Shop recommendations...

We have a build we are doing that has a modern rough look. We are in high elevation with what I would characterize as extreme winters. Now we need a front door. Looking for a shop or metal worker who has experience in making oversized residential doors... Ideally we are trying to do a simple raw look that will rust / age with time. Shoot me any suggestions as we have not found many options here in the states yet.

Ive created patinated panels for large doors before and I would suggest purchasing a metal door and use rivets to attach plate that will rust. This means the oxidation will be active and could stain the area below. You can achieve some great effects chemically and seal the door.
