This project was a milestone for Lusso Design—it marked our first real experience working on a multi-residential building. We were tasked with installing two custom steel entry doors at a newly built multiplex in Toronto, and while the doors themselves seemed straightforward, the process turned into a great learning experience.

This project holds a bit of a special place in my memory—it’s one of the last door insert jobs I completed before taking a break from that part of the business. At this point, full door replacements make up 99% of my work, but every once in a while, an insert project reminds me of
