This is the pedestrian door connecting your conditioned living space directly to an attached garage. Because garages are often sources of carbon monoxide, fumes, and fire hazards, this specific door has strict building code requirements (typically AAMA performance standards). We exclusively install solid-core or fire-rated assemblies for this opening, equipped with required self-closing hinges.
Often overlooked, these utility doors (like those leading into a kitchen from the side yard or out of a laundry room) are critical for overall home security and energy efficiency. While they may be simpler in design than a front entrance, we treat their weathersealing and installation quality with the same importance.
