TRIM STRUCTURE FOR A DOOR
A trim structure intended on one hand to receive a door, in particular an internal door, and on the other hand to be joined to a partition. The structure includes two lateral wails facing one another and spaced apart by a thickness. The thickness being adjusted with respect to the thickness of the partition such the lateral walls form an external surface that is flush with the external surface of the partition. when the structure is joined to the partition. A transverse end wall connects the two lateral walls. The transverse end wall includes a planar surface that is configured to butt up against the thickness of a vertical edge face of the door and a projecting element (15) forming a bearing surface for the door. The walls being formed from at least one composite panel, the panel comprising a central layer sandwiched between two facing layers.
INTERNAL WALL END APPARATUS
Apparatus (50) for fitting to an end of an internal wall, said apparatus (50) including a web portion (52) and a pair of legs (61, 63) extending from the web portion (52) in the same direction; at least one of the legs (61) in said pair of legs (61, 63) having a recess (56) that extends into a space formed by the web portion (52) and each of said legs (61, 63) such that a shadow line is created by the recess (56) near to the wall end in the overall finish of said wall.
Door assembly
A door assembly and a frame member for a door assembly. The door assembly may include at least one door panel and a door frame having a plurality of frame members including a header and a pair of side jambs. The invention may also be considered a frame member including a storage compartment. The frame member may include a core; and a top piece adjoining the core to form a structural member. The core and the top piece may be a composite of cellulosic material and at least one other material. The top piece may be a two-piece top piece and may include hollow cavities. Also disclosed are door jamb frame members and mullion frame members.
DOOR FRAME COVER
Door frame cover overlay systems, devices, and methods are shown and described. A frame cover overlay for an existing door frame may include a base and a removable top. The cover overlay may be secured to the existing door frame to provide protection against further damage.
Framing Bracket And Method Of Cladding Building Walls
A system, device and method of framing an opening, such as a window, in a clad façade 12 structure to align the window units 22 to be positioned adjustably so that the exterior sight lines align the windows without custom fabrication of the clad façade. This allows irregular variations in the original building structure to be eliminated by a perfectly aligned façade. A frame 20 has wide flanges 40 to allow the defined inner box frame area 34 to be positioned and then the frame can be shimmed to that position. Sections of frame 20 are joined by an angled member 54 with flat portion which are received in slots 56 in frame sections at their edges.
Integrated door framing system
An integrated door framing system is provided including a first L-shaped piece and a second L-shaped piece which can be assembled to form a U-shaped body that fits over a wall edge facing a wall opening formed for installing a door or window therewithin. The U-shaped body provides a complete, integrated door frame, casing, and molding assembly using a reduced and easy-to-assemble set of parts.
Jamb assembly for a door frame
A jamb assembly for a door frame includes an elongate jamb channel defining an interior space, an elongate cap member having a pair of spaced apart opposing in-turned portions, and a clip for securing the cap member to the jamb channel. The clip includes a base, a pair of opposed spaced apart resilient tabs extending from the base, and a pair of spaced apart retaining portions extending from the base, each retaining portion comprising a proximate resilient portion and a distal wing portion. When the base is located in the interior space, the tabs abut ridges that extend partially into the interior space, and the resilient portions are biased to engage the ridges. The resilient portions of the clip are configured to deform to allow the wing portions to pass between in-turned portions of the cap member and are biased to engage the in-turned portions.

Durable entryway threshold
Disclosed is a threshold assembly that is durable and resistant to damage from mechanical stress and ultraviolet light exposure, thermally insulating, aesthetically pleasing, and adjustable to accommodate varying door heights and entryway dimensions and that can also be manufactured in a cost effective manner. The threshold includes base portion having a front face that accommodates an extender, a top surface, a channel, a nose wall, and an optional sizing notch that allows the threshold to be cut to varying entryway widths. The threshold further includes a deck cover secured about the base portion and a cap disposed within the base channel. An adjustment screw is disposed within the cap and used to vary the height of the threshold assembly to create an appropriate fit to an associated door. The deck cover or other components can be made of a durable coextruded material with impact or other modifiers.
