37 YEARS OF DOOR EXPERTISE.
Steel Exterior Doors
Commercial Door Products From a Single Supplier
Imperial USA has supplied commercial doors and hardware since 1994. Its catalog combines hollow metal doors and frames with several major architectural hardware categories, making it possible to coordinate more of an opening through one product source.
Indy Doors can help determine which Imperial USA products match the project specifications, approved hardware schedule and conditions in the field. Product availability, certifications and compatible configurations should be verified for each individual opening..
Hollow Metal Doors and Frames
Imperial USA offers commercial hollow metal doors and frames for new construction, renovations and replacement openings. Available products include flush steel doors, continuous-prep doors, two-panel doors, six-panel doors, drywall frames, masonry frames and double-egress frames.
Door and frame selection may involve:
- Door and frame dimensions
- Steel gauge and construction
- Core material
- Hinge and lock preparation
- Closer and exit-device reinforcement
- Vision-lite or louver preparation
- Single-door or paired-opening configurations
- Fire-label requirements
- Existing masonry or drywall construction
Imperial hollow metal doors are available in different gauges, core types, hardware preparations and standard or custom configurations. Fire-rated options are also available for qualifying assemblies, but the door, frame, hardware, glazing and installation must all be compatible with the required rating.
Imperial USA Products for Division 08 Projects
Imperial USA products can support Division 08 door, frame and hardware packages for commercial construction and renovation work. Depending on the project, Indy Doors can assist with:
- Reviewing door and hardware schedules
- Selecting hollow metal doors and frames
- Confirming door handing and swing direction
- Coordinating hardware functions and finishes
- Matching hardware to existing preparations
- Reviewing fire-rated opening requirements
- Identifying storefront replacement components
- Coordinating mechanical hardware with access control
- Preparing product information and submittal materials
- Estimating, field measurements and delivery planning
Electrified hardware, card readers and access-control systems may also require coordination with the security integrator, electrician and Division 28 specifications. Confirming those responsibilities before ordering helps prevent incompatible preparations, missing power supplies and field modifications.
Imperial USA Commercial Door Hardware
Commercial Door Closers
Door closers control how a swinging door returns to its closed and latched position. Imperial USA offers multiple closer series, mounting accessories and commercial-grade configurations for openings with different door sizes, traffic levels and operating requirements.
The correct closer depends on the door’s width, weight, location, hinge type, mounting space and exposure to wind or building pressure. A closer that is undersized may not latch the door reliably, while excessive closing force can make an entrance unnecessarily difficult to use.
Panic Bars and Exit Devices
Imperial USA supplies panic bars, touch-bar exit devices and related accessories for commercial egress doors. These products are used on openings where occupants must be able to release the latch from the interior with a single pushing motion.
Exit hardware must be selected around the door type, frame preparation, occupancy, fire rating, outside trim and required entry function. Fire exit hardware and standard panic hardware are not interchangeable, so the complete opening requirements should be confirmed before ordering.
Commercial Locksets and Deadbolts
Imperial USA’s commercial lock offerings include lever locksets, knob locksets, mortise locks, cylindrical products, deadbolts, strikes and related accessories. Different series are available for openings with varying levels of traffic, security and durability requirements.
A private office, storage room, public entrance and mechanical room may each require a different lock function. Indy Doors can help identify the correct function, grade, handing, finish and keying requirements instead of treating every opening as if it needs the same lock.
Commercial Hinges
Imperial USA offers full-mortise commercial hinges, spring hinges, continuous hinges and related hinge accessories. Hinge selection affects door alignment, clearances, opening force and the long-term performance of the lock, closer and exit device.
The door’s size, weight, material, traffic level and closer type should be considered when selecting hinge size, thickness, bearing type and quantity. High-use or unusually heavy doors may require a more durable hinge configuration than a typical interior office opening.
Storefront Door Hardware
Commercial aluminum storefront doors use specialized components that differ from the hardware installed on hollow metal or wood doors. Imperial USA offers storefront hardware such as mortise locks, cylinders, pivots, pull handles, strikes, flush bolts, face plates, reinforcement plates and hinge kits.
Before replacing storefront hardware, the existing door stile, preparation, handing, backset and mounting dimensions should be documented carefully. Small dimensional differences can prevent a replacement component from fitting the existing door.
Protection and Auxiliary Hardware
The Imperial USA product catalog also includes hardware used to protect, control and complete commercial openings. Available categories include kick plates, push and pull plates, door stops, door holders, flush bolts, security bolts, door reinforcers, chain guards and other accessories.
Although these components may appear secondary, they can substantially affect the opening’s durability and daily operation. Protection plates can reduce surface damage, stops can prevent damage to walls and hardware, and properly selected flush bolts help secure inactive leaves in paired openings.
Keying and Lock Coordination
Commercial lock orders may require more than simply selecting a lock style. The building may need locks keyed alike, individually keyed, construction keyed or organized into a master-key system.
Indy Doors can help document the required lock functions and keying structure before an order is placed. Key-control decisions should be made early, particularly when a project includes multiple departments, tenants, secured areas or future expansion plans.

Selecting the Right Hardware for Each Opening
The best hardware package is not necessarily the most expensive one. It is the package that matches the opening’s traffic, security, accessibility and life-safety requirements without adding unnecessary complexity.
Indy Doors considers how the opening will actually be used. A high-traffic entrance, fire-rated corridor door, warehouse opening and private office door place very different demands on their hardware. Reviewing those conditions individually helps control costs while maintaining the required performance..

Common Questions
frequently asked
questions.
What information is needed to quote an Imperial USA door or hardware package?
Helpful information includes the door and frame dimensions, handing, swing direction, door material, existing hardware preparation, required lock function, finish and fire-rating information. For replacement projects, photos of the complete opening, door edge, frame, hardware and labels can help identify compatible products.
Can Imperial USA supply both the hollow metal door and its hardware?
Yes. Imperial USA offers hollow metal doors and frames along with closers, exit devices, locksets, hinges, storefront products and auxiliary hardware. Each component must still be coordinated with the opening’s dimensions, preparations, rating and intended function.
How do I know which commercial lock grade an opening needs?
The appropriate grade depends on traffic, security requirements and how frequently the lock will operate. A high-use public entrance generally requires more durable hardware than a private office or low-traffic storage room, so Indy Doors evaluates openings individually.
Can Imperial USA hardware replace another manufacturer’s existing hardware?
Sometimes, but compatibility should never be assumed. Mounting patterns, backsets, door preparations, strikes, handing and dimensional requirements must be compared before a replacement product is selected.
Are Imperial USA hollow metal doors available for fire-rated openings?
Fire-rated doors and frames are available in qualifying configurations. The required label depends on the complete assembly, including the door, frame, glazing, hinges, latch, closer, seals and installation, so every component must support the specified rating.
Can storefront door hardware be replaced without replacing the entire door?
Often, yes. Mortise locks, cylinders, pivots, handles, strikes and other components may be replaceable if the storefront door and frame remain serviceable. Accurate measurements are essential because storefront preparations vary between manufacturers and product generations.
Does Imperial USA offer commercial keying options?
Imperial USA offers keying services that may include keyed-alike, construction-keyed, master-keyed and grand-master-keyed arrangements. The desired key hierarchy should be documented before the locks are ordered.
