Man doors, also called pedestrian doors, are commercial doors made of heavy-duty metal to provide a high level of security. At Creative Door Services^TM, we supply our commercial customers with a wide array of man doors suitable for various industries. Here are five reasons your business needs man doors.

1.) They’re vandal resistant

If vandalism is a concern in your area, installing man doors can prevent unauthorized access to your building. The thick steel of the door and frame prevents intruders from tampering or kicking it in. We also provide push, pull and kick plates to increase the life span of your door. Furthermore, they can be outfitted with access-controlled locks such as mortise locksets, electrified panic hardware, and maglocks for added protection.

2.) They can withstand extreme temperatures

Man doors provide superior insulation and often feature polyurethane or foam inserts. This allows them to resist challenging weather conditions like extreme temperatures, rain, snow, and wind. They can also be outfitted with weatherstrip, sweeps, and automatic door bottoms to keep dust, debris, and pests out of your facility.

3.) They can be fire-rated

Metal man doors are strong, durable, and can meet high-traffic demands, making them most suitable for industrial applications. They can also be fire-rated to protect your business in case of fire. In fact, many man doors come with a three-hour fire rating. In addition, they are available in blast- and bullet-resistant versions.

4.) They’re soundproof

If you want to keep noise levels down in your business or facility, man doors play an integral role in controlling the movement of sound. For example, many of our metal man doors are filled with a specialized acoustic core and provide a high sound transmission class (STC) rating.

5.) They’re affordable

Steel man doors are inexpensive and require little to no maintenance. They’re also often made of rustproof materials that resist cracking, bowing, warping, shrinking, and swelling. In addition, since they have very few moving parts, man doors are easy and cost-effective to repair if they happen to get damaged.

You can also equip your man door with an automatic swing or slide system for added convenience. Since they provide hands-free functionality, an automatic man door can help streamline your everyday operations.

Your pedestrian doors must operate as intended and provide the right level of protection. If you need help choosing one for your business, the team at Creative Door Services™ can help. Our team can provide expert advice on which door materials, types, and features will work best for your facility.

Professional Man Door Installation

Since man doors tend to be key access points, there’s no room for installation errors. In fact, an improper installation can lead to premature wear and tear. It can also cause the door to malfunction or fail altogether. On top of all that, having your door system installed by a professional will ensure it remains under warranty and can be promptly serviced or repaired when needed.

If you need a new man door installed at your commercial or industrial property, leave it up to the expert technicians at Creative Door Services^TM. We have the tools and training to ensure your new door complies with all building codes and safety regulations.
