Ideal Applications

## Perfect For

High-traffic entryways requiring durability

Canadian weather with harsh winters and hot summers

Homeowners prioritizing security and low maintenance

Performance & ENERGY STAR

## Energy Efficiency Metrics

### Key Metrics

U-factor measures heat loss (lower is better). ER (Energy Rating) provides overall efficiency score. SHGC and VT ratings apply to glass inserts for solar heat gain and visible light transmission.

### ENERGY STAR Certification

Door systems can be specified to meet ENERGY STAR Canada requirements where applicable. Ratings vary by glass inserts, size, and configuration-verify on your quote and product label.

Construction & Options

Customize every aspect of your steel entry door with our comprehensive selection of materials, finishes, and hardware options.

### Door Slab

Steel skins over insulated core-specifications vary by manufacturer

### Frames

Composite, wood, or steel with jamb depths to match wall construction

### Sills & Thresholds

High-performance options for superior air and water control

### Weatherstripping

Advanced seals to reduce drafts and improve efficiency

### Glass Inserts

Clear, decorative, or privacy glass with double/triple IGU, Low-E, and argon

### Hardware Options

Handlesets, deadbolts, and smart lock compatibility in various finishes

### Finishes

Factory-painted colors with custom paint options available

[

### Sidelites & Transoms

Multiple lite patterns and sizes for added light and style





](https://auroradirect.ca/products/doors/sidelites-and-transoms)

### Multipoint Locks - Important Requirement

Key benefits include:

-   **Enhanced Security:** Multiple locking points resist forced entry better than a single deadbolt
-   **Better Seal Compression:** Creates a tighter seal against drafts and Canadian weather
-   **Structural Support:** Distributes stress evenly across the door frame

**⚠️ Required for 7' and 8' Door Heights:** Multipoint locks are mandatory for taller doors to prevent warping due to increased surface area and stress on taller slabs. This ensures long-term performance and maintains the door's structural integrity.

Sizes & Configurations

## Flexible Design Options

### Door Configurations

Single door entry, double door entry, with one or two sidelites, transoms (flat or arched)

### Swing & Accessibility

Outswing or inswing options-choose based on your space and preferences. Low-profile sills available for accessibility and easier transitions.

Care & Maintenance

## Keep Your Door Looking Great

Simple maintenance steps to ensure long-lasting performance and beauty.

### Regular Cleaning

Clean door surfaces with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and a soft cloth.

**Avoid:** Harsh solvents, abrasive scrubbers, or ammonia-based cleaners that can damage the finish.

### Inspect Weatherstripping

Check weatherstripping quarterly for wear, gaps, or damage. Replace if compressed or torn.

**Frequency:** Every 3 months, or seasonally before winter and summer.

### Check Hinges & Hardware

Inspect hinges for loose screws and proper alignment. Tighten as needed.

**Tip:** A properly aligned door should close smoothly without dragging or gaps.

### Lubricate Moving Parts

Apply silicone-based lubricant to hinges, locks, and multipoint mechanisms annually.

**Products:** Use silicone spray or graphite powder-avoid oil-based lubricants that attract dirt.

### Touch-Up Paint

Inspect painted surfaces for chips or scratches. Touch up promptly to prevent rust.

**When:** Address chips immediately, especially before winter. Follow manufacturer's paint guidelines.

### Seasonal Checklist

Perform a comprehensive inspection twice yearly-before winter and summer.

**Include:** All weatherstripping, locks, hinges, paint condition, and glass seals.

#### Pro Tip: Create a Maintenance Schedule

Set calendar reminders for seasonal maintenance tasks. Regular care prevents costly repairs and extends your door's lifespan. Keep a log of maintenance activities and any issues you notice-this helps track patterns and ensures warranty compliance.

Common Questions

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Are steel doors better than fiberglass?

Steel doors offer superior dent resistance and a rigid feel at a lower price point. Fiberglass provides better insulation and won't rust, with a wood-like appearance.

### Will a steel door rust?

Modern steel doors have protective coatings and paint finishes that prevent rust. Proper maintenance and touch-ups as needed will ensure long-lasting performance.

### Can I install a smart lock on a steel door?

Yes! Most steel doors are compatible with smart locks. We can help you select hardware that works with your preferred smart home system.

### Do multipoint locks really help?

Yes. They improve seal compression and security when properly installed. Multiple locking points (top, middle, bottom) resist forced entry better than a single deadbolt and create a tighter seal against drafts and weather. Note: Multipoint locks are required for 7' and 8' tall doors to prevent warping due to the increased surface area and stress on taller slabs.

### How energy efficient are steel doors?

Steel doors with foam-insulated cores provide excellent energy efficiency. When properly installed with quality weatherstripping, they can meet ENERGY STAR requirements.
