Anodized Finishes

Aluminum Doors Only

Anodized finishes are created through an electrochemical process that actually alters the physical properties of the aluminum, so it will never crack, chip or peal. This creates an extremely durable heat resistant finish that is highly scratch resistant and will maintain it's original luster over time. Excellent for aluminum fireplace doors.

Powder Coat Finishes

Aluminum and Steel Doors

Powder coat finishes are applied electrostatically, and are then cured buy heat. This type of finishing process is superior to high temperature paint because it forms a hard coating over the metal that is highly impervious to heat and will not rust. The process is precisely formulated and produces very consistent results with fewer imperfections. It is also the least expensive finishing process, although it has limitations and cannot replicate the more expensive artistic finishes that are hand crafted.

Premium Finishes

Steel Doors & Aluminum Doors

Premium finishes are either hand crafted or must go through multiple steps to be applied. Because these are hand applied the finishes are not as consistent and each product will have slight variations from another. If you are looking for a more consistent finish we recommend you stick with the powder coat or anodized finishes. Stainless steel is included in this group just because the cost is the same as other premium finishes.

Overlays

Steel Doors Only

Overlays are plated sheet metal that can be used to wrap around some of our doors. Whenver you see overlay as an option, these are the finishes they are avilable in.

Plated Finishes
