Eliason offers a complete heavy-duty exterior entrance systems for new construction and replacement use in the North American commercial construction market. Each entrance is custom built to your design specifications using the toughest, longest-lasting and top quality doors possible. Experience the convenience, reliability and performance advantages of having a complete, ready-to-install entrance supplied by a single source, delivered to the job site quickly and on time.
The high performance of our flush doors is made possible by advanced design features such as mitered corners, full-width tie rod joinery, locked-in-place face sheets, and a poured-in-place urethane foam core that bonds the door components into a single, integral unit. This gives our flush doors just the right balance of flexibility, rigidity, and impact resistance, as well as thermal insulating properties superior to hollow metal doors. Our monumental doors feature the same tie rod joinery as our flush doors, plus true mortise and tenon construction for excellent strength and long life in a full-vision door.
