from a "quality company" or so the interweb and BBB claimed. I spent a small fortune to keep toys secure. I asked for a specific size of door, they normally build it, with a specific set of options that they offer and for a wall of specific thickness. Sounds like a good deal, they build what I want and it is secure.
Well my door arrived, five weeks late. It was made for a wall of unknown thickness and it will take some serious work on my part to get it installed and secure for use, adding a week or two of evenings to the already lagging move I have been waiting to make.
No the door itself is good looking and appears to work as advertized. But the hardware they included is/was only partially useable for the install as the door frame was exactly as wide as the opening.(the opening was built to specifications they recommended and in a shape they asked for on an engineering drawing they provided) This renders the levelers and adjustments useless. No matter they included bolts twice as long as required and useless for the purpose anyway.
I guess I could call or email for a little of the much promised "customer support", but sadly nobody is available anymore,,you see the CC has already been charged so service is a moot point.
My recommendation is to avoid at all costs, Brown Safe Manufactoring. The make 80% of a great product and include 20% of good customer service for 100% of the price. Great door, lousy frame, crummy service. Time for me to let the BBB have a little feedback.
I'm only posting this because I am a little miffed and there is not much to do at this point but fix it myself. I think they are "Sportsman's Steel" under a new name, but that's just me.
