A detention hollow metal product is a heavy-duty steel product specifically designed for high-security environments such as correctional facilities, detention centers, prisons, jails, and behavioral health facilities. Unlike standard commercial steel products, detention hollow metal is built with to meet or exceed ASTM 1450 testing and made with reinforced steel construction, heavy-duty internal components, and specialized hardware to withstand
forced entry, abuse, and frequent use.

The biggest difference between a detention door and a standard hollow metal door is the level of security (ASTM 1450) and durability they are designed to provide. A standard hollow metal door is commonly used in offices, schools, hospitals, and other commercial buildings where everyday security is sufficient. These doors are built for general use and are not intended to withstand repeated impact or attempted forced entry. A detention door, on the other hand, is engineered for high-security environments such as correctional facilities, jails, prisons, and behavioral health centers. Detention doors are manufactured with thicker steel, reinforced welds, heavy-duty frames, detention-grade hardware, and tamper-resistant components designed to resist abuse, vandalism, and escape attempts.
