Specifications Zavala Iron Doors, San Diego.


1.MATERIALS – GAUGE AND DENSITY:
In Zavala Iron Doors, San Diego, All our Iron Doors are manufactured with top-quality iron materials. This might seem obvious, but if you ask some manufacturers in San Diego if there are inferior quality iron materials, they might be left looking for an answer. The only way they differentiate between the two is by considering rusty pieces poor material. Top-quality material is not only corrosion and rust-free, but also absolutely straight and, in the case of square tubing, with a perfect close. The materials we work with the most are 14-gauge square tubes, 3/8” x 1”- 1½” flat-bar design, and 5/8” x 5/8”square-bar design.

Zavala Iron Doors, San Diego installs reinforcement to the frame square tube; this helps separate tubular to our ball baring hinges from the door and frame.

8.THRESHOLD:
Zavala Iron Doors, San Diego was the first company to manufacture Iron Doors with a 1 ¼ ” installed threshold. Up to the year 2009, we were the only ones to provide an iron door with an installed threshold. The contractor, installer, and customer of Zavala Iron Doors, San Diego have a great advantage because it guarantees that the door has been checked thoroughly, and cannot become misaligned. One of the shortcomings of the lack of pre-installed threshold is that by not sending the door with the threshold already installed, it can easily get bent out of shape, and you will forever have problems closing it properly. You will never know whether the problem was caused by the installer, the contractor, or the manufacturer; they will all blame each other, and in the end, with Zavala Iron Doors, San Diego, you’ll realize that the problem is that the door became misaligned because it was not delivered with the threshold pre-installed by the manufacturer.
