Why Local
Prior Lake commercial buildings deal with freeze-thaw cycles, humidity from the lake, and snow load that can warp poorly installed doors. We understand these conditions and choose materials and seals that hold up through Minnesota winters. Our crews have worked on retail centers along Highway 13 and office buildings near the lakefront — we know the local layout.
Because we're based in the metro area, we can respond quickly when a fire door fails an inspection or gets damaged. We keep a fleet of trucks stocked with common fire door parts for Prior Lake jobs. No waiting for out-of-state shipping. You get a local crew that shows up, fixes the problem, and backs its work.

What We Service
From glass storefronts to industrial overhead doors — we work on all commercial door types found in Prior Lake businesses.
Standard for most Prior Lake commercial exits. Made from galvannealed steel with honeycomb cores. Common ratings: 60, 90, and 180 minutes. Durable for high-traffic back-of-house corridors.
Used in exterior fire escape stairwells where aesthetics matter. Rated up to 90 minutes. DJ Commercial Door installs premium hardwood edge-glued stiles that resist warping in Minnesota humidity.
Seasonal Preparedness
Preparing Prior Lake commercial doors for harsh seasonal conditions.
Winter in Prior Lake can drop well below zero, causing steel frames to contract and door clearances to tighten. Ice buildup on thresholds and fire escape platforms can block self-closing action. We use heavy-duty weatherstripping and adjustable thresholds that move with the temperature swings, keeping your fire door functional all year.
Spring thaws and lake-effect snow often produce moisture that seeps into unsealed door edges. This leads to rust on hinges and latch mechanisms. During replacement, we apply marine-grade sealants and use stainless steel hardware to prevent corrosion. Regular yearly inspections after winter help catch small issues before they cause a door to fail a fire inspection.
Pro Tip
Schedule a pre-winter door inspection in Prior Lake 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 fire escape door sticks or needs a shoulder shove to close, the frame may be bowed or hinges sagging. This creates a fire gap that fails code. Call us to replace the door assembly before your annual inspection.
A gap larger than 1/8 inch between the door and frame violates fire rating requirements. Inspect with a flashlight. In Prior Lake's freeze-thaw, gaps widen over time. We can close them with an engineered replacement.
Door closers, panic bars, and hinges exposed to snow melt and salt will seize up. If hardware is pitted or doesn't move smoothly, replacement is cheaper than a failed fire drill. We use coated hardware built for Minnesota weather.
Simple Process
3 simple steps from first call to completed work.
We inspect your existing door, frame, and hardware. Then we take measurements and note any wall or floor changes needed for code compliance.
We order the exact fire-rated door assembly for your opening. All materials meet UL and Warnock Hersey listings for Minnesota commercial buildings.
Our crew removes the old door, installs the new unit, adjusts closers and latches, then tests operation and self-closing function. You get a final walkthrough and certificate.
