1. Do you install the door, or just build it?

We offer a complete turnkey service. Our team removes your old door and frame, performs any necessary framing adjustments (or "drywall patch-up" coordination), and installs the new iron unit, including the jamb, threshold, and hardware.

2. Are iron doors energy efficient?

Yes. While metal conducts heat, our thermal break technology and foam-injected cores significantly reduce thermal transfer. Combined with dual-pane Low-E glass and tight weather stripping, our doors meet strict California energy standards.

3. Does the door come with a lock?

We bore the door to standard dimensions to accept any standard deadbolt and handle set (Baldwin, Emtek, Schlage, or Smart Locks). We can recommend hardware styles that match the iron finish, or you can provide your own hardware for us to install.

4. What is the difference between a "Security Screen Door" and an "Iron Entry Door"?

A Security Screen Door is a secondary door installed in front of your existing wooden door. An Iron Entry Door (which this page describes) replaces your existing door entirely with a thick, insulated steel system.

Wrought Iron Entry Doors

The Ultimate Statement of Luxury and Security

A custom wrought iron entry door does more than just secure your home—it transforms your entire façade. At Kim Iron Works, we replace standard wood or fiberglass doors with hand-forged steel masterpieces that provide a fortress-like barrier without sacrificing elegance.

Serving Fullerton, Yorba Linda, and high-end estates across Orange County, we build doors that are engineered to last a lifetime, combining Old World craftsmanship with modern weather-proofing technology.

Custom Door Styles & Configurations

We design doors to fit any architectural opening, from standard entryways to grand, two-story foyers.

1. Double Entry Doors

The most popular choice for luxury homes. Double doors create a wide, welcoming opening and a dramatic visual impact.

Arched Tops: "Eyebrow" or full "Radius" arches that soften the look of masonry homes.
Square Tops: Clean lines for Modern or Mediterranean styles.
Transoms & Sidelights: We can fabricate matching iron panels above (transoms) or beside (sidelights) the door to flood your entryway with light.

2. Single Entry & Pivot Doors

Perfect for standard openings or modern architectural designs.

Pivot Doors: Large-scale doors that rotate on a hidden axis point rather than side hinges, allowing for wider, heavier panels.
Wine Cellar Doors: Decorative iron doors with glass backing to showcase your collection while maintaining climate control.

Engineered for Performance

Our doors are not just metal gates; they are fully sealed entry systems.

Operable Glass Panels: A signature feature of our iron doors. The glass panels open independently from the iron frame. This allows you to let in a fresh breeze and easily clean the glass from the inside, without opening the door itself.
Insulated Design: The hollow steel tubes are injected with high-density Polyurethane Foam. This provides thermal insulation (keeping heat out and cool air in) and soundproofing.
Weather Stripping & Thresholds: We install integrated iron thresholds and commercial-grade weather stripping to seal out drafts, moisture, and dust.
Heavy-Duty Ball Bearing Hinges: Despite their immense weight (often 500+ lbs), our doors glide open effortlessly due to our grease-packed, high-capacity hinges.

Glass & Finish Options

Customize the level of privacy and light in your entryway. We use tempered, dual-pane safety glass for energy efficiency.

Privacy Glass: Options include Rain, Flemish, Aquatex, or Sandblasted textures that let light in but obscure the view from the street.
Clear Low-E Glass: For maximum visibility and light transmission.
Custom Finishes: From "Oil Rubbed Bronze" to "Matte Black" or "Pewter," our multi-step finishing process includes zinc-rich primers to prevent rust.
