On the ground
Downtown Matthews and the medical corridor are two different trades
The Trade Street end of town has commercial buildings old enough that the frames have moved, the openings are not standard sizes, and ordering to nominal is a reliable way to get a leaf you have to send back. That work is measurement first, and quite often the frame is the job while the door is incidental.
The medical and professional buildings out toward the hospital are the opposite. Newer stock, standard openings, and the work is specification — hardware function for spaces where patients, staff and controlled storage share a corridor, and clear width and opening force that matter because people using mobility aids actually use these doors.

What Matthews work actually involves
Non-standard openings downtown

Older industrial off Matthews-Mint Hill
