Is your commercial building fitted with the right doors or grilles? Doors create the first impression people have of your establishment. They are one of the most important parts of any building. Closures need to be strong enough to offer protection while also maintaining aesthetic appeal.

When choosing the right fit for your commercial building, consider these options.

What to consider when selecting the best door or grille for your commercial building:

1. Types of Doors & Grilles

Are you looking for a durable, fast-acting enclosure? Our high performance products offer high-cycle operation with minimal ongoing maintenance.

Do you need to control the temperature inside your commercial garage? Our insulated doors have many advantages like lower energy cost, noise reduction, add an extra layer of durability and have a longer component life.

Our fire rated products provide the highest level of life safety and fire protection available with the lowest cost of ownership in a modern, easily integrated package.

Need a side folding or overhead coiling grille? Our security grilles don’t compromise security or ventilation.

Rolling steel doors are installations engineered for heavy-duty applications. From delivery docks to parking garages, these doors are ideal for business owners who prioritize reliability and performance to encourage efficiency.

2. Establishment Type

Your establishment can determine what type of door or grille you’ll need. Parking garages require a high cycle grille that has the ability to keep traffic moving swiftly while restaurants and bars prefer a grille with a more aesthetically pleasing look.
No matter your needs, we can assist with a robust product portfolio. Whether you’re taking care of one individual building or many businesses in a shopping center, we’ve got your loading docks, retail, schools, healthcare facilities and more covered with our rolling security closures.

3. Safety & Security

Security is an important issue for any commercial building. You need a door that offers protection from environmental attacks as well as human-made attacks. Our Defender Series does just that.

4. Aesthetic Appeal

Your commercial closures impact the impression people have of your business. Aside from choosing functional doors and grilles, you should consider the aesthetics as well. Our SteelWeave™ Metal Mesh Grille provides protection against theft and intrusion while adding to your building’s look. With three design styles to choose from, there is always a way to match your business and preferences.

Which material and finish should you choose?

Our materials and finishes are sure to compliment your design. Not every product has every finish available. Please refer to our product pages or contact our Architectural Design Team to help you choose the perfect door for your application.

• Galvanized Steel
  • Galvanized steel has the strength and formability of steel plus the corrosion protection of the zinc-iron coating. It is one of the most popular materials on hoods and curtains and it’s very cost effective.
• Stainless Steel
  • Stainless steel is most often used for curtains, bottom bars, guides and hoods. It’s highly corrosion resistant and is a thicker gauge material making this heavier door more secure.
• Aluminum
  • Aluminum creates a lighter curtain, which can lead to smaller barrel and less headroom requirements. Aluminum doors and grilles are often easier to operate with a push-up or manual operator.
• RAL Powder Coat

  Choose from a palette of more than 180 standard RAL colors to incorporate your rolling doors seamlessly into your design with a SpectraShield® factory applied polyester powder coat finish.

• AtmoShield®
  • Combat the environment’s harsh wear and tear with the AtmoShield® textured powder coat. AtmoShield’s rugged durability withstands fading, cracking, blistering, flaking and peeling.
• SpectraShield® Ultra™/Galvanex® Ultra™

1. • Upgrade your SpectraShield® and Galvanex® finish with a factory applied protective top coat to keep your finish looking like it did the day it was installed. This polyester-based, textured, wear-resistant clear top coat provides improved durability against deterioration and/or marring of the curtain during regular use as well as providing an increased protection to the curtain in corrosive environment.

• Vinyl Graphics
  
  • Need to replicate any logo, design or photo with impeccable detail? Vinyl graphics is the perfect solution! Vinyl Graphics produce a vibrant, full-color design on doors up to 18' wide*
    *May be available in larger sizes, please contact CornellCookson for more details.
