Weather-Resistant Features for Oceanfront Properties

Living by the ocean comes with its challenges, especially when it comes to exterior doors. Custom doors designed for coastal homes, like Berkeley Mills’ Big Sur Pivot Door, boast high-performance materials such as treated hardwoods and reinforced seals to resist salty air, fierce winds, and moisture. These elements ensure long-lasting durability without diminishing elegance.

Choosing Marine-Grade Finishes

Marine-grade finishes are vital for protecting your custom doors from corrosion and fading caused by the harsh coastal environment. High-quality finishes, including UV-resistant coatings and water-repellent treatments, prolong the longevity of your doors while maintaining their beauty. Such finishes are ideal for preserving vibrant colors and natural wood textures.

Integrating Natural Materials with Scenic Views

Coastal homes thrive on a connection to their surroundings. Custom doors featuring natural materials like wood and glass strengthen the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Wide glass panels with minimal frames, for instance, allow homeowners to enjoy panoramic ocean views while creating a fluid connection between the home and its environment.
