Our Metro 200 frame system serves as the foundation for unlimited customization possibilities, allowing us to modify frame widths, create unique shapes, and apply specialized finishes that transform standard openings into architectural statements. Whether you’re working on a luxury residential project, commercial development, or historic renovation, our manufacturing expertise ensures that your vision becomes reality without compromise on quality, performance, or timeline.
Why Custom Steel Manufacturing Matters in Modern Architecture
The growing demand for custom steel windows and doors reflects broader architectural trends toward personalization and seamless integration of indoor and outdoor living spaces. Recent industry analysis shows that architects are increasingly inclined towards designs with thinner lines and smaller profiles, emphasizing sleek and modern aesthetics that contribute to minimalist and sophisticated architectural styles. This design preference creates demand for manufacturing capabilities that can produce custom frame widths and profiles that achieve contemporary aesthetic goals while maintaining structural integrity.
Customization is key in 2025, with homeowners and designers seeking unique, made-to-order solutions that reflect personal taste and architectural needs. Custom manufacturing allows designers to specify exact dimensions, unique shapes, and specialized features that simply cannot be achieved with standard products, enabling architectural creativity while ensuring perfect integration with overall design concepts.
For commercial and residential projects alike, custom steel windows and doors provide solutions for challenging installations where standard products cannot accommodate structural requirements, unusual opening sizes, or specific performance needs. Our manufacturing capabilities ensure that custom solutions maintain the same high-performance standards as our standard products, including weather resistance, energy efficiency, and long-term durability.
Metro 200 Frame Customization Options
Our Metro 200 frame system represents the pinnacle of custom steel window and door manufacturing, designed to accommodate virtually unlimited customization while maintaining structural integrity and performance characteristics that professionals demand.
Custom Frame Widths: While our Metro 200 frames are available in two standard widths serving the majority of applications, our manufacturing process enables us to create custom frame widths that precisely match your design requirements and structural needs. This capability proves particularly valuable for projects requiring specific proportional relationships between frame and glass, unusual wall thicknesses, or integration with existing architectural elements. Custom width capabilities ensure that your steel windows and doors achieve the exact visual impact intended while providing optimal performance characteristics.
Unique Frame Shapes: Beyond standard rectangular configurations, Metro Steel’s manufacturing capabilities extend to creating custom frame shapes that enable truly distinctive architectural features. Whether your project calls for arched openings, angular geometric designs, curved configurations, or complex multi-sided shapes, our fabrication processes can accommodate virtually any geometric requirement while maintaining structural integrity and weather performance. Custom frame shapes open up exciting design possibilities for creating signature architectural elements that distinguish your project from standard construction.
Specialized Finishes: The visual impact of steel windows and doors depends heavily on finish selection, making our comprehensive finishing capabilities essential for achieving intended aesthetic results. Our Metro 200 frames can be finished with a wide range of durable coatings that enhance appearance while providing enhanced corrosion resistance and longevity. Standard options include premium powder coating in virtually any color specification, while specialized finishes include textured coatings, metallic finishes, and multi-tone treatments that create unique visual effects while preserving protective qualities essential for long-term performance.
Manufacturing Advantages and Quality Control
Metro Steel’s in-house manufacturing capabilities provide significant advantages in quality control, precision, and project coordination that cannot be matched by companies relying on third-party fabrication. Our controlled manufacturing environment ensures consistent quality standards across all custom projects, with rigorous testing and inspection procedures that verify dimensional accuracy, structural performance, and finish quality before shipment.
Steel doors are set to dominate luxury home design in 2025, blending strength, elegance, and versatility, with customization taking center stage allowing homeowners to express their unique style with tailored designs and finishes. Our manufacturing processes accommodate both small custom orders and large commercial projects with equal attention to detail, ensuring that every custom steel window and door meets or exceeds specifications regardless of project size or complexity.
Direct manufacturing control enables us to maintain project schedules more effectively, providing accurate delivery timelines and coordinating production with your construction schedule to minimize delays. This manufacturing advantage proves particularly valuable for complex projects where multiple custom configurations must be coordinated and delivered in proper sequence.
Applications and Design Process
Custom steel windows and doors find applications across diverse project types, from luxury residential developments and commercial buildings to institutional facilities and historic renovations. Residential applications often focus on creating unique aesthetic features such as oversized pivot entry doors, floor-to-ceiling window walls, and specialty glazing configurations. Commercial projects frequently require custom solutions for challenging installations where standard products cannot accommodate structural requirements or specific performance criteria.
Metro Steel’s custom design process begins with thorough consultation to understand your project requirements, aesthetic goals, and performance needs. Our technical team works closely with architects, designers, and contractors to develop custom solutions that optimize both appearance and functionality while ensuring compatibility with your construction schedule and budget parameters.
