Commercial Door Frame Installation in Ann Arbor, Michigan

Steel and Wood Door Frames for Offices, Schools, Healthcare, Industrial, and Retail Facilities

A commercial door system depends on more than just the door itself. The frame is what absorbs daily impact, supports heavy hardware, and keeps the opening aligned and secure over time. In Ann Arbor’s busy commercial and institutional buildings—ranging from office spaces and research facilities to healthcare campuses, schools, and industrial properties—proper door frame installation is critical for safety, performance, and code compliance.

FBH Architectural Security has been supplying and installing commercial steel and wood door frames in Ann Arbor for more than 70 years. Our team ensures every frame is correctly sized, securely anchored, and properly prepared to support the door, hardware, and fire-rating requirements of the opening.

Commercial Steel and Wood Door Frames Built for Demanding Environments

Different facilities call for different frame materials. FBH works with Ann Arbor building owners, contractors, and facility managers to select the right frame type based on traffic levels, security needs, and design considerations.

Steel Door Frames

Steel frames are commonly used in environments that require durability, strength, and fire protection, including:

• Manufacturing and industrial buildings
• Warehouses and service corridors
• Schools, hospitals, and public buildings
• Fire-rated and high-security openings
• High-traffic interior and exterior locations

Wood Door Frames

Wood frames are often selected for interior spaces where appearance and architectural detail are important, such as:

• Office suites and administrative areas
• Retail interiors and hospitality environments
• Medical offices and clinics
• Customer-facing or design-focused spaces

Regardless of material, all frames we install are commercial-grade and designed to support heavy hardware while maintaining proper clearances over years of use.

Accurate Measurement and Code-Driven Installation

Installing a commercial door frame requires far more than placing it in an opening. Proper installation involves precise measurements, structural anchoring, and coordination with the door and hardware specifications. FBH manages the entire process to ensure long-term performance.

Our frame installation services include:

• On-site field measurements to ensure proper fit
• Secure anchoring to masonry, steel stud, or wood stud construction
• Installation of fire-rated frames where required
• Plumb, level, and alignment verification
• Preparation for hinges, strikes, closers, and access control hardware

We install welded frames, knock-down frames, retrofit and remodel frames, and specialty configurations in accordance with manufacturer specifications and building code requirements.

Door Frame Replacement for Existing Ann Arbor Buildings

Many older buildings in Ann Arbor experience issues with deteriorated or outdated door frames. FBH provides repair and replacement solutions for frames affected by:

• Rusted or corroded steel
• Warped or damaged wood
• Building movement or settling
• Loose hardware caused by failed reinforcement
• Fire-rated frames that no longer meet code

Our team evaluates the condition of the opening, recommends the appropriate replacement material, and installs a new frame that restores proper function, safety, and compliance.
