NURIT GEFFEN-BATIM STUDIO The iron goes through special process to prevent rust. The doors cannot slide due to heaviness, but the look is much better than aluminum (that is much thicker). those doors are 12 years old, no problems at all.
DecoDesignCenter.com wow, 12 years old and no rust, that's awesome and a great job of finishing by the manufacture! I guess they either powder coat the finish or electro static the finish.
Did you render before installing the doors? - We are renovating and are putting in similar doors which we are making ourselves. We are not sure tho if we should render first as the door jamb is flat bar and might make rendering afterwards hard? »
