ASSA ABLOY, Security Doors, a division of ASSA ABLOY, the door opening product company, has introduced a new jointing system and adjustable packers for all its steel doorframes.
The mitre-jointed frame can be locked together without the need for extra fixings, reducing time and effort on site for an installer, the makers say.
The frames are supplied as knock down structures, usually in three pieces, so are easier to offload, move around site and store; reducing the possibility of damage, it’s claimed. Also, the frames take up less space on delivery vehicles, lowering transport costs.
The mechanical mitre-joints also offer a more aesthetically pleasing solution to typical, less attractive, butt jointed alternatives, according to the company.
Integral adjustable packers are now also built into all Powershield single and double rebate frames, assisting installers with alignment and positioning, as well as ensuring a secure fixing.
Nigel Cronin, Sales Manager at ASSA ABLOY, Security Doors, said: “Our team of designers are continuously developing product innovations, with the intention of making life easier for installers.
“We are confident that when our doorframes are specified they will reduce problems on site, helping projects to be delivered on time.
“Most doorframes come with independent packers that can be fiddly to install, ASSA ABLOY, Security Doors’ inbuilt packers allow frame profiles to be easily squared up. Our mechanically fixed doorframes and adjustable packers are just the latest examples of how our products can increase the speed of installation.”
The adjustable packers are available for fire and non-fire rated doors and fully mitered welded frames are also available for clean room applications or client preferred detail.
