Weather-Resistant Features for Oceanfront Properties
Being near the coast comes with its challenges, especially when it comes to custom entryways. Custom 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, fierce winds, and moisture. These innovations ensure robust performance without compromising visual appeal.
Using Marine-Grade Finishes
Marine-grade finishes are essential for protecting your custom doors from corrosion and fading caused by the harsh coastal climate. Durable treatments, including UV-resistant coatings and water-repellent treatments, prolong the lifespan of your doors while protecting their natural charm. Such finishes are perfect for maintaining vibrant colors and natural wood textures.
Integrating Natural Materials with Scenic Views
Coastal homes flourish with a connection to their surroundings. Custom doors featuring natural materials like wood and glass enhance the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Wide glass panels with minimal frames, for instance, enable homeowners to enjoy panoramic ocean views while creating a smooth flow between the home and its environment.
