Frames.
FRAMES
Hollow metal door frames add durability and structural superiority. 

Just like hollow metal doors, hollow metal door frames come in various styles and designs that facilitate ease of mounting in a variety of situations. Depending on your needs and the type, some frames can be installed within minutes and/or relocated without frame damage. There is a double egress frame series, flush frames that can be installed in either an interior or exterior location, and a stainless steel frame that features exceptional performance, yet they are also designed to be aesthetically good looking too.

Frames come in stainless steel, lead-lined (x-ray), A60 galvannealed steel, or G90 galvanized steel. For cold-climate applications consider kerfed frames for weatherstripping and thermal break frames. 

​Frames are available in a variety of gauges of steel from 12-16 gauge being our standard. Frames are available for 1 3/8" - 2" thick doors.  

Standard frames are available as welded or knock down (KD). On welded-up frames, all welded joints are ground smooth and touched-up with primer paint to provide a seamless look.

Hinge jambs are prepared and reinforced to receive 3 standard weight 41⁄2" x 41⁄2" (114 mm x 114 mm) butt hinges. Hinge reinforcements can easily be converted to accommodate heavy weight hinges. Strike jambs are prepared and reinforced to receive one standard 47⁄8" (124 mm) strike in accordance to ANSI A115.1. Hinge and strike jambs can be provided with the required anchors that fit your construction needs. No anchors or anchor prep needed for Knock-Down Drywall Frames.
