A welded steel door including a pan having a bottom surface forming a first face of the door and flanges extending on opposite edges thereof forming opposite side edges of the door, the flanges having a lid engaging surface spaced from the bottom surface, a lid having a top surface forming a second face of the door opposite the first face, opposite edges of the top surface each having a hem mated with a respective lid engaging surface of each flange, the hem including a portion of the top surface folded back on itself, and a plurality of welds securing the lid to the pan. The welds extend between the portion of the top surface of the lid folded back on itself of each hem and the respective lid engaging surface of each flange and are thereby concealed.

An apparatus for a garage door panel which includes a formed metal section with at least one decorative portion on the front surface and having a rear surface. The formed metal section including a top portion with a male tongue and a bottom portion with a female groove. The garage door panel includes an insert combination of a polystyrene section and twin wall polypropylene section. The rear surface of the formed metal section is spray coated with a combination isocyanate and polyol resin which combines to form as hardened polyurethane foam section. The front surface of the polystyrene section is retained against the polyurethane foam section and the rear surface of the twin wall polypropylene serves as the rear surface of the garage door panel. Two metal stiles are respectively affixed at the left or first end and the right or second end.

An elevator door leaf formed by a front panel and a rear panel separated from each other but fitted into each other at their longitudinal edges by hemming or seaming, determining a space between the front panel and rear panel that is occupied by an expandable and hardenable foam that is injected under pressure into said space, such that it facilitates the attachment between at least two of the paired longitudinal edges created by fitting the front and rear panels together.

A sound damping door system having a door frame, a compression seal, a door slab, a bottom seal, and a concealed hinge assembly. The door frame includes male and female components adapted to engage each other in a rough door opening between first and second wall faces; and at least one isolation gasket adapted to be disposed between the male and female components. The compression seal is mounted to the door frame. The door slab includes an outer skin; an arched constrainment sheet inside the outer skin; a damping fill material inside the outer skin; and an acoustic insert inside the outer skin. The bottom seal is mounted to a bottom surface of the door slab such that the bottom seal is permitted to move relative to the door slab.

A sanitary installation is described that comprises at least one sanitary space, which can be closed, and whose pivot door is configured as a double-leaf angled door having a leaf composed of a material that is preferably transparent over its full area and having a leaf composed of an opaque material.

A door includes a single panel folded to form a latch face and first and second main faces of the door. The door preferably further includes edge tabs folded to form upper, lower and hinge faces of the door. The panel is preferably a composite panel including an inner metal sheet, an outer metal sheet, and a plastics core material between the metal sheets.

A sound proofing window system for use with an acoustic door is disclosed. The system includes 2 fully decoupled acoustic reveal formed between 2 acoustic windows, thereby providing a higher level of sound proofing than is achievable with existing art. A decoupled acoustic reveal means that there is no path of contact between the two acoustic windows that is unbroken by soundproofing material. Further, the acoustic windows may be positioned fully or partially outside the thickness of the door to increase the air gap. Prior art systems may attempt to partially decouple the acoustic reveal. A windowed standard 1.75 inch acoustic door according to the present invention provides an STC rating of 56-57, which is far superior to the 35-47 STC rating comparable prior art. The STC rating of the present invention on a 5 inch thick door is estimated at 64 compared to 54 using conventional technology.

An exemplary door includes a door body and a light assembly. The door body includes a first door panel defining a first panel opening, a second door panel defining a second panel opening, and an internal cavity. The area of the first panel is greater than the area of the second panel opening. The light assembly includes a first trim, a second trim, and an impact-resistant pane positioned in the door cavity. The first trim includes an outer frame coupled to the first door panel and an inner frame positioned in the internal cavity. The pane has an area greater than the area of the second panel opening area, and includes an first outer layer adhered to the inner frame of the first trim, a second outer layer adhered to the door body, and at least one intermediate layer.

A multi-layered film including a polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-based base layer containing a plasticizer and including a surface layer containing a UV stabilizer that is adhesively bonded to the base layer, wherein an acrylate-based PVC-free copolymer is used as a plasticizer in the base layer.

A firewall access door includes a rectangular door frame with a rectangular door coupled there to by at least one door hinge. The door consists of a first rectangular pan member and a decorative gypsum wall panel mated together. The door further includes a second rectangular pan member having a flat surface with opposite side walls extending perpendicular from a flat surface of the second rectangular pan member. The side walls of the second rectangular pan member have flanges for mounting to a back surface of the first pan member opposite the gypsum panel and adjacent the side walls of the first rectangular pan member. The second pan member spans the back of the first rectangular pan member and forms an air gap between the flat surface and the back of the rectangular pan member.
