A side-by-side summary. Ratings and options depend on the specific listing or approval, so confirm each opening against its schedule.
| Door type | Construction | Fire ratings | Wind, sound or other ratings | Typical applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hollow Metal Doors | 14 to 20 gauge steel faces over a reinforced core | 20, 45, 60, 90 min, 3 hr | Hurricane-rated and windstorm resistant; Miami-Dade NOA products | Hospitals, schools, government, industrial |

Start with the wall. The wall's fire rating sets the door's rating, so confirm each opening's required rating in the code analysis before choosing a material.
Check exterior wind requirements. In Miami-Dade and Broward counties (the HVHZ), exterior doors need a Miami-Dade NOA or a Florida Product Approval approved for HVHZ use.
Choose the material for the environment: hollow metal for durability and the highest fire ratings, wood for finished interiors, and fiberglass for salt air, pools and washdown areas.
Set the duty level. ANSI/SDI A250.8 grades hollow metal doors from Level 1 standard duty (20 gauge) to Level 4 maximum duty (14 gauge).
Add special performance only where the opening needs it: UL 752 bullet resistance, blast criteria, STC sound ratings or lead lining.
Coordinate glazing and hardware. Vision lites must be listed for the door's rating, and closers, latches and exit devices must suit the fire rating and egress requirements.

Industries where our commercial doors are specified:
Mills & Nebraska has supplied commercial doors from Orlando since 1933. We operate a 36,000 sq ft Orlando facility with in-house Intertek-certified labeling for fire and wind, plus a Lakeland location, with delivery by our own fleet across Florida.
We supply hollow metal doors, custom wood doors, prehung wood doors, fiberglass doors, and specialty doors (bullet-resistant, blast-rated, acoustic and lead-lined) throughout Florida, plus glass vision lites and light kits installed in hollow metal and wood doors. Fire and hurricane ratings are options on those doors rather than separate products, and the comparison table above shows the ratings for each door type.
Yes. Mills & Nebraska supplies hurricane-rated and windstorm resistant door assemblies for Florida wind zones, including products with Miami-Dade NOA approval for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone.
A fire-rated door is tested to NFPA 252 or UL 10C and labeled to hold back fire for a set time, from 20 minutes to 3 hours. A hurricane-rated door is an exterior assembly tested for wind pressure and, where required, debris impact, and approved under Florida Product Approval or a Miami-Dade NOA. Many hollow metal assemblies carry both ratings.
Our team specializes in complex specifications and custom configurations. Let us help you find the right door solution for your project.
