The Little Things

    They say, “It’s the little things that count.” Whoever “they” are, is that true? Well, one of the most expensive and fastest street legal cars made, the Bugatti Veyron, which only costs $2.4 mil (pocket change) and will reach speeds of 252 mph. This car relies heavily on the “little things” 17 to be exact. That is 17 titanium bolts that hold the front part of the cars frame to the back section of the frame. Wow, you say 17 bolts! That’s right 17 bolts! Now notice I didn’t just say bolts, I said titanium bolts not the type you run down to the local hardware store and grab, no custom titanium bolts each one about $100.
    Evidently the manufacturers at Bugatti think the little things count and are willing to hurl people down the road at 252 mph trusting in those 17 “little thing”. I guess the point we're trying to make is that the little things do matter and we here at EMS think that the smallest part of our doors should be the same high quality as the biggest and most visible. That’s why our hinges, handles, latches, brackets, nuts, bolts, screws and washers are all standard stainless steel. Even our install kits come with stainless steel all-tread and lags for our doors. Granted we are not going to ride our door down the road at 252 mph although our sliders are pretty quick. We do care about our product lasting and looking like new despite some of the worst conditions.
    In our mind there is nothing worse than a stainless steel door with a rust streak down its panel face from the galvanized or steel bolt that the door is hanging on. Or, better yet that bolt or screw fails because of corrosion and the door fails. Not to mention how excited the food inspectors are to get out their red tags and note books when they see corrosion or places for bacteria to grow. So, why not eliminate the problem with the proper hardware. In fact, all of our doors come standard with this all stainless steel hardware package.
    I think that says it all if a manufacturer is not willing to cut costs or quality on the “little things”, that’s when you know that our doors are of the highest quality. So, from our point of view it’s all about the “little things” and that’s why EMS Insulated doors are the requested door by more end users.
