No Wood

To address these hygienic and safety concerns our sliding doors feature an internal aluminum structure coupled with steel corner brackets and mounting plates providing unprecedented strength and a hygienic wood-free door. Furthermore, our thermally insulated casings and headers are extruded from aluminum; providing durable sanitary door frames. High density polyethylene casings and headers are available on request.
