“N” series

This is Mesker’s non-handed door that meets the needs of most openings. Available in 18ga, 16ga and 14ga cold rolled steel or A60 galvanneal for exterior applications. Its standard core is made from polystyrene, but honeycomb and urethane are optional. It can be UL fire rated from 20 minutes up to 3 hours. All doors come with closer and lock reinforcement and a single coat of primer

Steel Stiffened Doors

This door has all the same features of the “N” series except for the addition of vertical

Steel Stiffened Doors

This door has all the same features of the “N” series except for the addition of vertical stiffeners running the full length of the door. These types of doors would be used in high abuse areas.

Temperature Rise Doors

These doors are almost identical to the “N” series as well, but have a fiberboard core which keeps the side of the door not exposed to the fire below 250ºF for 30 minutes.

Multi-paneled Doors

Mesker offers doors embossed with anywhere from 2 to 9 panel configurations to add a more elegant look than just the standard flush door appearance. These doors too feature the same specifications as the “N” door.

Hollow Metal Frames

Mesker’s offers many styles of hollow metal frame material. From equal rabbet to single rabbet to cased opened and double egress profiles. Whether you need a standard 3-sided welded frame or a custom sidelite frame, ESL can make whatever your requirements are. We are also a UL certified shop so we can take care of any fire rating requirements.

Commercial Wood Doors

If you’re in need of premium commercial wood doors for your project, ESL can supply a variety of different manufacturers. We can order from companies such as Algoma and Oshkosh, each which can exceed any architects specifications for constructions and quality. They both offer a full range of veneer options and can be pre-machined, pre-finish and from the factory. Both have good lead times and if the job needs to be done quickly they offer a fast track program which can get you factory finished doors in as little as 3 weeks

Attached you’ll find both Algoma’s and Oshkosh’s standard stain color charts. If you need a custom color that to can be accomplished by submitting a sample for matching. Also attached are PDF’s showing the variety of wood veneers available, ways in which wood veneers are cut from the log and how the veneers are finally assembled on the door.

We supply doors from Poncraft Door Company, one of the original manufactures of architectural plastic laminate wood doors.

Fiberglass reinforced polymer doors & frames (FRP)

Why would you need “FRP” doors? These types of heavy duty doors and frames would be required if you have a high traffic area or highly corrosive area. They are designed to resist abuse, moisture, chemicals, salt air and a host of other environmentally troublesome elements. Unlike hollow metal and wood doors, FRP doors will never rust, split, peel or rot. They can be manufactured to meet virtually any application and accept any hardware. Another great feature is that the color goes all the way through the face sheet so scratches wont be as obvious as the would on other types of doors. They also resist fading and will never need painting. Available in standard sizes and colors.
