Interior black-framed metal and glass door

Steel Doors · Vancouver, British Columbia

Steel Doors in Vancouver.

Black-framed steel and glass doors for Vancouver entries and interior openings, built with marine-grade coating or an aluminum alternative depending on how much upkeep fits the project.

In short

The black steel-framed glass entry has become close to a signature of the West Coast modern look going up across Vancouver infill and laneway projects, and a slim frame profile is doing double duty pulling in daylight during a season this gray, provided the finish can survive the dampness that comes with it.

Built for Vancouver’s climate

A steel door frame here faces sustained dampness rather than intense heat, but the corrosion mechanism sits in the same category coastal climates deal with everywhere, persistent moisture finding any gap in the coating over enough wet seasons. 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 go through your municipality's permit review, confirm before demo starts on any Shaughnessy or Point Grey heritage-adjacent property.

Why it suits Vancouver

The appeal of this door style is the thin black line around the glass, and on a gray coastal day that thin frame is also pulling more usable daylight through the opening. Sourcing it factory-direct means a real choice between marine-grade steel for the truest sightline or aluminum for zero maintenance, sized to the actual opening in a new infill build or a heritage-adjacent renovation rather than a stock width. Submit the opening through /brief.

Common questions

Steel gets the truest sightline but needs occasional coating inspection. Aluminum needs none of that at a small tradeoff in frame thickness. Both are built to your opening.
Marine-grade powder coat is rated for sustained moisture exposure, but it is still a coating on steel and benefits from periodic inspection over the years.
Yes, doors are built to the actual opening rather than a stock size. Submit dimensions through /brief.
