Hollow-Metal Doors & Frames: Installation and Repair

Steel openings need more than a correctly sized door. Frame alignment, hardware preparations, clearances and wall conditions all affect the finished result. Secure Doors works on hollow-metal commercial doors and frames, including field modifications and repair scopes.

Where a specialized door technician can help

Frame damage around hardware

Strike areas, reinforcement and worn or altered preparations can prevent secure latching. We assess the surrounding frame before recommending a fix.

Frame extensions and skins

Some wall or opening conditions require an extension or field skin. Fit, attachment method and final profile must be planned around the existing frame.

Frame sections

Localized frame work can be an option when the rest of the opening is serviceable, subject to damage, assembly requirements and the work scope.

Door cutting and fitting

Undercuts, top cuts, vision panels, louvers and swing modifications require careful assessment, especially for labelled or fire-rated assemblies.

How the scope is reviewed

Send the opening dimensions, wall type, hand or swing information, existing hardware and any drawings. We can help define installation, fit-up, modification or repair work and identify questions that must be resolved before metal is cut.

Commercial applications

Tenant improvements, new commercial construction, warehouse openings, multi-family deficiencies and existing building maintenance.

Frequently asked questions

Can a damaged hollow-metal frame be repaired instead of replaced?

Sometimes. The decision depends on where the damage is, frame condition, hardware needs and any fire-rating or other code requirements.

Do you handle door and hardware fit-up together?

Yes. Commercial door, frame and hardware coordination is a central part of the service.

Commercial and industrial work in Vancouver, Surrey and throughout the Lower Mainland. Availability and the appropriate repair method depend on the actual opening and project details.
