Transcript

The doors we've gotten away from steel doors because steel rusts and then it dents, and what we've done is we've gone to fiberglass doors, and fiberglass doors don't rust, they don't dent, and the competition, some of them still use wood edges around a fiberglass door.

Our fiberglass doors got composite edges top, sides, and the bottom, so there's no wood whatsoever that can swell up and the door sticks.
