WHAT'S INCLUDED? DETAIL & SPEC

Door Thickness: 2 1/4” 

Jamb

Jamb is included and packaged separately from the door.  Jamb is constructed with 12 gauge tube (above industry standard).   Polyurethane Foam Core is filled in the jamb for greater insulation.   

THRESHOLD

Steel threshold is included and it comes welded on the jamb.

In Swing Threshold:

• Thickness or height from the back interior side:  1 1/8”
• Thickness or height from the front exterior side: 1/2”
• Width or Depth:  6” 

 Out Swing Threshold:

• Thickness or height from the back interior side:  1 1/4”
• Thickness or height from the front exterior side: 1/2”
• Width or Depth:  6”

Brackets

Tabs come welded on jamb with pre drilled holes to allow for easy installation.

Hinges

Steel weld on bullet hinges with grease fittings come welded on jamb and door.  Allows customers to comfortably open our doors, but yet feel that quality with each and every use.  We use welded steel bullet hinge with copper crush washer instead of a ball bearing hinge because ball bearings are made out of stainless steel (hard material) and the hinges/doors are made out of steel (softer material) which over time causes the hinge to wear. With copper crush washers, the washer is the soft point and they are easily replaceable over time if needed.     

Glass

Tempered dual pane glass.  There is a spacer in between each 1/4” thick glass that makes the total thickness of the tempered dual pane glass 5/8”.  Front exterior side glass is the design glass style you chose and back interior side glass is clear.  Customers may swap back glass for design glass with special orders only.

Weather Stripping

Dual foam weather stripping is included and comes installed around the door frame.  Designs with operable glass will have dual sealing around the glass.  The purpose is to help reduce air infiltration and water penetration.  The dual sealing around the glass allows for weather stripping on both sides of the glass.  The seal around the door frames help to reduce the leakage of air and heat, resulting in a much more energy efficient product for our customers.   

Foam

Polyurethane foam core is filled in door frame and jamb to help reduce heat and cold weather transfer through the door.  It also helps to reduce outside sound transfer through the door. 

Rubber Door Sweeps

Door sweep located underneath the door is included and comes installed on door.  Bottom sweeps are used to help seal the gap at the bottom of your door to help prevent infiltration of sound, light, drafts, insects, moisture, smoke or fire.  The bottom sweep is a simple way to help in insulating a room, which provides cost and environmental benefits.

Flush Latch 

Included and pre-installed on all double door orders (Unless otherwise specified).  Our flush latch is installed on the upper and lower sections of the secondary door to allow both doors to open and operate while in the unlocked position.

Protection

Galvanize spray is used to help provide greater protection against corrosion for the iron base.  Primer and paint is applied after the galvanizing process.  During sustained periods of extreme cold weather, typically well below freezing of 25 degrees, is a good starting point to start looking further into our thermal break doors is to avoid condensation on the interior of the iron door.

Packaging

Carefully packaged, wrapped in foam, covered in cardboard, trunk wrapped and shipped with style from Los Angeles.

BORE HOLE - LOCK SPEC

If you choose to purchase your hardware/lockset from a third party vendor, please make sure to provide them with the following specifications to ensure that your desired lockset will be compatible with our doors.

• In stock single doors come with two pre drilled bore holes (one active lock needed) unless if otherwise specified.
• In stock double doors come with two pre drilled bore holes on each door (one active lock and one dummy lock needed) unless if otherwise specified.
• Locks purchased from Pinky’s Iron Doors do not come installed on door upon delivery or shipment.  The reason for this is that it may get damage during the delivery or shipment process.  The installer will need to install the lock after the door installation is complete.

Bore Hole: 

A bore hole is the doorknob hole  that is drilled on the face of the door with a hole saw.  The hole is drilled halfway through from each side.  The hole saw is also used to drill the cross bore otherwise known as the latch hole.  Both doorknob hole and latch holes come completed and drilled with every in stock order to help your installer install the lock at ease.

Center to Center:

The vertical distance measured between the center-points of the two bore holes.  In other words, it is the measurement from the middle of the top bore hole to the middle of the bottom bore hole.  This measurement is used to determine where a bore for the deadbolt is located above the bore for the latch.  This information is important to help our customers purchase the correct compatible lock if you choose to purchase them from an outside hardware store.  We have already done the homework for you by specifying the Pinky’s locks that are compatible with your door if you choose to purchase the locks from Pinky’s Iron Doors.

​​​

Back Set:

The backset is the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the 2-1/8” bore hole.  The back set measurement is important to help our customers purchase the correct compatible lock with the correct latch size.  We have already done the homework for you by specifying the Pinky’s locks that are compatible with your door if you choose to purchase the locks from Pinky’s Iron Doors.  Our customers do not have to purchase the locks from Pinky’s, you may purchase the locks from any local hardware store of your liking.

THERMAL BREAK DOOR THICKNESS

• Our thermally broken doors are 1/8” thicker than our regular iron doors.
• Thermal Break Door Thickness: 2 1/8”
• In stock Jamb: 6”

HOW OUR PRODUCTS ARE MEASURED

Our sizes are measured from outside of jamb to the outside of the jamb. For example, a 72” x 96” door listed on our website means that 72” is the width from outside to outside of jamb (not the actual width size of the door) and 96” is the height from outside of jamb to bottom of our built in steel threshold (not the actual height of the door).

We recommend the rough opening of the WIDTH to be 1/2” to 1” wider than the door size ordered to give the installer enough room to comfortably position the jamb into place and have enough room to make sure the jamb is leveled.

We recommend the rough opening of the HEIGHT to be 1/2” to 1” wider than the door size ordered to give the installer enough room to comfortably position the jamb into place and have enough room to make sure the jamb is leveled.

GLASS INFORMATION

What type of Glass do we use? 

5/8” Dual Pane Tempered Glass.

What is Tempered Glass? 

Tempered glass is defined as toughened glass that has been treated by heat or chemicals to increase its strength. Tempered glass is about four times stronger than "ordinary," or annealed, glass. And unlike annealed glass, which can shatter into jagged shards when broken, tempered glass fractures into small, relatively harmless pieces.  Tempered glass has many benefits and uses which makes it a popular glass used in many home and commercial building projects.

Benefits of Tempered Glass?

The most important benefit of tempered glass is safety. Tempered glass reduces the risk of injury due to its nature of breaking into small, circular pieces instead of sharp, jagged shards. 

Another benefit of tempered glass doors is ease of clean-up if they ever do break. As mentioned above, tempered glass breaks into small fragments instead of large, jagged pieces. This allows you to simply sweep up the glass instead of having to carefully pick up sharp pieces. The small glass pebbles of tempered glass can also be vacuumed to ensure all pieces have been cleaned up.  

A final benefit of tempered glass is its strength. Because the process of heating and applying chemicals strengthens the glass, tempered glass is an excellent choice for doors and any other projects where maximum durability is desirable.

What is Dual Pane Glass?

Insulating glass (IG), more commonly known as double glazing (or double-pane), consists of two glass panes separated to help reduce heat transfer across a part of the building envelope.

Benefits of Dual Pane Glass?

Double-paned doors have two sheets of glass in a door frame instead of just one. Between the glass panes is a small space to provide insulation. The small space between window panes is filled with insulating gas to further increase insulation.

What is the Glass Size?

Front exterior side glass is the design glass style you chose and back interior side glass is clear.  Each tempered dual pane glass is 1/4” thick.  Tempered dual pane glass (including the spacer in between the two glasses) is a total of 5/8” in thickness. The dual glass comes installed on the door.

What is Low-e Glass?

The “e” in Low-E stands for emissivity - the ability to emit radiant energy.  Low emissivity or Low E glass is a coating of microscopically thin metal layers deposited on a door glass surface to keep the heat on the same side of the glass from which it originated.

The Benefits of Low-E Glass

• Improved Energy Efficiency:  In addition to reducing heat loss during winter months, low-e glass also reduces heat gain during the air-conditioning season.
• Less UV Damage: By blocking most ultraviolet (UV) radiation, low-e glass helps protect fabrics, leather, carpeting, artwork and finishes from the fading effects of sunlight.
• Reduced Condensation: Condensation on door glass can be a problem during the heating season, as warm air comes into contact with cold door glass and gives up its moisture, forming water droplets on the glass surface. Low-e glass will minimize or eliminate this unwanted condensation.

FINISH

• We use automotive paint to coat our doors.
• Galvanize spray is used to help provide greater protection against corrosion for the iron base.  Primer and automotive paint is applied after the galvanizing spray process.

JAMB

• Jamb is included and packaged separately from the door. 
• Jamb is constructed with 12 gauge tube (above industry standard).   

Polyurethane Foam Core is filled in the jamb for greater insulation. 

Threshold: Steel threshold is included and it comes welded on the jamb.

In Swing Threshold:

• Thickness or height from the back interior side:  1 1/8”
• Thickness or height from the front exterior side: 1/2”
• Width or Depth:  6” 

Out Swing Threshold:

• Thickness or height from the back interior side:  1 1/4”
• Thickness or height from the front exterior side: 1/2”
• Width or Depth:  6”

Brackets:  Tabs come welded on jamb with pre drilled holes to allow for easy installation.

Hinges: Steel weld on bullet hinges with grease fittings come welded on jamb and door.  Allows customers to comfortably open our doors, but yet feel that quality with each and every use.  We use welded steel bullet hinge with copper crush washer instead of a ball bearing hinge because ball bearings are made out of stainless steel (hard material) and the hinges/doors are made out of steel (softer material) which over time causes the hinge to wear. With copper crush washers, the washer is the soft point and they are easily replaceable over time if needed.

WHICH LOCK SET DO I NEED?

If you are ordering a single door - you only need (1) Active Lock.

If you are ordering a double door - you need (1) Active Lock & (1) Dummy Lock. 

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN ACTIVE LOCK AND A DUMMY LOCK?

Double Doors

• Requires an Active lock, which is your locking hardware, to be installed on your active or door used most often. 
• Requires a Dummy lock,  which has no mechanical latch mechanism, to be installed on the secondary door.
• Dummy locks do not function - the main purpose of a dummy lock is for esthetics purposes only.

Single Doors

• Requires an Active lock only.
