Durability for Oceanfront Homes for Oceanfront Properties

Being near the coast comes with its own set of demands, especially when it comes to exterior doors. Custom doors designed for coastal homes, like Berkeley Mills’ Big Sur Pivot Door, feature saltwater-resistant materials such as treated hardwoods and reinforced seals to resist salty air, fierce winds, and moisture. These innovations ensure robust performance without diminishing elegance.

Using Marine-Grade Coatings

Marine-grade finishes are vital for protecting 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 lifespan of your doors while maintaining 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 the living areas and the outdoors. 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.
