When You Order A Pre-Hung Door With Hardware, Everything You Order Comes Fully Installed And Finished.
The photos shown in this section are designed to help you understand each piece of necessary hardware and its function in relation to its design elements.
Adjustable Tension Heavy Duty Hinge
As shown here the hinge is mounted to a 4"thick solid cedar door blade. This hinge can be used without setting the tension or the adjustable tension can be set to allow the door to self close at a speed selected by you. Tension adjustment tool included.
1" Inch Deep Rabbeted Stop
As shown here this type of stop is rabbeted by grooving or cutting a dado or kerf cut from the solid piece of 4"thick X 8"deep timber stock the door jamb or casing is made from. This method of building a door stop will guarantee that the structure of the door stop will never change over time and ensures a perfect seat for the door seals.
Most Door Manufacturers Design With Two Primary Things In Mind:
Keeping Their Profits High And How Well Each Piece Will Fit In The Shipping Box.
To many manufacturers pre-hung can mean that you or your builder will assemble your new door on site. Most hardware is shipped some assembly required. Also, with many manufacturers, in order to further cut labor cost they choose to use straight cut lumber and create this stop by simply stacking one board on top of another board and glueing, stapling, or nailing them together to form the door stop. As your door is opened and closed it bangs or hammers against this stop until it moves and allows the seals to leak. This method of creating a door stop has proven to be ineffective over time.
This Door Hardware Should Not Be Confused With Ordinary Hardware Normally Found On Most Production Or Semi- Custom Doors. This hardware has been specifically chosen to accommodate these ultimate custom doors and gates.
All Working Door Hardware Is Patina Color Matched To Your Decorative Hardware.
