St.Catharines Commercial Steel Door Repair
The corrosion of a steel door-frame results in a number of undesirable conditions. It provides a path for rodents, it allows contaminants and debris into the facility, it is a path for energy loss and, in the worst-case scenario, and it can lead to a structural weakening of the door system. In the most severe cases, complete removal of the existing frame & door and installation of a new frame & door becomes necessary.
Replacement of a frame and door is expensive. Typically requiring an experienced door technician, a full day to complete this repair (assuming no complications from the removal and install). The majority of the cost is the labour required to remove the frame, yet in many instances only the rusted portion of the frame actually requires repair.
Moisture in contact with the frame or jambs eventually causes rusting of the jambs, most often starting and first seen in the lower ends of the jambs. Most people think the corrosion is the frame rusting from the outside towards the inside. In fact, exactly the opposite is true; the steel jambs are corroding from the inside to the outside. This is easier to understand by recognizing that frames and man doors are usually painted on the outside and therefore well protected from corrosion. It is the back side of the jambs where the concern lies.
The most frequent incidences of rusted man doors and jambs are where these systems are used in the exterior openings of buildings. The reasons these systems degrade more quickly than the interior systems are not only are they more directly exposed to outside weather conditions but the method of installation adds an additional variable.
