Report
The bulkhead door was installed late last fall and already rusting and with the rains we have had this year it leaks a lot. I should have installed a wood entry with a regular door, no rust and no leaks.

The Gordon Corporation offers the best quality basement doors in the industry. Why pay more for a lesser quality product?
