How It’s Made: Classic™ Steel
The Classic™ Steel garage door is designed to handle daily use while looking great for years to come. You can choose from single-, double-, or triple-layer construction, with every option starting with high-quality steel for reliable strength. For insulation, pick either Intellicore® polyurethane—Clopay’s advanced foam that expands to fill the door for maximum energy efficiency and durability—or opt for solid polystyrene panels that add comfort and quiet.
The exterior steel panels are protected by a multi-layer coating system, including hot-dipped galvanizing, a special metal oxide pretreatment, and a baked-on primer and topcoat, all working together to keep rust away and the finish looking sharp. Maintenance is easy, with a replaceable vinyl bottom seal in a rust-resistant aluminum retainer blocking out water and drafts, and removable window grilles for simple cleaning.
Safety comes built in, too, thanks to the patented Safe-T-Bracket® that helps prevent injury during maintenance. Insulated models also include smooth, quiet nylon rollers and heavy-duty steel hinges, so your door works smoothly every day.

Plus, you can pick from single-, double-, or triple-layer doors to get the style you want with the durability you need.

Ultra-Grain Paint Option Brochure
Clopay’s Ultra-Grain® finish delivers the best of both worlds: the realistic look of natural wood with the low maintenance and energy efficiency benefits of insulated steel. But unlike real wood, it’s UV-resistant and impervious to moisture, so it won’t fade, rot, split, shrink or crack, saving you and the environment material, energy and resources necessary to maintain or replace door components.

Which architectural styles best complement Classic Steel doors?
The Classic™ Steel garage door is designed to suit just about any home thanks to its versatile raised panel design and range of color and window options.

Colonial and ranch-style houses can enhance their curb appeal thanks to the door’s clean lines and customizable finishes. The Classic™ Steel also works beautifully with more contemporary homes, offering a simple, understated look that blends well with modern exteriors. Even Craftsman and cottage-style houses benefit from its understated elegance and wide variety of panel, window, and color choices. No matter your home’s architectural style, Classic™ Steel provides a polished, welcoming look that never goes out of fashion.
