Steel doors are a building-materials line for hardware importers and construction suppliers. Size, gauge and hardware are agreed per order.
Category description
How CoExpys handles Steel Doors
We supply steel security and interior doors from Jiangsu and Hebei manufacturers for hardware distributors and building contractors. The specification that decides whether a steel door line sells is the gauge and the frame profile — a thinner gauge door with a hollow frame is a different product entirely, and mixing the two in one shipment is how a buyer ends up with unsold stock. We agree the gauge, the frame, the finish and the hardware set on the contract, check the wall thickness and the lock set on a sample, and verify the door count and the hardware on a random pallet at inspection.
Every shipment is quoted against a confirmed specification, packed to the format agreed for your channel, and documented so the Cuban side can clear it without guesswork.

Shipment handling
Packing, loading, inspection and clearance
Typical packing
Each door is film-wrapped on a wooden pallet with corner and edge protection, with the size, gauge and hardware set marked on the pallet.
Enquiry units
Piece, pallet, or FCL 20ft / 40ft. We quote by the piece.
Container plan
A 20ft container holds approximately 250–350 doors depending on the size and the pallet format.
Inspection focus
Gauge and thickness check on the sampled doors, lock and hinge set verification, frame squareness check, finish inspection for scratches and paint defects, and door count confirmation on a random pallet.
Clearance notes
Certificate of origin and the material test certificate for the steel gauge. The size, gauge and type stated on the licence must match the contract and the packing list.
