Door Frame Jamb Depth
The door frame is manufactured from 16 gauge steel and is designed to butt directly against the wall thickness. We offer a door frame jamb depth for all of the building code compliant wall types:
- 5-3/4" Jamb Depth (Most Common) - Designed to butt against a wall with an overall thickness greater than 5-3/4"
- 4-3/4" Jamb Depth - Designed to butt against a wall with an overall thickness greater than 4-3/4"
- 7-3/4" Jamb Depth - Designed to butt against a wall with an overall thickness greater than 7-3/4"
- 8-1/4" Jamb Depth - Designed to butt against a wall with an overall thickness greater than 8-1/4"
Unsure Of What Jamb Depth You Need?
Exterior door frames are always installed butted against the wall, and held to the outside of the building. Most exterior walls are wider than 5-3/4 inches, therefore the most common exterior door frame jamb depth used is the 5-3/4" jamb depth. In any scenario, since the door frame is butted against the wall, you will want to make sure that the door frame jamb depth is less than that of the overall wall thickness.

Optional Commercial Door Closer
A commercial door closer is a hydraulic device that regulates the closing speed of the door and will automatically close the door after it has been used. Commercial door closers help lengthen the life of your commercial metal door and also act as a safety device preventing the door from slamming closed on any one. As the manufacturer it is recommended to include the door closer.
Optional Door Threshold
A door threshold is an aluminum bottom plate designed to span across the foot of the doorway. It provides a seal and barrier under the door to prevent water, insects, and other debris from entering under the door way. As the manufacturer it is recommended to include the door threshold.
Optional Door Sweep
A door sweep is a weatherstripping device designed to mount to the bottom of the door. It is available with nylon bristles or a vinyl gasket and is used to seal the gap between the bottom of the door and the threshold. Weatherstripping plays an important role in improving your building's energy efficiency as well as pest control. As the manufacturer it is recommended to include a door sweep.
Optional Door Frame Weather Stripping
Door frame weather stripping is available as either a stick on gasket or a screw mounted bulb gasket. Both types are designed to eliminate the gap between the door and frame, providing your building with better energy efficiency. As the manufacturer it is recommended to include some form of door frame weather stripping.
Optional Commercial Door Stop
If your metal door is going to be installed in a location where the door can hit the wall when it is fully open, then a wall stop or floor stop is recommended. Door stops help prevent damage to your wall and door. Each time a door slams open against the wall, the impact travels through the door, hardware, and into the frame. This can cause the frame and door to bend as well as damage to the hardware.
Optional Door Holder
A kick down door holder or crash chain door holder are also available which allows the user to hold the door open. This option is great for storerooms or closet doors where pedestrians are constantly restocking or moving in and out of the room.
Optional Fire Label
If the commercial door is going to be installed on a fire wall, we offer a variety of fire ratings to choose from up to 3 hours.
