Many architects and designers prefer custom arched top doors for their aesthetic appeal. These doors commonly appear in historic churches, upscale antique restaurants, and luxury apartments. However, the entry doors usually require the self-closing feature for public safety, especially for fire-rated purposes. So what could be the best fit if it’s not the door closers for arched doors?
