Steel doors provide the kind of energy efficiency that can really contribute to lower home heating and cooling costs. Each door carries an R-15 insulating value. That's five times better than wood doors and up to twice the R-value of many competitive steel doors. |
|
|
Polyurethane Core Our solid polyurethane core provides an R-15 insulating value for energy efficiency that far outpaces wood doors. |
 |
|
Interlocking Steel Edge Exclusive interlocking steel edge tightly locks skins together; prevents bowing and warping. Thermal Break Gilkey steel edge doors have a true thermal break. The vinyl extrusion locks the steel skins together, but separates the exterior skin from the interior skin, eliminating the transfer of heat or cold through the steel skins. |
|
|
Hinge Reinforcement The 12-gauge plate riveted inside each door adds extra strength to the hinge area. Hinges are applied with machine screws for a more positive anchor. |
 |
|
Reinforced Lockset Preparation Provides a rigid base for locksets, and helps discourage intruders. |
 |
|
Triple Contact Bottom Sweep Twin compression tubes and an extruded vinyl "blade" mate with the threshold to seal the door bottom. Helps eliminate drafts, leaks and ice build-up. |
 |
|
Perimeter Weatherstripping A continuous strip of compressible foam seals the top and sides of the door with the frame, helping to prevent air loss around the door. |
