The more abusive the environment, the more you’ll like Special Lite. Their custom-fabricated entrance systems include flush doors, monumental doors, framing, panels, vision lites, and related hardware products that are equally suited for new construction or renovation. Even in schools and other high-abuse buildings, these doors will continue to look great for years.
Special-Lite FRP Doors — the First and Still the Best
Special-Lite pioneered Fiberglass Reinforced Polyester (FRP) Flush Doors in 1981 to meet the extreme demands of the school market. These FRP doors offer trouble-free performance and long-lasting beauty in the most challenging interior and exterior entrance applications. Remarkably durable, they can withstand heavy traffic, abuse, or adverse environmental conditions—and continue to look like new for many years. Unlike metal or wood doors, they will never rust, corrode, crack, split, peel, or rot. With FRP face sheets the color goes through so scratches won’t be obvious. When you consider total lifecycle cost, Special-Lite FRP Flush Doors are the first choice for lasting value. More on Special-Lite FRP Doors
