Premium Quality Architectural Storefront Door Systems Manufactured In USA
The Ranger HD Medium Stile architectural aluminum storefront entrance systemis designed for installation in exterior wood stud wall openings used in commercial offices, retail buildings, restaurants, medical facilities, churches, mixed-use developments, and other light commercial construction projects.
Designed for moderate to heavy pedestrian traffic and increased abuse environments, the Ranger HD Medium Stile door features 3-1/2-inch vertical stiles, a 3-1/4-inch top rail, and a 10-inch ADA bottom rail. Its wider aluminum rails provide increased rigidity, improved hardware support, and greater resistance to twisting, flexing, and daily commercial abuse.
The door is constructed from 6063 architectural aluminum with reinforced corner blocks and welded construction for increased strength and dependable commercial performance.
This complete exterior entrance package includes a heavy-duty closed-back aluminum frame, factory pre-glazed insulated tempered safety glass, Grade 1 commercial hardware, an ADA lock indicator, an adjustable commercial hydraulic door closer, full-perimeter pile weather seals, a low-profile threshold, and a commercial bottom sweep.
The closed-back storefront frame is intended to be securely anchored to a properly reinforced wood-framed rough opening. The surrounding wall assembly may include structural wood studs, engineered wood framing, exterior sheathing, a weather-resistive barrier, continuous insulation, flashing, and the selected exterior cladding system.
Made in the USA with an approximate 3–4 week production time.
The Ranger HD Medium Stile storefront entrance is designed for exterior commercial wall assemblies where a standard 2-inch narrow stile door may not provide enough strength for the expected traffic level, hardware requirements, or operating environment.
The 3-1/2-inch vertical stiles provide additional aluminum around the lock, pivots, hinges, closer, and other operating hardware. This creates a stronger and more rigid door assembly that is better suited for frequent operation and increased physical abuse.
A 3-1/4-inch top rail provides increased support at the top of the door, while the standard 10-inch bottom rail strengthens the lower portion of the door and provides a smooth lower surface for accessibility applications.
The included heavy-duty closed-back aluminum frame is designed to be installed into a properly framed and reinforced exterior wood stud rough opening. Structural jamb framing, headers, blocking, anchors, fasteners, flashing, and perimeter sealants must be selected according to the project design and installation conditions.
The result is a durable architectural aluminum entrance that maintains the clean appearance of a commercial glass storefront while providing increased strength for demanding exterior commercial applications.
Exterior wood stud construction is commonly used in light commercial, mixed-use, retail, office, restaurant, and residential-commercial buildings. Wood framing provides a versatile wall system that can accommodate many exterior finishes, insulation packages, and architectural designs.
For this application, the storefront frame is installed within a properly reinforced wood-framed rough opening. The framing around the entrance must be designed to support the storefront frame, door weight, closer forces, operating loads, wind loads, and repeated use of the entrance.
Typical exterior wood stud wall assemblies may include:
Wood framing, structural reinforcement, sheathing, building wrap, flashing, insulation, waterproofing, and exterior cladding are not included with the storefront entrance package unless specifically stated.
The door arrives welded, pre-glazed, and prepared for the selected hardware. The closed-back frame ships knocked down and must be assembled and installed at the job site.
Structural wood framing, framing reinforcement, sheathing, flashing, waterproofing, perimeter sealant, shims, and wall-construction fasteners are supplied by the installer unless specifically stated otherwise.
Ranger HD storefront entrances are available in Narrow Stile, Medium Stile, and Wide Stile configurations. The proper stile width should be selected based on the expected pedestrian traffic, abuse level, hardware requirements, and building application.
| Feature | Narrow Stile | Medium Stile | Wide Stile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vertical Stile Width | 2 inches | 3-1/2 inches | 5 inches |
| Top Rail Height | Standard narrow stile top rail | 3-1/4 inches | 5-1/8 inches |
| Bottom Rail Height | 10 inches | 10 inches | 10 inches |
| Traffic Level | Standard traffic | Moderate to heavy traffic | Heavy traffic |
| Abuse Level | Standard abuse environments | Moderate to increased abuse environments | Heavy abuse environments |
| Appearance | Slim architectural appearance with maximum glass area | Balanced appearance with increased strength | Substantial appearance with maximum rail strength |
| Hardware Support | Standard commercial hardware | Increased support for locks, hinges, pivots, closers, and access-control hardware | Maximum support for demanding commercial hardware applications |
| Typical Applications | Retail stores, offices, restaurants, and standard commercial entrances | Busy retail stores, office buildings, medical facilities, churches, municipal buildings, industrial facilities, and other demanding commercial entrances | Institutions, schools, universities, government buildings, transportation facilities, and other heavy-traffic or heavy-abuse environments |
| Recommended Use | Applications where a slim profile and standard commercial durability are preferred | Applications requiring more strength than a narrow stile door without the larger profile of a wide stile door | Applications requiring maximum durability and resistance to heavy traffic and abuse |
The Medium Stile configuration provides an excellent balance between the slim appearance of a Narrow Stile door and the maximum strength of a Wide Stile door.
A Medium Stile storefront door is an excellent choice when a commercial entrance requires more strength than a traditional narrow stile door but does not require the larger rails of a wide stile institutional entrance.
The Ranger HD Medium Stile storefront entrance is recommended for exterior wood-framed commercial buildings where frequent use, increased traffic, weather exposure, or additional abuse resistance is expected.
For institutions, schools, universities, government buildings, transportation facilities, and other applications exposed to consistently heavy traffic or heavy abuse, consider the Ranger HD Wide Stile entrance with5-inch vertical stiles and a5-1/8-inch top rail.
Select the appropriate Ranger HD configuration for the required wall assembly, glass package, hanging method, hardware, handing, and entrance design.

Gary was very helpful from the first and communicated with me on his on time. He was in touch with me for several days and was very helpful finding the part I needed although I did not have a picture of the part. Gary went way above what was expected in trying to find the part I needed. When we need more parts for our church doors I will definitely call Gary.
