Hollow metal openings we assess in Placer County
- We start by checking the frame: whether it is plumb and sound, whether its label matches the rating the opening needs, and whether the hardware preps line up.
- That tells us if the existing frame can stay or needs replacement.
- Stock sizes and common ratings can arrive quickly; custom sizes, welded frames, and special finishes take longer.
- Lead time is part of the quote.
Doors, frames, and hardware we install
- Hollow metal doors, welded and knock-down frames, and the hardware that goes with them — hinges, closers, exit devices, locksets, coordinators, and gasketing — installed to template.
- On a rated opening the hardware is part of what makes the assembly compliant, so we specify and install it as a set.
Fire-rated openings and local requirements
- Requirements for a hollow metal opening depend on the specific opening — its fire rating, egress role, accessibility function, and the occupancy of the building.
- They are set by the building and fire authority with jurisdiction over your address, which in Placer County can be a city department or the county, depending on where the property sits.
- We check what applies to your opening before recommending work, and we tell you when a component repair is not the same as a full compliance inspection of the assembly.

Hollow Metal Doors in Placer County, CA — FAQs
Do you provide hollow metal doors in Placer County?
Yes. Placer County is inside our Northern California service area, and we dispatch to the listed cities in Placer County from our Sacramento base. Scheduling depends on the job, so send the address and the problem and we’ll confirm availability.
What should I have ready before the visit?
Opening location, size, and handing (or we field-measure); Required fire rating if known, or a photo of the existing frame label; Wall construction — stud, masonry, or existing frame reuse; Hardware needs — panic device, lockset, closer, card reader prep; Whether the opening must stay secured during the swap.
Do you install the hardware too?
Yes — hinges, continuous hinges, closers, exit devices, locksets, thresholds, coordinators, and gasketing, installed to template. On rated openings the hardware is part of what makes the assembly compliant, so it isn't something to leave to another trade.
Can you replace just the door and keep the existing frame?
Often yes, when the frame is plumb, sound, and its label is intact and matches the required rating. We verify frame condition and hardware prep locations first — a new door hung in a racked or unrated frame doesn't give you a compliant opening.
What is the difference between a welded and a knock-down frame?
A welded frame arrives as one rigid unit and is set before the wall is finished — it's stronger and standard on new construction and masonry. A knock-down frame ships in three pieces and assembles around an existing finished wall, which makes it the usual choice for replacement work.
