Wyoming is defined by wind and extremes — Cheyenne averages over 170 days per year with sustained winds above 15 mph, the state records some of the coldest temperatures in the lower 48, and elevation ranging from 3,100 to 13,800 feet creates UV intensity that destroys finishes faster than almost anywhere in the country. Winter wind chills drop below minus 50, summer temperatures on the plains hit 100, and the daily temperature swings of 40-plus degrees through spring and fall stress every seal and joint. Your front door faces conditions that would destroy most materials in a few seasons.
Steel and iron doors are the only practical choice for Wyoming — where wood cracks from extreme cold, warps from dramatic temperature swings, and degrades from high-altitude UV. Add the luxury markets in Jackson Hole where homes sell for $5 to $50 million, the ranch estates of the Bighorn Mountains, and the resort communities of Cody and Sheridan, and steel delivers both mountain resilience and the architectural presence Wyoming's premier properties demand.
What Wyoming's Climate Demands
Jackson Hole: Mountain Luxury and Deep Cold
Jackson sits at 6,200 feet with the Teton Range rising to nearly 14,000 feet above. Winter temperatures drop below minus 30, snowfall exceeds 150 inches in the valley and 400-plus inches at elevation. UV intensity at altitude is roughly 20 percent higher than sea level. Steel with thermal breaks handles the deep cold while automotive-grade coatings resist the high-altitude UV that bleaches and cracks lesser finishes within seasons.
The Wind Corridor: Cheyenne to Casper
The gap between the Rocky Mountain ranges creates a natural wind tunnel. Cheyenne records sustained winds above 30 mph for days at a time, with gusts exceeding 80 mph. This relentless wind drives fine dust into every seal and accelerates finish degradation. Steel frames with compression weatherstripping maintain positive seals against Wyoming's legendary wind.
The Bighorn Basin and Ranch Country
Cody, Sheridan, and the Bighorn Mountain communities combine ranch heritage with luxury development. Daily temperature swings of 50-plus degrees, winter cold below minus 20, and summer heat above 95 create thermal stress that warps wood and cracks rigid materials. Steel maintains integrity through these rapid transitions.
