Custom Fab Project: Doors for a Private Residence in Winter Park, Fla.

Sheet Metal Contractor: Vickers Metal Works Inc., Orlando, Fla.

The craftsmen at Vickers Metal Works helped the owner of this modern residence turn his vision into a reality with this stunning entrance to his home.

After meeting with the home's owner on several occasions, Vickers Metal Works Inc. created a shop drawing for the project. Before starting on this design-build project, the owner had his interior design firm Ewing Noble & Winn, of Winter Park, Fla., review and approve Vicker's drawing.

A 16 gage #3 stainless steel sheet was used to clad over the existing doors with a 38 inch by 3 inch stainless steel brush finished flat bar.
