The most common commercial door in Cottage Grove. Durable, fire-rated up to 90 minutes, and ideal for high-traffic exits. We install and repair hollow metal frames with panic bars, closers, and electric strikes.
Frequently used in retail storefronts and offices. Can be configured as emergency exits with push-pull hardware or panic bars. We ensure glass doors meet egress clearances and tempered glass requirements.
Preparing Cottage Grove commercial doors for harsh seasonal conditions
Minnesota winters are brutal on commercial doors. Snow buildup, ice, and freezing temperatures can cause aluminum frames to contract, panic bars to stick, and rubber sweeps to become brittle. In Cottage Grove, we see a spike in service calls every January for doors that won't latch or open smoothly. Regular winterization — like adjusting hinges and lubricating hardware — prevents most issues.
Summer brings opposite problems: humidity swells wood doors and aluminum frames can expand, causing binding. The freeze-thaw cycle in spring creates additional shifting in concrete and masonry openings. Our crews check for seasonal fit issues during every visit and recommend adjustments before they cause a code violation. We also install weatherstripping and frost-proof thresholds to keep exit doors functioning year-round.
Tip:Schedule a pre-winter door inspection in Cottage Grove before temperatures drop — closers and seals need adjustment to perform through subzero conditions.
Don't wait for a door failure to disrupt your business — watch for these common warning signs.
If your emergency exit door requires extra force or drags on the floor, it could fail during a real emergency. This often happens due to seasonal swelling or loose hinges. We adjust and lubricate in under an hour.
A push bar that rattles, sticks, or doesn't retract the latch is a fire code violation. Worn springs or misaligned strikes are common causes. Our crew can replace the mechanism or adjust the strike plate quickly.
Visible light or air leaks around an exit door mean the seal is compromised. In Cottage Grove, this can lead to heating/cooling loss and potential pest entry. We replace weatherstripping and adjust the door alignment during service.

Preferred for kitchens, industrial areas, and high-moisture environments. Stainless steel resists corrosion and is easy to sanitize. Emergency exit hardware on these doors must be food-grade approved in many cases.
Required in many stairwells and corridor separations. These doors must close and latch automatically. We install rated assemblies with proper self-closing devices and approved panic hardware to maintain fire ratings.
An exit door that stays open or fails to latch is a safety hazard and fire code failure. This is usually a closer adjustment issue or hinge problem. We fix it on-site to ensure self-latching and positive closure.
