Built for Exterior Commercial Wall Applications

This exterior hollow metal door package is designed for commercial exterior openings where durability, visibility, weather resistance, and professional appearance are important. It is ideal for storefront service doors, warehouse offices, schools, churches, retail buildings, restaurant back-of-house openings, maintenance rooms, commercial offices, and exterior pedestrian entry doors.

Choose the Correct Frame Type for Your Project

This exterior hollow metal door package allows you to select the welded frame type that best matches your wall condition and construction method. Whether you are replacing an existing opening or working on new construction, Steel-Lite offers multiple welded frame configurations to help ensure proper installation and long-term performance.

• Existing Masonry Wall Opening: Welded punch and dimple frame designed for installation into existing concrete block, CMU, brick, or masonry openings. Customer supplies lag screws.
• Existing Wood or Metal Stud Wall Opening: Welded punch and dimple frame designed for installation into existing framed wall openings. Customer supplies lag screws.
• New Masonry Wall Opening Not Yet Constructed: Welded frame with mortar-in anchors designed to be installed as the masonry wall is being built.
• New Steel Stud Wall Opening: Welded frame with multi-purpose strap anchors designed for installation into new steel stud wall construction.
• New Wood Stud Wall Opening: Welded frame with multi-purpose strap anchors designed for installation into new wood stud wall construction.

Selecting the correct frame type helps ensure proper anchoring, structural support, and a professional finished opening.

24" x 64" Full Lite Glass Window

This package includes a large 24" wide x 64" tall full lite glass window with 1/4" tempered clear safety glass. The full lite design provides maximum visibility through the opening while allowing natural light to pass into the building. Compared to solid exterior steel doors, a full lite glass door creates a brighter, more open, and more welcoming commercial entrance while maintaining the durability of hollow metal construction.

• Large 24" x 64" glass viewing area
• 1/4" tempered clear safety glass included
• Maximizes visibility through the exterior opening
• Allows natural light into the building

Grade 1 Heavy Duty Commercial Door Closer Included

This Steel-Lite exterior hollow metal door package includes a Grade 1 heavy duty commercial door closer with regular arm. The closer is designed to provide reliable, controlled door closing for demanding commercial applications where durability and consistent performance are important.

The included commercial door closer helps the door close smoothly after each use while reducing wear on the door, welded frame, hinges, and locking hardware. This makes the package a strong choice for high-traffic commercial exterior openings such as offices, schools, retail buildings, warehouses, churches, healthcare facilities, and property management replacement projects.

• Regular arm configuration
• Designed for demanding commercial exterior applications
• Helps provide smooth and controlled door closing

Exterior Sealing Components Included

Because this package is designed for exterior wall applications, it includes sealing components not typically used on interior door packages. The ADA compliant saddle threshold, bottom brush door sweep, and screw-on frame gasket seal help create a more complete exterior opening by reducing drafts, light gaps, dust, and pest infiltration.

• ADA compliant 1/2" tall x 5" depth saddle threshold
• Bottom brush door sweep
• Screw-on frame gasket seal set
• Helps improve the finished exterior opening
• Helps reduce air, light, dust, drafts, and pest infiltration

Why This Package Stands Out

This is not just a hollow metal door slab. It is a complete exterior commercial door package designed around a full lite glass steel door and welded hollow metal frame. By combining the door, welded frame, 24" x 64" full lite glass window, Grade 1 heavy duty commercial door closer with regular arm, ball bearing hinges, Grade 1 commercial lever lock, ADA saddle threshold, bottom brush sweep, screw-on frame gasket, and mounting hardware into one matched package, Steel-Lite helps simplify ordering and reduce the risk of missing or incompatible parts.

For contractors, maintenance teams, and property managers, this means fewer purchase orders, fewer product compatibility questions, and a cleaner, more professional finished exterior opening.
