Why are you using Commercial Doors in LUXURY HOMES??
Why are you using commercial doors in luxury homes?? Cheap? Can’t do the size? Didn’t realize it has exposed screws and bad weather seals? DETAILS MATTER. Do you even know the specifics of the products your window dealer is bidding?
A lot of engineering goes into luxury window and door systems, and it shows in the details. That’s also where the cost comes in—more complex extrusions, tighter tolerances, and better fit and finish.
Product approvals will reveal everything, including whether the screw heads are visible and what level of weather performance the system provides. “Luxury” lives in those small details.
I often compare doors to cars—they may look similar at first glance, but when you open and close a high-end door, you can feel the difference. That’s precision engineering.
Another big distinction? Weather performance. Residential doors—especially those tested for hurricane zones or cold climates—have to meet tighter air and water infiltration standards. Commercial doors? Not so much.
There are only a few hurricane-rated commercial doors approved up to 4' x 12'. Don’t cheap out. These are the doors your clients use every single day.
