Doors and Hardware
At Allen J Construction, doors and hardware are not just finishing touches — they’re integral components of the building’s function, safety, and performance. Commercial door systems are far more complex than they appear, and installing them correctly requires a deep understanding of building codes, fire ratings, life safety systems, and how doors interact with other trades like electrical, security, and HVAC.
Our team specializes in the precise installation of a wide range of commercial doors, including:
Hollow Metal Doors – durable, fire-rated, and common in egress paths and stairwells
Wood Veneer Doors – typically used for offices and interior spaces where aesthetics meet function
Aluminum Storefront Systems – for exterior and lobby entrances, often tied to access control systems
Automatic Sliding or Swinging Doors – linked to occupancy sensors, fire alarms, or security systems
Each door must be properly hung, aligned, and outfitted with the correct hardware — from closers and hinges to panic bars, locks, and electronic access devices. In many cases, doors must interface with fire alarm systems for automatic closure or unlock during emergencies, or tie into power supplies, card readers, and motion sensors.
It takes years of hands-on experience to master the details: fire-rated frames, ADA compliance, door handing, strike placement, frame anchoring, and ensuring smooth operation under constant use. Mistakes aren’t just inconvenient — they can compromise life safety, trigger inspection failures, or delay occupancy permits.
At Allen J Construction, we’ve installed thousands of door and hardware systems in new construction, fit-outs, and renovations. We coordinate closely with other trades to ensure every system works as designed. If you need doors that open when and how they should — and keep people safe when it matters most — trust the team that understands the complexity behind every swing, slide, or close.
