Iron doors are a beautiful, high-end feature—but only when the finish is done correctly.
Why Powder-Coated Iron Doors Fail in Arkansas
Most iron doors are factory-finished with a powder coating, which works well for shipping and installation—but not for long-term exposure to Arkansas weather.
In our climate:
Heat causes expansion and contraction
Humidity seeps beneath the coating
Moisture becomes trapped against the metal
Once this happens, the powder coat begins to:
Crack
Peel
Bubble
Pop off in sheets
Allow rust to form underneath
At that point, the door doesn’t just look bad—the metal itself is at risk.
This is one of the most common calls we receive as a trusted local painting company.
A Better, More Durable Finish for Iron Doors
At Brush & Pride Painting, we use a professional painted finish specifically suited for exterior iron doors—similar in performance to an automotive-grade coating system.
Unlike powder coating, our process:
Allows the metal to breathe
Seals and protects against moisture intrusion
Bonds properly to iron surfaces
Resists cracking and peeling
Withstands Arkansas heat and humidity
Is easier to maintain and repair over time
When done correctly, a painted iron door finish lasts significantly longer than factory powder coating in our region.

Iron Door Painting & Refinishing – Frequently Asked Questions
Why do iron doors start peeling or rusting so quickly in Arkansas?
Most iron doors are finished at the factory with a powder coating, which is durable for shipping and installation but not ideal for Arkansas’s heat and humidity. Once moisture gets underneath the coating, it becomes trapped against the metal, leading to cracking, peeling, bubbling, and eventually rust. Arkansas’s climate accelerates this process.
Is painting an iron door better than powder coating?
In Arkansas, yes. A professionally applied painted finish is often more durable than powder coating for iron doors exposed to heat, sun, and humidity. High-quality painted systems bond better to the metal, allow for controlled moisture movement, and are easier to maintain and repair over time.
What kind of paint is best for iron doors?
Iron doors require specialty primers and exterior-grade coatings designed specifically for metal. At Brush & Pride Painting, we use high-performance systems similar to automotive-style finishes, which provide superior adhesion, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability.
Can you paint over an existing powder-coated iron door?
Yes—but only with proper preparation. Failing powder coat must be removed, the surface must be properly sanded, cleaned, and treated, and the correct bonding primers must be applied. Skipping these steps will cause the new finish to fail prematurely.
How long does iron door painting or refinishing last?
When done correctly with proper prep and premium coatings, a painted iron door finish can last many years longer than factory powder coating in Arkansas conditions. Regular maintenance and prompt touch-ups can extend its lifespan even further.
Do I need to replace my iron door if it’s peeling or rusting?
Not necessarily. In many cases, professional iron door refinishing can restore the appearance and protect the door without replacement. If the structure of the door is sound, refinishing is often a cost-effective alternative to buying a new door.
How long does the iron door refinishing process take?
Project timelines vary based on the condition of the door, but most iron door painting projects can be completed within a few days, including prep, coating, and curing time. We’ll provide a clear timeline before work begins.
