Deciding Which Commercial Steel Door Is Right For You

September 10, 2020 | Commercial Doors

When you begin to search for the right commercial steel door for your property or business, it can be a little overwhelming. There are tons of options and some questions you need to think through to choose the best option for your building. 

Here are some things to keep in mind when deciding which metal door is right for you and your business. 

  • What’s the metal door’s purpose?

This is the first thing you should think about when deciding on which metal door you will need for your project. Will your door be client facing? If so, how it looks might be one of the more important factors to showcase your business. Is the door primarily going to be used by staff? That might mean functionality is more important than aesthetics. 

  • How secure do you need your metal door?

No matter your project, figuring out the level of security required for your door is necessary. Are you in an area that would require a higher level of security? Or possibly your business needs simply require a higher degree of security? Either way, steel metal doors are some of the most secure out there so most options available should work for a high-security project. 

  • Are aesthetics important? 

Depending on the purpose, aesthetics of your steel door may be important. Steel doors aren’t always the most attractive looking doors–they are focused on security and functionality. However, some steel and glass combination doors are perfect for client or customer-facing situations 

  • What’s your budget? 

Perhaps the most important consideration is your budget. The above factors all play into the overall cost of your commercial steel door. Prior to meeting with one of our highly-trained technicians, it’s best to decide how much you have to invest in your commercial door. Keep in mind that the more secure or aesthetically pleasing doors are most likely going to require more of an investment.

Excellent

Shane M.
Awesome company, they're very friendly and professional.
Kurt S.
As a business owner, I understand that despite our best intentions, things don't always go the way you might want them to. As a consumer, I realize that it is times like this that a company shows it's true colors.
My first interaction with Vortex left me feeling less than pleased with the outcome, and I told them as much when they emailed a satisfaction survey. I never really expected they would follow up.
But, follow up they did.
I got a phone call from Steve Wickens, asking if he could stop by my office and talk about my experience; the next day he was sitting in front of me, asking how to make it right.
We talked it over and in the end, Steve made it right.
I'm sure there was no profit left in the job for them, and considering I only have a small building with one door, I'm not likely to need them again anytime soon. Steve's only possible motivation was personal and professional integrity; traits that are pretty rare these days.
Thank you Steve, thank you Vortex, you have earned my respect, and you have earned this 5 star review. I would happily use your services again and recommend you to anyone.
