Custom Impact Wood Doors in Coral Gables

Coral Gables holds its architecture to a different standard. In the City Beautiful, a new entry door has to satisfy two demanding reviewers: the building department, which requires certified hurricane-impact performance like everywhere else in Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone — and the city’s design review process, which expects the door to honor the Mediterranean Revival character the Gables is famous for.

That combination — authentic classical design and certified impact protection in one solid-wood door — is exactly what we build.

Classical doors that pass both reviews

Our classical outswing doors carry Florida Product Approval FL#16326 at +65/-65 PSF design pressure — sizes up to 50½” × 122½” for a single door and 74½” × 122¾” for a pair. Underneath the certification is a door the Board of Architects can love: solid mahogany, raised panels, carved detail, arched-transom compositions and true divided lites, handcrafted to match a 1925 facade or a new estate on Old Cutler Road with equal conviction.

For historic homes and new estates alike

Replacing the entrance on a historic Gables home is a sensitive project: the new door has to disappear into the architecture while quietly upgrading it to modern code. Because every door we make is built to order, we can match existing proportions, sticking profiles and finish tones rather than forcing a catalog size into an original opening. And for contemporary projects in Gables Estates or Cocoplum, our certified pivot line (FL#28370) brings modern scale — up to 81″ × 147¾” — with the same solid-wood credibility.
