Yes. We develop shop drawings from your construction documents, provide finish samples, and coordinate the work against the opening and the adjacent trades.

An opening schedule, elevations or rough sizes are enough to start; drawings are optional at first contact. You get back an itemized estimate: pricing by opening, with the assumptions noted.

Send drawings for pricing →

Yes. Every opening is drawn against your elevations and returned for your review, and nothing is fabricated until the drawings are approved.

Yes. If the construction schedule moves, completed pieces can be stored at our Dallas facility until the site is ready for installation.

Yes, on request: ask the trade desk and we will send both.

Yes. At The Galatyn, a 20-story residential tower in Upper McKinney, Dallas, we drew more than two dozen openings against the architect’s elevations, from the lobby entries to the pool-court doors.

Custom commissions are drawn and quoted per project after we review the openings, drawings, quantity, glass, hardware, finish, delivery, installation, and site conditions. Residence projects typically $60k–$250k+. Multi-room projects typically $20k–$65k. Statement entrances typically $10k–$25k. Each pivot entrance is individually quoted. Every project is drawn and quoted for its openings; size, glass, finish, hardware and site conditions set the final investment.

Compare the same opening, visible frame widths, glass, hardware and finish, then check delivery, installation, exclusions, timing and written coverage. A complete scope tells you what each price actually buys.

Steel’s strength gives us fine sightlines, generous glass and the freedom to weld custom shapes. Compare the complete opening—including the outer frame, moving sash and center meeting lines—alongside the operation, glass and installation.

A pivot can create a broad, single-leaf entrance. Hinged doors and pairs offer different swing and clear-passage options. We compare the open position, hardware, threshold and daily use alongside the closed design.

We are based in Dallas and serve the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex and beyond. Select projects are delivered or installed farther afield when the scope supports it.

D’Hierro architectural ironwork is designed, fabricated, and finished in our Dallas shop. Local manufacturing gives us direct control over quality, scheduling, coordination, and storage when a construction schedule changes.

Fabrication is typically 8–12 weeks after drawing approval. Smaller projects may move faster, while unusually large or complex work may require additional time. We confirm the project schedule before fabrication begins.

Both. Our own crew handles field measurement through final installation, from the drawing through the final field adjustment.

Our scope is the steel fabrication and installation. Drywall, trim, millwork, stucco and surrounding paint are handled by your project’s finish trades. We coordinate the opening details with your builder or general contractor.

Our exterior steel profiles are internally insulated, and our standard exterior glazing is triple-silver low-E glass. We review the glass and frame details against each project’s requirements during design.

Compare thermal breaks and internally insulated steel →

No. Triple-silver describes three silver layers in the low-E coating. Triple-pane describes three panes in an insulated glass unit. The coating and the glass construction are different parts of the specification.

Understand low-E glass, daylight and heat →

Picture glass leaves the view uninterrupted. Simulated divided lites, or SDL, place bars across a continuous glass unit. True divided lites use steel divisions between separate glass units. Each gives the opening a different appearance and fabrication scope.

Doors and windows include 10-year materials coverage for insulated-glass seal failure and finish peeling, blistering, or excessive fading under normal conditions, with 2 years of related repair labor. Fully exposed gates, balconies, and railings include 5-year fabrication and installation workmanship coverage and 2-year finish coverage, including related repair labor. Coverage begins at installation.

Photographs of the openings from inside and out, rough sizes, any plans or elevations you have, and a few pictures of doors or windows you like. Bring your designer or architect if you are working with one.

Clean steel frames using water and a soft microfiber cloth. If more cleaning is needed, use mild soap diluted in water. Avoid oils, abrasive cleaners, ammonia-based products, solvents, and harsh chemicals that can damage the finish.
