Weather-Resistant Features for Oceanfront Properties

Living by the ocean comes with its unique obstacles, especially when it comes to exterior doors. Bespoke doors designed for coastal homes, like Berkeley Mills’ Big Sur Pivot Door, incorporate saltwater-resistant materials such as treated hardwoods and reinforced seals to resist salty air, gale-force winds, and moisture. These elements ensure lasting strength without compromising elegance.

Choosing Marine-Grade Finishes

Marine-grade finishes are crucial for shielding your custom doors from corrosion and fading caused by the harsh coastal climate. Premium coatings, including UV-resistant coatings and water-repellent treatments, increase the durability of your doors while maintaining their beauty. Such finishes are perfect for keeping 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 strengthen the connection between interior and exterior spaces. Wide glass panels with minimal frames, for instance, enable homeowners to enjoy panoramic ocean views while creating a fluid connection between the home and its environment.
