Trusted Manufacturers We Install
Morgan Windows installs and replaces commercial doors across Tulsa and Northeastern Oklahoma: hollow metal steel doors and frames, aluminum storefront entrances and FRP doors, with the closers, exit devices and thresholds that go with them. Our own crew installs every door, and every install carries a 5-year workmanship warranty.
By the numbers
Tulsa-area windows, doors and siding from a crew you can reach.
One local crew bids, schedules and installs every opening, and answers for it afterward.
Most commercial openings use one of three systems. Which one fits depends on traffic, security, moisture and the look you want from the street.
Commercial steel doorsSteel face sheets over a core, hung in a steel frame. The standard for back doors, service doors, stairwells, mechanical rooms and classrooms. The Steel Door Institute grades them in four levels, from Level 1 standard duty with 20-gauge faces to Level 4 maximum duty with 14-gauge faces.
Aluminum storefront doorsGlass set in an aluminum door and framing system. The front door of most shops, offices and clinics. Stile width sets strength: one major maker lists 2-1/8 inch narrow stiles for moderate traffic, 3-1/2 inch medium stiles for high-traffic schools and institutions, and 5 inch wide stiles for heavy traffic.
Wet or harsh areasMolded fiberglass composite doors that do not rust. Used where steel corrodes: car washes, food processing, water treatment, pool and chemical rooms, and spaces washed down with harsh cleaners.
For small offices, clinics and churches that want the look of a house door with heavier hardware. A good fit for low-traffic entrances that are not a storefront.
The door is only half of the opening. The hardware set decides whether it closes, latches, locks and meets code.
The bid, the hardware list and the warranty work the same way for all three.
Steel doors Tulsa
Rusted, dented, pried or no longer latching. We replace the steel door, and the frame when it is bent or rusted through, with a gauge and hardware set sized for how the door is used.
Storefront
The door your customers use. We replace storefront doors and entrance hardware, keep a working entrance open during business hours where possible, and finish with the closer timed to ADA numbers.
GCs and build-outs
Send the door schedule, hardware schedule and drawings. We price doors, frames and hardware from a takeoff, list exclusions in writing and install to your sequence.
A commercial door is used hundreds of times a day, by customers, staff, deliveries and sometimes people trying to get in after hours. These are the problems that usually lead to a call.
There is no single best commercial door. This is how the three main systems compare on the openings we see most.
Glass in any door is a hazardous location under the International Building Code (Section 2406.4.1), so storefront doors and door vision lites take safety glazing. Storefront and commercial steel doors are tested under their own standards, not the residential window and door standard (NAFS).
The 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, Section 404, set the measurements for doors on an accessible route. These are the ones we check on every commercial door we install.

Bottom of the door
The 2010 Standards set no opening-force limit for exterior hinged doors. Maneuvering clearance on each side of the door is set by the floor and wall around it, so we flag it when a new door alone cannot meet it. Your design professional and building official decide what applies to your building.
Oklahoma's statewide building code is the International Building Code, 2024 edition, effective September 14, 2026. Section 1010.2.8 decides which doors must have panic hardware and how it is installed.
Assembly and school spaces with 50 or more people
Swinging doors serving rooms or spaces with an occupant load of 50 or more in a Group A (assembly, such as churches, restaurants and event spaces) or Group E (educational) occupancy may not have a latch or lock other than panic hardware or fire exit hardware. The same applies to Group H (high-hazard) occupancies.
Electrical and battery rooms
Exit doors from transformer vaults, battery or energy storage rooms, and rooms with large electrical equipment rated 800 amps or more (when the door is close to the equipment) need panic or fire exit hardware and must swing in the direction of egress (1010.2.8.2).
Listed hardware
Panic hardware must be listed to UL 305. Fire exit hardware, used on fire doors, must be listed to UL 10C and UL 305 (1010.2.8.3).
Size and force
The push bar or pad must run at least half the width of the door leaf, and it must unlatch with no more than 15 pounds of force (1010.2.8.3).
Hardware height
Door handles, pulls, latches, locks and other operating devices go 34 to 48 inches above the finished floor, with an exception for locks used only for security (1010.2.3).
Your occupancy group and occupant load come from your building official or design professional, not from us. Tell us what they require and we install it. If you do not know, we will point out which doors look like required exits before you buy hardware.
Fire doors protect openings in fire-rated walls, such as stairwells, corridors and mechanical rooms. The building code treats the door, frame and hardware as one labeled assembly.
Labeled by an approved agency
Fire door assemblies must be labeled by an approved agency, with labels permanently attached to the door or frame showing the maker and the fire protection rating (IBC 716.2.9 and 716.2.9.1).
Installed to NFPA 80
The IBC requires opening protectives, including fire doors, to be installed in accordance with NFPA 80 (IBC 716.1).
Self-closing and latching
Fire doors must latch and be self-closing or automatic-closing, with a few narrow exceptions. A fire door propped open or missing its closer is not doing its job.
How we work on rated openings
We install labeled doors, frames and hardware to the label and the manufacturer's installation instructions, and we do not cut or modify a labeled door or frame beyond what its maker allows. We do not inspect or certify fire door assemblies. That is done by your fire inspection provider or the authority having jurisdiction.
We bid commercial doors per opening, and the hardware is itemized so you can see where the money goes.
Door and frame
Hollow metal, aluminum storefront or FRP; size, single or pair; and whether the existing frame stays or is replaced. A new frame in a masonry wall takes more labor than a door swapped into a sound frame.
Grade
A Level 3 or Level 4 steel door costs more than Level 1 or 2. A medium or wide stile storefront door costs more than a narrow stile.
Glass
Vision lites and storefront glass add cost, and safety, laminated, insulated or fire-rated glazing each price differently.
Hardware set
Closer, hinges or pivots, lockset, exit device, threshold, sweep, kick plate and any electric hardware. On many commercial doors the hardware costs as much as the door.
Fire rating
A labeled door, frame and hardware assembly costs more than an unrated opening with the same look.
Work hours
Swapping a main entrance after hours or on a weekend so the business stays open adds labor, and the bid shows the schedule it assumes.
Takeoff or field measure
From drawings, we price from the door and hardware schedules and confirm every size in the field before ordering. Without drawings, we measure each opening on the walkthrough.
Our published residential door price ($2,500 to $4,000 per door installed) is for houses. Commercial doors are bid separately.
We look at each opening, the frame, the wall and how the door is used, or take off your door and hardware schedules. We note any required ratings, exit hardware and accessibility needs.
Each opening is listed with door, frame, glass and every piece of hardware, plus work hours and exclusions, so it compares line for line with other bids.
Sizes are confirmed in the field, then doors, frames and hardware are ordered. We confirm the install date and how long the opening will be out of service.
Old door and frame out, opening repaired, new frame anchored and sealed, door hung, hardware installed and the closer timed. We test the door with you and hand over keys and warranty documents.
