FAQs:
What are the key benefits of hollow metal doors and frames in commercial construction?
Hollow metal doors provide superior impact resistance, fire protection, and structural longevity. They are tested to withstand harsh conditions and meet NFPA, IBC, and ASTM E152 standards for commercial occupancy types. Their steel construction resists warping, cracking, and abuse—making them ideal for critical, high-traffic areas.
Why are commercial hollow metal doors commonly chosen for high-traffic areas?
Commercial hollow metal doors consist of reinforced core and frame systems to ensure security against forced entry, wear, and environmental stress. They are compatible with panic hardware, electrified locks, and access control devices, offering superior safety and function at main entry and egress points.
What should I look for in a hollow metal door supplier?
A trusted supplier should provide doors labeled and tested to applicable standards in UL 10C, UL 1784 (smoke), NFPA 80, ANSI A250.8, and SDI 129 (blast resistance). At TCH, all assemblies are certified to applicable code and usage standards, ensuring reliable performance and code compliance across occupancy types.
Can TCH provide custom commercial door frames for my project?
Yes. We design and manufacture custom commercial door frames with precise hinge locations, anchors, and face dimensions to fit unique wall conditions and hardware sets. Whether for retrofit, oversized, or multi-lite configurations, our engineering team ensures a seamless and compliant installation.
What fire ratings and finishes are available for hollow metal doors?
TCH offers hollow metal doors and frames fire-rated up to 180 minutes, certified under UL 10B/10C, NFPA 252, and CAN/ULC S104 for both positive and neutral pressure environments. Assemblies include required labeling, fire-rated vision kits, intumescent seals, and compliant hardware preparations.
What hardware is compatible with hollow metal doors and frames?
Our doors are compatible with a wide range of mechanical and electronic hardware, including ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 locks, closers, hinges, and exit devices. We also support electrified preps for maglocks, REX sensors, access control modules, and fire exit hardware per NFPA 101.
What specialized solutions does TCH offer for high-security or government use?
We provide SCIF-compliant door assemblies that meet ICD/ICS 705 standards for secure facilities, as well as blast-resistant doors meeting GSA/DoD UFC 4-010-01 and ASTM F2247 standards. These specialized products support mission-critical operations and are fully documented for submittals.
