Clopay Launches Hand-Crafted Wrought Iron Garage Door Line New FeTerra Collection Gives Remodelers, Homeowners New Options to Achieve Distinctive Old World Look

June, 2009 -- A new ornamental wrought iron garage door line from garage door manufacturer Clopay Building Products offers custom builders, architects, remodelers and homeowners a luxurious new option to carry out an Old World inspired architectural theme all the way to the garage. Designed to complement exterior elements characteristic of the genre like iron entry doors, window grilles, handrails, light fixtures, fences and gates, the Clopay FeTerra Collection consists of three distinct series:

• FeTerra™ Collection – Four unique designs crafted from hand-cast aluminum scrollwork mounted on a 2-1/8" thick rust-proof solid panel aluminum door with extruded stiles and rails, custom powder-coated in either a rust or aged copper finish.

• FeTerra™ Select – Tempered glass is paired with intricate hand-forged wrought iron scrollwork designs welded to a durable 14 gauge steel frame. Seven elegant patterns and several glass options are offered, allowing light to pass through with varying degrees of privacy. All welds are ground smooth prior to finishing. The doors are treated with an industrial powder coated finish, consisting of a baked-on epoxy zinc primer basecoat to protect against rust, followed by a textured decorative top coat in copper, bronze or black. This process ensures a consistent appearance and long-lasting low-maintenance finish for the life of the door.
• FeTerra™ Accents – Decorative iron scrollwork in six styles designed exclusively to accessorize Clopay Reserve® Collection wood carriage house style doors.

"Consumer demand for a high-quality, nationally distributed wrought iron garage door has driven the launch of thisline," says Pat Lohse, vice president of residential marketing for Clopay. "The FeTerra Collection gives homeownersnew options to accessorize their garage with the same luxurious details they are specifying on other portionsof their façade to create a cohesive appearance. Each door is a one-of-a-kind piece of art certain to become anundeniable focal point."

Clopay FeTerra Collection operates with the modern convenience of an overhead door using a standard electric operator. Built-in WINDCODE® reinforcement for homes in coastal and high wind areas is offered.
