Order a Custom Iron or Aluminum Door: Book Your Measurement Visit

t418-39

To order a custom iron or aluminum door, you start by booking a measurement visit, where our team checks the opening on site and takes photos. From those measurements we prepare a drawing and written specification for your approval before production begins in our factory at 37 Rival Street, Tel Aviv.

Why a Measurement Visit Comes First

A custom door is only as good as the measurements behind it. Walls are rarely perfectly square, floors can slope, and frames may have shifted over time. Measuring on site lets us see these conditions before anything is cut or welded.

The visit also gives you a chance to talk through the design. We can look at the opening together, discuss how the door should swing, and note any details that affect the final result, such as the lock side, the threshold height or nearby obstacles.

What to Prepare Before We Visit

Having a few things ready makes the visit faster and more accurate. Clear access to the opening and a few photos sent in advance are the most helpful steps.

  • Photos of the door opening from inside and outside
  • A rough sketch with approximate width and height
  • Notes on the swing direction you prefer
  • Any existing door or frame you want to replace
  • Ideas on style, such as solid panel, grille or glass infill

From Measurement to Drawing and Approval

After the visit, our team prepares a drawing and a written specification. These show the dimensions, frame profile, hinge and lock arrangement, and the finish you have chosen. Nothing moves to production until you have reviewed and approved these documents.

This step is where most questions get answered. If something in the drawing does not match what you expected, it is far easier to change it on paper than after the door is made.

Production in Our Factory

Once approved, the door is manufactured in our workshop at 37 Rival Street, Tel Aviv. Iron and aluminum are cut, welded or assembled to the approved drawing, with each door built to measure rather than chosen from stock sizes.

For iron doors, the finishing typically includes hot-dip galvanizing and powder coating, which protect the metal against weather. Aluminum doors are finished to suit the chosen profile and color.

Finishing and Installation

When production and finishing are complete, the door is installed on site. Our installers check that the frame is plumb and level, that the door closes smoothly, and that hardware operates as intended before leaving.

Installation timing depends on the project and access, so we confirm the schedule with you directly once the order is approved.

Tips for a Smooth Project

Be as precise as you can about how the door will be used. A door to a busy entrance may need heavier construction than one for a utility room, and this affects both the specification and the planning.

Keep the wall and floor finishes in mind as well. Tiling or new flooring added after measurement can change the threshold height, so let us know about any planned work in the same area.

Frequently asked questions

How do I book a door measurement visit?

Send us a message with photos of the opening and a rough size, and we will arrange a convenient time to visit. We will confirm the appointment with you directly.

Is the measurement visit required before ordering?

Yes, we measure on site for every custom door so the final product fits the actual opening. Working from estimated sizes often leads to errors and rework.

Can I choose between iron and aluminum during the visit?

Yes, the visit is a good time to discuss which material suits your location, security needs and style. We will explain the differences so you can decide with confidence.

What happens after the measurement visit?

We prepare a drawing and written specification for your review. Production starts only after you approve these documents.

Common mistakes to avoid

A common mistake is ordering a door from measurements taken by eye or from an old drawing, which often leads to a poor fit. Another is forgetting to mention planned flooring or tiling work that changes the threshold height.

Our recommendation

Measure the opening yourself roughly, but always let a professional take the final measurements on site. Note the swing direction and any existing hardware before the visit so the drawing reflects your real needs.

Summary

Booking a measurement visit is the first step to a custom iron or aluminum door that fits properly. From there we move through drawing, approval, factory production and installation.
