STEEL ENTRY DOOR REPLACEMENT — METROTOWN, BURNABY, BC

The original steel door was 15 years old and had lost its perimeter seal — a common failure point in BC coastal humidity. Cold air was entering through the hallway every winter, and the homeowner had placed a draught stopper at the base for three years without fully solving the problem.

When we removed the old unit, we found moisture damage in the rough frame behind the right-side trim — not visible from outside and not something the homeowner knew about. Left untreated, it would have continued to spread behind a new door.

We removed the old door and frame completely, treated and replaced the affected section of rough framing, applied a moisture barrier behind the new frame, and set the new door plumb and level in the corrected opening.

The new door is steel construction with a thermal break frame, mineral wool panel insulation, and three EPDM perimeter seals. Hardware: multi-point locking system with reinforced anti-lift hinges. Finish: two-tone custom colour — graphite exterior, white interior — ordered directly from the manufacturer at no additional cost.
