When You Need Insulated Metal Doors
Insulated metal doors fit exterior openings where thermal performance matters, common on medical facilities, apartment complexes, and government buildings with exterior entrances exposed to winter weather. You need them specified whenever energy performance and weather resistance are part of the project’s requirements, not just security and durability. Specifying a standard, non-insulated core on an exterior opening leads to higher energy loss than the project may have planned for.
Our Insulated Metal Doors Process
You send us the door schedule, and we specify insulated metal doors with core types matched to the thermal performance your exterior openings need. Our licensed Architectural Hardware Consultant confirms fire rating compatibility on any rated insulated opening. Delivery is coordinated nationwide by direct manufacturer shipment or our own trucks for local Troy-area orders.

Steel Krafts Frequently Asked Questions
How is the thermal performance of an insulated metal door measured?
According to the Steel Door Institute, steel door and frame assemblies are tested for thermal effectiveness under a minimum standard and test method that evaluates the full assembly, including hardware, under realistic field conditions rather than just the door panel alone. That full-assembly testing gives a more accurate thermal performance figure than testing the door face by itself.
Which core type offers the best insulating value?
Polyurethane and polystyrene cores generally offer higher insulating properties than honeycomb or steel stiffened cores, making them the better choice for exterior openings where energy performance matters. We help match core type to the thermal performance your exterior opening actually needs.
Are insulated metal doors available fire-rated?
Yes. Insulated cores are available in fire-rated configurations, and the door has to be paired with a matched frame and hardware to preserve the listing. Our licensed AHC confirms the rated insulated assembly meets the requirement for your opening before ordering.
Do insulated doors need special weatherstripping to perform as intended?
Yes, generally. An insulated core alone doesn’t fully deliver its thermal benefit without correctly specified weatherstripping and a properly sealed threshold at the opening’s perimeter. We coordinate insulated door orders with the right sealing components for exterior conditions.
