Freeway Building Materials has thousands of doors in stock, from years of Los Angeles-area demolition projects. Wood, metal glass and everything in between, ranging from authentic "turn-of-the-century" to Art Deco to 1950's to recent/modern. You can't find quality and variety like this at Home Depot!
Freeway Building Materials has iron and steel gates, fencing, stairways and doors for residential and commercial applications from Los Angeles-area demolition projects. Our inventory includes hundreds of feet of many types of matching fencing, to unique artisan iron fixtures. The advantage of purchasing used ironworks is both quality and price.
From years of Los Angeles-area demolition projects, we have found hundreds of unusual items that can only have come from here!

The owner is just ridiculous. Even if he got pretty good collection，it doesn't make any sense. He doesn't allow others to search what they need or even stay their for a while to check around. However，he doesn't communicate or listen either. I’m not even sure if he is seriously running this business.

This is a classic salvage yard with unique finds hidden everywhere (don't be afraid to dive in). You'll have to DIY rehab almost anything you find here but there are plenty of gems if you don't mind hunting around. The place always looks closed (and sometimes the owner -- who is super nice btw -- is seemingly nowhere to be found) but don't let looks fool you. Watch out for all the cats.
