Weather-Resistant Features for Oceanfront Properties

Being near the coast comes with its challenges, especially when it comes to exterior doors. Bespoke doors designed for coastal homes, like Berkeley Mills’ Big Sur Pivot Door, feature high-performance materials such as treated hardwoods and reinforced seals to withstand salty air, gale-force winds, and moisture. These features ensure robust performance without sacrificing style.

Incorporating Marine-Grade Finishes

Marine-grade finishes are vital for safeguarding your custom doors from corrosion and fading caused by the harsh coastal elements. Durable treatments, including UV-resistant coatings and water-repellent treatments, extend the longevity of your doors while protecting their natural charm. Such finishes are excellent for maintaining vibrant colors and natural wood textures.

Blending Natural Materials with Scenic Views

Coastal homes excel in a connection to their surroundings. Custom doors featuring natural materials like wood and glass amplify the connection between interior and exterior spaces. Wide glass panels with minimal frames, for instance, allow homeowners to enjoy panoramic ocean views while creating a smooth flow between the home and its environment.
