Bulkheads and Cellar Doors

Superior Basement Solutions has been installing and replacing bulkheads and fixing leaky cellar door issues in CT & RI.

Whether you call it a cellar door or a bulkhead door, one thing is certain; if your door is old and leaky, your basement is not as dry or as warm as it should be.  Water and moisture can leak in through the bulkhead through a variety of different access points.

Today’s bulkhead cellar doors are not like those from years ago.  Modern, newer designed and crafted bulkheads are:

• Easy to Operate: Smooth, easy, one-hand operation and prevents the doors from slamming closed.
• Durable: Sherwin Williams primer provides a durable base for finish paint – paint any color you want!
• Weather-tight:  Sheds water, keeps area dry and free of material. Construction sheds water and prevents binding due to ice and snow.
• Secure:  Slide bolt lock and internal mounting flanges make your home safe and secure. Optional keyed lock kit available for exterior access.
• Rugged: Heavy gauge steel and sturdy concealed hinges, protected from the weather ensure all-season operation and lasting service.
• Code-Compliant:  Satisfies IRC 2012 Building code requirements for emergency egress in finished basement areas.
