Built for Seattle’s climate
A steel door frame in Seattle faces sustained dampness rather than intense heat or salt spray, but the corrosion risk sits in the same category coastal climates deal with, persistent moisture finding any gap in the coating. Marine-grade powder coat handles it, but it is still a coated ferrous frame and benefits from occasional inspection. An aluminum frame in the same profile skips that maintenance question at a small tradeoff in mullion thickness. Structural changes to an opening are subject to your municipality's permit review, confirm before demo starts.

Why it suits Seattle
The appeal of this door style is the thin black line around the glass, and in a low-light climate that thin frame is also doing real work letting daylight through. Sourcing it factory-direct means a choice between marine-grade steel for the truest sightline or aluminum for zero maintenance, sized to the actual opening rather than a stock width.
