The Cornell Cookson Products We Install and Service
Cornell Cookson builds a full line of rolling closures, and we install and service across it.
Rolling steel service doors
The workhorse commercial door: interlocking steel slats that coil into a barrel above the opening, in steel, aluminum, or stainless, with the gauge matched to the duty. We install new service doors and repair the barrel, counterbalance, guides, and operator on the ones you run.
Fire-rated doors and counter shutters
Cornell Cookson's UL-labeled fire doors and fire counter shutters provide up to three hours of protection and drop to seal an opening when the fire alarm calls for it. We install and service these rated assemblies, including the required drop testing, through a specialist trained on them.
Counter doors, grilles, and insulated doors
Counter and counter-shutter doors close off service windows and concession counters, coiling security grilles lock down storefronts while maintaining air and visibility, and insulated doors, like the Thermiser line, reduce air leakage in conditioned space. We handle the full range.
High-performance rolling doors
For high-traffic openings, Cornell Cookson's high-performance rolling doors, such as the Extreme line, open fast, up to around 24 inches per second, and are tested to over a million cycles, which suits a busy dock or parking structure that a standard door cannot keep up with.

Fire-Rated and High-Performance: What Sets Cornell Cookson Apart
Cornell Cookson's strength is the hard stuff: fire-rated assemblies that must perform in an emergency, and high-cycle doors that must not quit on a busy dock. Both are where a custom-built Cornell Cookson door earns its keep.
UL-rated fire protection
Cornell Cookson fire doors and fire counter shutters are UL-labeled for up to three hours and use an advanced closing system that releases the door to seal an opening when the alarm sounds. These assemblies require periodic drop testing to stay compliant, which we perform through a trained specialist.
High-cycle, high-speed performance
The high-performance lines open fast and are tested to over a million cycles, so a high-traffic opening keeps moving without the counterbalance wear that sidelines a standard door. We spec the right cycle rating for how hard your door actually works.
Energy efficiency where it counts
Insulated Cornell Cookson doors, like the Thermiser line, sharply reduce air leakage at a conditioned or climate-sensitive opening, which matters for an Austin-area building fighting the summer heat. We help you decide where insulation pays for itself.
Central Texas Conditions
Rolling Steel and Fire Doors Built for Central Texas Operations
A commercial door here has to withstand dust, heat, storms, and high cycles, and a fire door has to remain compliant. Here is what we design and maintain across the Greater Austin area.
Dust, heat, and high-cycle wear
Warehouse yards and gravel lots pack grit into the guides and barrel, and Central Texas heat accelerates counterbalance wear on a door that cycles hundreds of times a day. A preventive maintenance schedule that services the counterbalance and cleans the guides is what prevents a mid-shift failure.
Compliance that cannot lapse
A fire-rated Cornell Cookson door only protects the building if it is tested and working, so we keep fire assemblies on a drop-test and inspection schedule. As the Austin area grows and inspections tighten, that documentation keeps your building compliant and your insurer satisfied.
Squared Away
We Service Cornell Cookson and Every Commercial Door Brand
Cornell Cookson doors are built to last, but any commercial door needs service: a worn counterbalance, bent slats, a failed operator, misaligned guides, or a fire assembly due for its drop test. We carry the heavier winding bars, guides, and hardware that these doors require, and we repair them with minimal downtime.
And your door does not have to be a Cornell Cookson for us to help. We install Cornell Cookson and service essentially any brand of rolling steel, coiling, or fire door, so whatever is on your building now, we can repair it, bring it up to code, or replace it.

Why Facilities Call Squared Away for Cornell Cookson
A commercial door is only as good as the specialist behind it. Here is what you get with us.
Local specialists, not a call center
We are based in Cedar Park, and the owners answer the phone. A local commercial team that knows your building beats a national dispatch queue and rotating techs when a dock door is down.
Counterbalance and fire expertise
Rolling steel counterbalance and UL-rated fire assemblies are where generalists get out of their depth. We size and tension the counterbalance correctly and handle fire drop testing through a trained specialist.
Stocked hardware, minimal downtime
We carry the winding bars, guides, and counterbalance parts these doors need, so repairs finish in as few visits as possible and your operation keeps moving.
Commercial terms and documentation
Net 30 for commercial accounts, itemized written proposals, a certificate of insurance on file, and per-door maintenance programs, handled the way a facility needs.
Straightforward Pricing
Pricing, Terms, and Lead Times
You get two layers of protection: the Cornell Cookson manufacturer warranty on the door, which varies by product, plus our own workmanship guarantee on the install and service. We review the coverage with you before any work, and we keep a certificate of insurance on file for your records.
Rolling steel repairs start with a commercial service call from $250, applied to the work, and new Cornell Cookson doors are quoted by size, slat, rating, and operator after a free on-site assessment. Commercial accounts run on Net 30, custom doors typically take a few weeks to build and deliver, and we offer preventive maintenance and drop-test programs for high-cycle and fire-rated doors. No hidden fees; the price is confirmed before any work begins.
