Forte

Clean, solid steel

An uninterrupted steel face. Simple, versatile and easy to pair with your architecture.

Forte keeps the door face completely clean. Its flat profile works with a quiet neutral finish or a stronger colour, while a separately framed sidelight can introduce daylight beside the door. Start with the look, then let us specify the core, frame and hardware for your opening.

Configure Forte

Choose your opening and options, then request a measurement. No payment is taken here.

Profile: Flush steel face with no glass or decorative grooves
Light: No glass in the door leaf
