Frame
Frames are pressed from Galvanised* steel to form a single rebated profile. Profiled headers form a smooth butt joint with the full height vertical posts and are joined together utilising strong M8 bolts to provide positive rigidity. The special fast fit frame is able to compensate for most irregularities in the opening with 8no threaded fixing adjusters per doorset. They permit a tolerance of up to 18mm on each side of the door. Shims and packers are not necessary making an extremely secure fix. Frames can be insulated if required.
Thresholds
DDA compliant 2mm stainless steel threshold bolted into the vertical frame posts. Available in outward opening, inward opening and ramped.
Seal
For optimum weather, thermal and acoustic performance, a EPDM seal is bonded into the frame rebate to ensure effective sealing of the door/frame gap.
