Commercial Entrance Fire Rated Astragal Designed To Mount To The Center Of A Commercial Door Pair
Commercial doors are every where. When it comes to commercial doors there are three main types, hollow metal, solid core wood, and storefront aluminum. Each commercial door is utilized for different purposes. For instance, hollow metal doors are used for fire exit doors and rear building security doors, commercial wood doors are utilized for interior door applications, and storefront aluminum doors are used for the front entrance doors to the commercial building. No matter the commercial door type, when it comes to a door pair configuration, they all face the same problem, which is the gap between the two door panels. The All American door astragal solves this issue. This easy to use door astragal kit is designed to surface mount to the face of the two door panels. The aluminum holders are adjustable and feature a thick brush allowing the user to adjust the seal. The heavy duty brush is designed for a firm seal between the doors, allowing no debris, wind draft, or pests to penetrate into the building. The brush is engineered to fit tightly into the aluminum holder, allowing the brush to not fall out even in the highest traffic commercial door applications.
Designed For Commercial Hollow Metal Steel, Storefront Aluminum, or Solid Core Wood Door Pairs
The heavy duty design of the All American door astragal will hold up in any commercial door application including insulated hollow metal steel door pairs, aluminum storefront door pairs, and solid core wood door pairs. The majority of door astragals on the market are only designed for residential use with extremely low traffic, resulting in the brush falling out within a week of use if installed on any commercial door. The All American door astragal is made for hollow metal doors and will last for years on the highest traffic commercial doors.
Retrofitting An Astragal On A Commercial Door Pair
If your hollow metal steel door pair or commercial wood door pair has a gap between the two doors, then this All American Astragal is perfect for your application. It is important to note that this product can be installed on any commercial steel door pair or solid core wood door pair, however some cutting of the astragal's aluminum door holder may be necessary if your commercial door has door hardware that is very close to the leading edge of the door. For example, some commercial doors are outfitted with cylindrical locks that have an unusually large rose trim (round finish plate behind the lever) which can have a footprint that is almost at the edge of the door. In these door applications, the All American door astragal can still be surface mounted to the face of the door, but some cutting of the astragal aluminum holder will need to be completed in order to fit it around the oversized lock trim. Likewise trimming of the astragal door holder may also be necessary if your steel door had any kind of special prep with locking hardware very close to the edge of the door.
