Why Steel instead of Timber?
SUPERIOR DURABILITY
Steel doors, unlike timber doors, do not retain or absorb moisture and therefore will not twist or warp when exposed to humidity of the environment. This also guarantees that steel doors are free from termites, fungus and other pests. Steel is also significantly more resistant to physical damage than timber. Steel doors can be used in commercial settings, industrial buildings, homes, storage facilities, and more. They can keep any building secure for many years because steel can last a lifetime.
ENHANCED FIRE PROTECTION (SS332:2018)
With a melting point well over 1000 degrees Celsius, steel offers much better protection against fire than timber, which is itself a fuel for the fire. Why use something flammable to protect yourself from a fire?
