copper left untreated

Copper Left Untreated

Untreated copper is chosen by designers who wish to take advantage of the green patina that the metal will develop with time. This produces an effect that is not only beautiful, but will protect the metal from corrosion as well.

galvanized steel

Galvanized Steel

While architects and designers will sometimes use steel in order to take advantage of how it will oxidize and discolor, sometimes a rugged and yet unaging look is called for. Galvanized steel is coated with zinc oxide, making it almost impervious to rusting, producing a surface that will scarcely change with the passage of time.

Copper

Copper

Copper is a wonderfully versatile material which designers and architects treasure for the variety of effects it can be used to produce—anything from an antique oxidized green that connotes the passage of time, to the shiny golden brown of new metal, to an unobtrusive, humble matte brown.

clear anodized aluminum

Clear Anodized Aluminum

Anodized aluminum is known for its imperviousness to even the most challenging conditions, even outer space, and its universal appeal. It will never chip, never peel, and its vivid metallic sheen makes it a beautiful addition to any design.

dark bronze anodized aluminum

It is an excellent insulator and does not fade or become discolored over time. It is also rustproof, stain resistant, and will maintain its shine and warmth for the life of your home.

Brass metal

Brass

mirror polished stainless steel

Mirror-Polished Stainless Steel

You would have to watch the way light plays with this bold design throughout the day to appreciate the full spectrum of its drama. This is a door like no other. If you want an ever-changing display of color and light, you’ve found it here.

Cold rolled steel

Cold Rolled Steel

When absolute precision is called for, cold rolled steel is the solution. Cold rolled steel is pressed and shaped at room temperature in order to produce desired designs at the tightest of tolerances. The result is a material that is silky smooth to the touch and which can be polished to a shine.

hot rolled steel

Hot Rolled Steel

Hot rolled steel has a unique scaled appearance due to a manufacturing process in which it is pressed while being heated to over 1,700 degrees Fahrenheit. Prized for its strength and the ease with which it can be shaped, hot rolled steel can be brushed, finished, or painted to produce whatever appearance a designer desires.

Corten steel

Corten Steel

Corteen steel is a popular material choice for designers seeking to take advantage of its unique weathering properties. Corten quickly takes on an antiqued appearance, which makes it ideal for creating a door that has all the signs of having stood the test of time.
