Commercial doors that take away from the overall appearance of a structure are a thing of the past. Most people wouldn't associate rolling doors, steel garage doors or hydraulic doors with style, but Wilson Doors brings functionality and creativity together. With the capability to cover our doors with essentially any material, Wilson is the preferred manufacturer of custom commercial doors among contemporary American architects, specifiers and building professionals. With Wilson, your form will have function and your creativity will blossom.

Selection Criteria

Commercial Door Design Considerations

There is no one-type-fits-all door that suits every architect's needs. Choosing the right commercial door style depends on the building structure and environment as well as the type of covering you are considering. For example, bi-fold and single-panel hydraulic doors offer different benefits for different applications. Consult one of our application specialists for more information on which style is best suited to your needs and for assistance in specifying Wilson Doors.

PREMIER™ | Aluminum Bi-Fold Door

The gold standard of hangar doors

Made of aircraft-grade aluminum, the Wilson Premier bi-folding door features light-weight construction that reduces the need for any extra structural support. Yet they are stronger than steel and will stand up to the elements in virtually any environment without corroding. And their low-profile construction saves valuable interior space. Perhaps best of all, their design flexibility can maintain or even enhance the architectural integrity of your building. That's because you can spec the detailing to camouflage the door, accentuate it, or even turn it into an opening, closing wall of daylight windows.

ROLL-TEC™ | Bottom Rolling Steel Door

When the opening is over-sized, but the budget isn't

For large openings where cost is critical, get the value of super-sizing with the Wilson Roll-Tec bottom rolling door. In some cases, the Roll-Tec is also a suitable alternative to the Premier door. Instead of lifting open, Roll-Tec doors slide open and are manufactured in both steel and aluminum. You can choose from uni-directional, bi-parting, or floating group styles. Power operation with the industry's best electric roll-door operator is standard with your choice of pushbutton or radio remote control. And pre-construction engineering, along with robust design and supervised installation make for a complete, turn-key solution.

VALU-TEC™ | Steel Bi-Folding Door

Low cost, high value

Some jobs just beg for the lowest possible cost - period. Well, now you can fill that hole in the wall without burning a hole in your pocket - and still get the trouble-free operation and value-added benefits you would expect from a Wilson door. This steel bi-folding door features pushbutton operation, auto-locks and solid, Wilson-designed-and-built operators, cable tensioners and over-travel limit switches that simply outshine the competition. All at prices you wouldn't think possible.
