A hollow metal door is a commercial steel door engineered for strength, stability, and compatibility with commercial-grade hardware (locks, panic hardware, door closers, access control, and more). Compared to typical residential steel doors, commercial hollow metal doors are built to handle higher traffic, tighter tolerances, and code-driven requirements.
Hollow metal doors are available in multiple configurations depending on visibility, ventilation, fire rating, and whether the opening is a single door or a pair. Use the links below to explore common hollow metal door styles, or build a custom configuration using our quote tool.

Use these quick paths to find the right door package based on performance needs, job conditions, and how you want to spec the opening.
Frames matter as much as the door slab. Choose the frame style based on wall condition (new construction vs retrofit), wall type, and how the frame will anchor to the opening.
Replacing a steel door slab without replacing the frame can save time and labor when the frame is still serviceable. If you are retrofitting an existing opening, start here:

If you maintain doors across multiple facilities, it is common to need parts by manufacturer. We carry a full line of competitor brand hollow metal door parts, including:
Core construction, steel type, and gauge selection affect insulation, acoustics, durability, and service life. Below are performance-driven options commonly specified for commercial openings.
Polystyrene cores provide energy-saving insulation and additional door structure for a long and cost-effective service life.
Galvannealed material is manufactured by applying a zinc coating (galvanizing) and then immediately annealing the sheet steel. The two-step process results in a fine greyish matte finish that is rust-resistant and excellent for painting. Galvannealed material does not flake off its coating when formed, stamped, and bent, making it an excellent choice for exterior applications.
Galvannealed (A-60) material used on doors and frames conforms to industry standard ASTM A-263.
Select from 14 gauge through 18 gauge based on security, durability, and project requirements.
Fire-rated openings are code-driven. If your opening is part of an egress route or rated corridor, door and hardware requirements must be correct for inspection. Start with these fire door resources:
Tip: If you are unsure what rating or prep you need, call 866-232-5673 or text 210-275-8966 with photos and opening details.

Often yes, but it depends on frame condition, alignment, hinge/strike prep, and whether the opening is fire-rated. If you text photos, we can help confirm what you need.
Choose gauge based on durability and abuse level. Lower gauge numbers mean thicker steel and higher strength. For high-traffic and abuse-prone openings, heavier gauge is typically preferred.
Yes - material selection and prep matter. Galvannealed (A-60) steel is commonly chosen for exterior environments because it is corrosion resistant and paint-ready.
Yes. Hollow metal doors are commonly used with electrified hardware, panic bars, and access control. The key is ordering or prepping the door correctly for the hardware.
