What hollow metal doors are, and when to specify one
A hollow metal door is a steel skin over a core in a welded or knock-down steel frame. It is the default choice wherever an opening has to survive traffic, weather, forced entry or a fire code requirement — back-of-house, mechanical rooms, stairwells, loading areas and exterior service doors.
The core is chosen by the opening, not by the door
Every hollow metal door looks alike from six feet away. What separates a leaf that lasts twenty years in a plant in Stoney Creek from one replaced in five is what fills the cavity between the faces.
Finishes, and what winter in Stoney Creek does to the wrong one
Finish is the specification most often left to whoever places the order, and it decides how long the door lasts. Four answers, not interchangeable.
Frames — welded or knock-down, and the wall decides
The frame is half the assembly and most of the failures, and which one you buy is usually settled by when the wall gets built.
Supplying hollow metal doors in Stoney Creek — the price and the date

Hollow metal doors for the work Stoney Creek buildings do
The sectors that dominate Stoney Creek — advanced manufacturing, logistics and distribution, food and beverage processing — each wear a steel door out in a different place.
Advanced manufacturing
A plant is where a steel door earns its gauge: 16-gauge or steel-stiffened leaves on the routes carts and forklifts take, and frames grouted solid into block so a knock moves the wall instead of the jamb. Dents in steel stay, so the specification is written to make them rarer, not to hide them.
Logistics and distribution
The steel here is the man door beside the bay and the door onto the yard rather than the overhead itself: 16-gauge galvannealed leaves in welded frames, because both sides of them are outdoors. What ends them is the bottom twelve inches, where salt tracked off a loading pad sits all winter.
Food and beverage processing
Paint does not survive a sanitation schedule, so these openings go stainless — leaf, frame and hardware, seams welded and ground rather than lapped. The frame is the part that gets forgotten and the part standing in the water: a stainless door in a painted frame rusts at the floor inside a year.
Commercial retail
The glass is at the front and the steel is at the back — the stock-room door, the door onto the service corridor, the rear exit to the lane. The rear one is the one that gets pried, so it wants a welded frame with no gap to lever against and a leaf that does not flex when someone leans on it.
Offices & business parks
Every floor holds more steel than anyone counts: mechanical and electrical rooms, janitor closets, the service corridor behind the elevator lobby. After a fit-out the work is matching them — one paint colour and one frame profile across a floor that has been renovated three times in twenty years.
Healthcare & clinics
Doors on a ward route are hit by beds and carts all day, so the leaf takes a heavier gauge, a full-height kick plate and a continuous hinge instead of three butts. Soiled utility and sterilising rooms are washed down, which puts stainless on the list for a handful of openings rather than for the whole floor.

Common questions about hollow metal & steel doors
What is the rough opening for a double steel door?
For a hollow metal frame with a standard two-inch face, the masonry opening is the nominal pair width plus four inches and the nominal height plus two inches — two inches of frame face at each jamb, one at the head. A 6'0" by 7'0" pair therefore needs roughly a 6'4" by 7'2" masonry opening. Crews working to a field-shimmed tolerance add about another half inch of width and a quarter inch of height so the frame can be plumbed rather than forced into place. The arithmetic uses the pair width, not the width of one leaf, and it should be confirmed against the frame schedule before the wall is built.
What is a standard exterior commercial door size?
A 3'0" by 7'0" single leaf is the commercial standard, and most rear, service and stairwell doors in Ontario are that size. Widths run from 2'0" to 4'0" in two-inch increments and heights are usually 6'8", 7'0" or 8'0", with 4'0" by 8'0" the largest standard single leaf before the door, its hinges and its frame all become custom. Standard pairs are built from two standard leaves — 6'0" by 7'0", from a pair of 3'0" doors, is the common double door. Staying on that grid is the difference between a door that ships in days and one that joins the four-to-six-week production queue.
How long does a steel door take to arrive?
Typically 4–6 weeks to produce a door and frame once the shop drawings are approved, then 1–2 weeks to schedule the job and install it, depending on the size of the project. Stock-size doors in a common gauge and prep can be much faster; rated assemblies, custom sizes, galvannealed and stainless leaves and anything with unusual hardware prep set the schedule. Once it arrives, one door and frame is usually a day's work on site, while a full door schedule on a construction project runs for several weeks.
