Material & Construction

What materials are your iron doors made of?

Our iron doors are crafted with 12–14 gauge steel frames, fully welded for maximum strength, and tempered insulated glass to enhance safety and energy efficiency.

Is the door color powder-coated?

For full-size exterior iron doors, powder coating is not a practical solution. The process requires the entire door assembly to be baked in a high-temperature oven (approximately 375–425°F / 190–220°C), which is not suitable for complete iron door systems.
Exterior iron doors are not just metal shells — they also incorporate thermal break layers, insulated glass, and critical sealing components. Exposing these materials to extreme heat can compromise their performance and long-term durability.
Instead of powder coating, our iron doors are finished with a high-quality, multi-layer wet paint system. This process provides excellent weather resistance, richer color depth, and allows for easy touch-ups and maintenance over time.

Can your doors withstand coastal or humid environments?

Please rest assured that all our iron doors are made with premium 12-gauge wrought iron and finished with a multi-layer protective coating, including zinc galvanization, primer, and environmentally friendly paint.
This process provides excellent resistance against rust, moisture, and coastal humidity, making the doors highly durable even in seaside environments.

Many of our customers have installed our doors near the ocean. With regular cleaning and basic maintenance, your door will stay beautiful and strong for years to come.

Which door should I choose to resist the cold weather?

All our standard iron doors are with basic insulation for energy efficiency, and we will recommend our Thermal Break Iron Doors, including thermal break iron entry doors, thermal break iron french doors and thermal break iron pivot door that can withstand cold winter weather. 

How do I decide between a standard iron door and a thermal break door?

If you’re located in states such as New York (NY), Michigan (MI), Illinois, or anywhere with harsh winter and summer conditions, adding a thermal break is a must. Please select the thermal break doors from our Thermal Break Doors collection.

If you live in an area with a mild climate, our standard iron doors will be sufficient for your needs.

How thick is the iron door?

Our standard non-thermal break iron doors are approximately 1.97 inches thick. For enhanced insulation, our thermal-break iron doors are slightly thicker at approximately 2.05/2.16 inches.

Do pivot doors require roller catches?

No, roller catches are not required for pivot doors. Well-engineered pivot doors naturally swing back and remain closed on their own due to balanced weight distribution and gravity. The only exception is when the door is opened and held at a full 90-degree position, in which case it may stay open and not self-close.

Can I upgrade the door to a thermal break door?

Sure, you can upgrade to a thermal break door for better insulation. Please contact us at info@gloryirondoors.com for the exact pricing.

Do you have a bolt to keep the stationary door locked?

Yes. Our double doors are equipped with flush bolts to keep the inactive/stationary door securely locked when not in use.

Do the P Series and S Series handles include a spring latch?

No. The P Series and S Series use a deadbolt-only locking system and do not include a spring latch. If you prefer the door to stay closed without locking it, our OF Series handles include a spring latch for everyday use.

Glass

What types of glass do you offer?

Our standard glass configuration is double-pane tempered glass filled with argon gas. Triple-pane impact-resistant glass and vacuum glass are also available as upgrade options. Contact our team for help choosing the right configuration for your project.

What’s the benefit of the tempered glass?

Tempered glass is heat-treated to improve its strength compared with standard annealed glass. When broken, it typically fractures into smaller pieces rather than large shards, which may help reduce the risk of injury.

Which glass is best for privacy?

Frosted glass is a great option for privacy. Its translucent finish obscures direct views while allowing natural light to enter.

Which glass is best for natural light?

Clear glass maximizes natural light while providing an unobstructed view of the outdoors.

Do you offer single-pane glass?

Our standard configuration is double-pane glass, and we do not currently offer single-pane glass. Triple-pane impact-resistant glass and vacuum glass are available as upgrade options.

How is triple-pane impact-resistant glass constructed?

Our triple-pane impact-resistant glass is approximately 22.52 mm thick and consists of three glass lites. Two lites are bonded with a 1.52 mm interlayer to form a laminated section, while the third lite is separated by an insulated glazing cavity. This option is recommended for hurricane-prone areas or projects requiring enhanced impact resistance.

Do you offer tinted glass?

Yes. We offer tea, blue, and gray tinted glass. Contact our team to explore the available options.

What is Low-E glass?

Low-E glass, short for low-emissivity glass, features a special coating that helps reduce heat transfer. The coating may give the glass a slightly reflective appearance under certain lighting conditions.

Which glass configuration works best with Low-E glass?

The best choice depends on your personal preference. Blue-tinted glass combined with Low-E glass is a popular option. If you prefer decorative textures, Rainstorm or Diamond glass may also be good choices.

Should I choose double-pane or triple-pane glass?

Double-pane glass is a practical choice for many homes. Triple-pane impact-resistant glass is recommended for hurricane-prone areas or projects requiring enhanced impact resistance, and it may also be selected for other locations based on your project needs.

Can your glass be used in high-altitude locations?

For high-altitude locations, we recommend upgrading to vacuum glass. It is less affected by atmospheric pressure changes than standard insulated glass, making it a more durable and reliable option. Please note that vacuum glass is a premium upgrade and costs more than standard glass.

Can I add screens to the glass windows?

Screens are available for compatible operable glass windows in our wrought iron door series. Fixed glass panels on other door styles, including French and pivot doors, cannot accommodate screens.

Can I enjoy natural light while maintaining privacy from the street?

We recommend Smart glass. Smart glass switches between clear and frosted modes, allowing you to choose between visibility and greater privacy as needed. It's a practical option for street-facing entrances.

Which glass do you recommend for better privacy?

For better privacy, we recommend Frosted Glass, Aquatex Glass and Rainstorm Glass. Frosted Glass typically provides the highest level of privacy, while textured options help obscure the view and still allow natural light in. 
For a better visual comparison, please visit our Iron Door Glass Reference page to view and compare each glass style.

Can the glass panels be opened for ventilation?

Selected wrought iron door models feature operable glass panels for ventilation and easier cleaning. On our iron French doors and pivot doors, the glass panels are fixed.

Can I combine tea glass with a decorative glass pattern?

Tea glass can be combined with decorative patterns such as Rainstorm or Water Ripple, depending on the selected configuration. Low-E glass is also available as an upgrade.

How do I choose the right glass for my door?

Consider your privacy needs, desired natural light, and preferred appearance. Clear glass maximizes visibility, while frosted and textured glass offer greater privacy. Visit our Glass Reference Page to compare available options.

Can you do an iron French window that is similar to my door?

Yes, we can make iron windows. Please contact us at info@gloryirondoors.com with your design and size specifications.

How do I clean the glass?

Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a suitable glass cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials and harsh chemicals that could damage the glass finish or surrounding door surfaces.

What should I do if my glass becomes foggy?

Condensation on the glass surface can occur due to changes in temperature and humidity. However, fogging or moisture between the panes may indicate a seal failure. Our insulated glass is covered by a one-year warranty against seal failure resulting in abnormal fogging between the panes, starting from the delivery date.

Do you offer glass samples?

We do not currently offer glass samples, but you can visit our Glass Reference page to compare available glass finishes.

Design & Customization

Do you accept fully custom designs?

Absolutely. You can send sketches, drawings, or photos, and our design team will create a detailed rendering for your approval. 

Can I choose a custom size for my door?

Yes, Glory Iron Doors accept custom sizes to ensure your door will fit your opening perfectly. Pls contact us at info@gloryirondoors.com or call us at 866-866-5020 if you can not find your size listed. 
Pricing is based on the overall dimensions, so custom sizing does not incur any additional customization fee.

Can I add sidelights or transom?

Sure. You can select to add one sidelight or two sidelights according to your rough opening size. 

The transom can be directly connected to your door or installed separately like a fixed window above the door. 

What is a bugproofing screen?

The bug-proof screens for our iron doors are diamond-mesh panels attached between the glass window and the iron frame with magnets. They can be easily removed whenever cleaning is needed.

Can I choose different colors for the exterior and interior sides of my pivot door?

Yes. You may choose one finish color for the exterior side and another finish color for the interior side of your pivot door. Please note that some connecting areas, such as the threshold and jamb edges, will be finished in one color for consistency.

Can I order the door slab only?

Our iron doors are made as prehung door units, including the door slab, frame, and threshold. To ensure proper fit and installation, we currently do not offer door slabs separately.

Can you create an extra-wide entrance using multiple double doors?

Yes. We can combine multiple double door units with a minimal shared center mullion to create an elegant extra-wide entrance while maintaining structural integrity.

Do you offer a double-cylinder deadbolt?

Yes. We can provide a double-cylinder deadbolt that requires a key to unlock from both the inside and outside. Please let us know if you'd like this option when placing your order.

Do you offer the multi-point locking system?

Yes. Our iron doors can be equipped with a multi-point locking system, depending on the door design and size. These locking systems secure the door at multiple points along the frame, providing enhanced security, improved stability, and a tighter weather seal compared to a standard single-point lock.

Please note that smart lock options are not compatible with multi-point locking systems. If you would like a smart lock, we can recommend compatible locking options based on your door design.

Can I add a multipoint lock to a pivot door?

No. Pivot doors are not designed for multipoint locking systems, as the locking points may scratch the frame and damage the finish during operation.

Can I use my own handle or lock?

Yes, in many cases, customer-supplied handles or locks may be used. To ensure proper compatibility, please share the product link with us first for review. If the hardware is suitable for your door, it will need to be sent to us before production so we can prepare the correct holes and confirm the fit.

Can I Get a Round or Arched Top Pivot Door?

Our pivot doors are designed with a flat top and are not available with a curved or arched top. If your opening has a different shape or requires additional height, we can customize a transom above the door to fit the opening.

Can I Choose a Custom Color for My Steel Door or Window?

Yes. You can choose from our standard colors or request a custom color. If you have a specific RAL color or finish in mind, send it our way and we’ll check the available options for your project.

Can I Customize the Scrollwork on My Iron Door?

Yes. We can customize the scrollwork to match your preferred style and design. If you have a sketch, drawing, or inspiration image, feel free to share it with us, and we’ll review the design with you.

Can I Add a Screen to My French Iron Door?

No. French iron doors are designed with fixed glass panels, so they cannot accommodate a screen. If ventilation and a screen are important to you, we recommend our wrought iron doors, which can feature operable windows with removable screens.

Measurement & Installation

How do I measure for my iron door?

The door sizes listed on our website refer to the complete door unit, including the jambs, threshold, and door slab(s). 

For new construction, please ensure the rough opening is at least 1" wider and 1/2" taller than the door unit size for a proper installation. If you are replacing an existing door, please measure the brick-to-brick width and height first to determine your opening size.

For further details, pls refer to our size guide. 

Can you help verify my measurements?

Yes, you can send photos and dimensions, and our team will confirm the door unit size for you, and the drawing will be sent to you for approval before production. 

Do you install the door?

We do not offer the installation service and we strongly recommend you find a local professional installer due to door weight and precision requirements.

Do your doors come pre-hung?

Yes. All our iron doors arrive pre-hung with the frame, hinges, sweep, and weatherstripping installed.

Can doors be installed on a flat facade without a portico?

Yes, but adding a small awning or overhang helps protect the finish from sun and rain.

What is the minimum width for a pivot door?

The minimum width for a pivot door is 40 inches.
💡 Tip: If the door unit size is smaller than 40 inches, we would suggest making the door a single French door or an entry hinged door.

Will you come and measure/ install my door?

We specialize in providing iron doors, sorry we do not offer measurement or installation services.

What’s the rough opening size for my iron door?

Our door size includes jams and threshold, the rough opening size should be at least 1’’wider and 0.5’’taller than the door unit size.

What does “Right Hand In Swing” mean for a double door?

Both door slabs are in swing and operable. When viewed from the exterior, the right door slab serves as the primary active door, while the left door slab can remain fixed if needed.

What does “Left Hand In Swing” mean for a double door?

Both door slabs are in-swing and operable. When viewed from the exterior, the left door slab serves as the primary active door, while the right door slab can remain fixed if needed.

What is the maximum size for a single hinged door?

For single hinged doors, we generally recommend a maximum total unit width of 48". For wider openings, we recommend adding one or two sidelights for better stability, durability, and long-term performance.

What is the maximum recommended size for double doors?

We generally recommend keeping the overall double door unit width, including the frame, within 80 inches for smooth daily use. For wider openings, sidelights may be recommended.

What is the minimum jamb size for an iron pivot door?

Our iron pivot doors require a minimum jamb size of 2" × 5.12" to accommodate the floor spring and pivot hardware. If your jamb size is smaller, a regular hinged door may be a better option.

What installation methods are available?

Our iron doors can be installed using either pre-drilled mounting holes or welded mounting lugs. The best option depends on the wall structure and jobsite conditions. Most of our doors come standard with welded mounting lugs for installation.

What is the difference between installation holes and mounting tabs?

Installation holes are pre-drilled holes on the door frame for direct fastening. Mounting tabs are welded metal tabs on the side of the frame that help secure the door unit to the surrounding structure and are usually hidden after installation. The best option depends on the project and installation conditions.

How are iron door mounting lugs installed?

Mounting lugs are welded to the interior side of the door jamb and secured to the surrounding framing from inside the home using lag bolts. This installation method provides a strong, secure attachment while keeping the exterior of the door free of exposed fasteners. An approximately 18 mm (0.7") offset is provided around the mounting lugs to allow space for finishing work after installation, such as installing interior trim or other decorative coverings. 

What is the minimum width for a double door with two sidelights?

For a double-door unit with sidelights on both sides, we recommend a minimum overall unit width of 90 inches. This helps maintain balanced proportions and allows enough space for both the double doors and the sidelights.

How should the pivot door threshold be installed?

We recommend installing the threshold slightly above the finished floor. Pivot door systems may require adjustment over time, and this installation method provides easier access for future maintenance.
