A fire door stop system for retrofitting a fire door assembly so as to bring the assembly into compliance with fire safety codes. The fire door stop system has a profile strip includes at least one flange and intumescent seal that is attachable to a fire door frame. The fire door stop system further includes, as needed, edge protectors for a wood fire door, such as a horizontal edge protector, a vertical edge protector, and a bottom-edge extender, and a latch protector.

A door entryway system is disclosed. The door entryway system may have a door sweep capable of attachment to a bottom of a door panel and a threshold assembly. The threshold assembly may include a threshold substrate, an upwardly open sill channel on the substrate and a substantially rigid threshold cap biased upwardly, and vertically adjustable by rotating during interaction with the door sweep. The threshold cap and door sweep contact to form a sealing barrier when the door panel is in a closed position. The threshold assembly may also include a cap base formed separate from the threshold cap, the cap base at least partially positioned within the sill channel, the cap base supporting the threshold cap.

A pre-formed insert with stable dimensions for mechanical insertion into a hollow member and that reduces the Nusselt number and convection across the hollow member. The insert may be formed of a low heat conducting material like PVC and have extensions and internal voids that impede convection in the hollow and conduction through the insert. The inserts may be used in stiles, rails, heads and sills of aluminum windows and doors. In one embodiment an insert is received in an open hollow and may cooperate with an insert in a frame hollow to decrease convection at the head end of a sliding window or door. An insert may be placed within the hollow of a window or door beside a roller assembly.

The present invention is directed to a banded doorsill base for disposition between a pair of doorjambs of a door frame. The doorsill base includes an elongate central portion formed from a polymeric material having a first coefficient of linear expansion, and first and second wooden strips bonded to and extending along opposite sides of the central portion for constraining the central portion and preventing linear expansion thereof. The first and second strips are formed from a material having a second coefficient of linear expansion less than the first coefficient. The first and second strips substantially prevent linear expansion of the central portion. The present invention also relates to a method of forming the banded doorsill base, and to a doorsill assembly having a banded doorsill base.

A modular, shielded enclosure engineered to provide structural security for information technology (IT), data, and telecom equipment is provided. The enclosure is composed of individual periphery shields locked together to create an airtight, thermal resistant, fire resistant, waterproof, hermetically sealed facility. In addition, a series of penetration management devices (PMD) and a control panel can be deployed. The enclosures are infinitely configurable independent structures, and may be expanded, reduced, or relocated with ease to give end-users the flexibility needed to manage the ever-changing, highly specialized IT facility.

A door sweep comprises an elongated U-shaped body formed by a base and a pair of upright walls, the U-shaped body configured for being mounted to a bottom portion of a door. The elongated U-shaped body may float relative to the bottom portion of the door when installed. Biasing member(s) in the elongated U-shaped body may bias the downwardly base away from the bottom portion of the door. A fastener cover may be connected to one of the upright walls, with a hinge formed at a junction between the fastener cover and U-shaped body, for hinging the fastener cover. Hinges may be formed at a junction between the base and each of the upright walls, for hinging the upright walls.
摘要:
A high-performance fenestration system that includes a pressure chamber formed between longitudinally adjacent fenestration members. The pressure chamber is positioned on one side of the thermal break. The fenestration system can be configured so to create a continuous pressure chamber around the closed perimeter of the fenestration between the frame and sash. The resulting fenestration system enjoys significantly better water penetration resistance as compared with conventional high-performance doors and windows. Because of the positioning and structural configuration of the pressure chamber, the fenestration system can be configured to accept different hinge styles including Euro-style and American-style hinges without significant loss of performance. In addition, the system can accept American-style door hardware or Euro-style door hardware.

The threshold system includes a first support member secured to a walking surface, a second support member secured to the walking surface, and a thermal break joining the first support member and the second support member. A first ramp is removably coupled to the first support member. A second ramp is removably coupled to the second support member.
