With no vertical supports and only a wood underlying construction, Standard Wood Doors are prone to sagging, warping and breakage upon impact.

Krieger Wood Doors are built with steel stiffened channels, vertical hats and steel lock boxes, a combination that offers not only durability but exceptional security. Krieger durability shows through with impact, static load and rack testing.

Standard Wood Doors can typically only be filled with light-weight sound deadening material as the internal structure is not strong enough to support any other core material.

Krieger Wood Doors can be manufactured with various core materials to meet blast, acoustical, pressure, radio frequency shielding, thermal barrier and even hybrid performance needs.

Standard Wood Doors are covered with a thin veneer which provides no additional strength. Furthermore, because of the fragile design, higher fire, acoustical and security ratings are not achievable.

Krieger Wood Doors come standard with 16 or 14 gage steel skin built to withstand a lifetime of abuse without showing wear and tear. The unique design enables the door to achieve higher fire, acoustical and security ratings.

The 3-ply veneering application allows for adhesion, maintenance and finishes.
