Your home becomes more secure the day we finish. Steel doors don’t just look impressive—they create a real barrier that makes break-ins significantly harder.
You’ll notice the difference in your energy bills too. Properly installed steel doors seal better than most wood doors, keeping your heating and cooling costs down year-round.
The curb appeal boost is immediate and lasting. While your neighbors deal with rotting wood frames and peeling paint, your steel door maintains its appearance through New Jersey’s harsh winters and humid summers without the constant maintenance headaches.
We’ve built our reputation in New Jersey by focusing on what actually matters: quality materials, skilled installation, and treating your project like it’s our own home.
We’re not the cheapest option in Middletown, and that’s intentional. You’re investing in doors that won’t warp, rust, or fail when you need them most. Our steel doors are designed specifically for New Jersey’s climate challenges.
Every project gets a dedicated manager who coordinates everything from initial measurements to final walkthrough. No subcontractors, no surprises, no wondering who’s responsible when you have questions.
We start with precise measurements at your home. Our team assesses your existing frame, discusses your security needs, and shows you design options that work with your home’s architecture.
Next, we fabricate or prepare your steel door in our facility. Custom orders typically take 2-3 weeks, while our pre-designed options are usually ready within a week.
Installation day is straightforward. Our crew removes your old door, prepares the opening if needed, and installs your new steel door with proper weatherproofing and hardware. Most installations complete in 4-6 hours, leaving you with a fully functional, secure entrance.

Every steel door installation includes professional removal of your existing door, proper frame preparation, and complete weatherproofing. We handle all hardware installation, including high-security locks and hinges designed for steel door weight.
In Middletown’s coastal climate, moisture protection is critical. We apply marine-grade sealants and use corrosion-resistant hardware that won’t fail after a few seasons of salt air and humidity.
You’ll receive care instructions and a warranty that covers both materials and installation. Our steel doors are powder-coated for maximum weather resistance, and we back that with real protection for your investment.
Quality steel doors typically last 20-30 years in New Jersey’s climate when properly installed and maintained. The key is using powder-coated steel with marine-grade hardware that resists corrosion from salt air and humidity.
Our steel doors are specifically treated for coastal conditions. The powder coating creates a barrier that prevents rust, while proper installation ensures water can’t penetrate the frame area.
You’ll need minimal maintenance—just occasional cleaning and checking weatherstripping every few years. Compare that to wood doors that need repainting every 3-5 years and often require frame repairs from rot and warping.
Most existing frames can accommodate steel door installation, but we always inspect first to ensure structural integrity. Steel doors are heavier than wood, so the frame needs to be solid and properly anchored.
If your current frame is in good condition and the right size, we can often work with it. However, frames that are warped, rotted, or improperly sized will need modification or replacement for a secure fit.
During our initial visit, we’ll measure everything and let you know exactly what’s needed. We handle any necessary frame work as part of the installation, so you don’t need to coordinate with multiple contractors.
Our steel doors include reinforced strike plates, heavy-duty hinges rated for steel door weight, and multi-point locking systems on most models. The door itself is constructed from 16-gauge steel with internal reinforcement.
We install high-security deadbolts with hardened steel bolts that extend deep into the frame. The strike plates are secured with 3-inch screws that anchor into the wall studs, not just the door frame.
Many of our doors also feature impact-resistant glass if you choose glass panels. This isn’t standard window glass—it’s designed to resist forced entry while still allowing natural light into your entryway.
Steel door installation typically ranges from $1,500 to $4,000 depending on the door style, size, and any frame modifications needed. Custom designs and specialty hardware increase the investment.
The price includes the door, all hardware, professional installation, and weatherproofing. If frame work is needed, we’ll provide a detailed estimate before starting any work.
Consider this against the cost of replacing wood doors every 10-15 years, plus ongoing maintenance. Steel doors cost more upfront but save money long-term through durability and energy efficiency.
Yes, properly installed steel doors significantly improve energy efficiency compared to older wood doors. Steel doors can be insulated and create better seals against air infiltration.
Our steel doors feature thermal breaks and quality weatherstripping that maintains its seal over time. This prevents the air leaks that drive up heating and cooling costs, especially during New Jersey’s temperature extremes.
Many homeowners see noticeable reductions in their energy bills after installation. The improved insulation also makes your entryway more comfortable—no more cold drafts in winter or hot air infiltration in summer.
Most steel door installations complete in 4-6 hours once we arrive at your home. This includes removing your old door, any necessary frame preparation, installing the new door, and complete cleanup.
Complex installations requiring significant frame modification might take a full day. We’ll give you an accurate time estimate after our initial assessment of your specific situation.
We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Your home remains secure throughout the process—we never leave you with an open doorway during breaks or overnight.
