DL-EMB Series Embossed Panel doors are specified to Levels 1-3 extra heavy-duty 16 gauge and 3/16" hinge thread engagement. Premium door construction combines pan-style panels with optional lock-side bevel, and full height center seam projection welded edges. Tests prove the DL Series Embossed door has a high resistance to impacts, low thermal conductivity and high STC ratings.
Available in 18 gauge (limited 16 gauge) 1-, 2-, 4-, 6-, and 2-panel high definition designs. The 6-panel EG provides two visible panels with glass (by others). Sunburst design glass cutout with four visible panels also available.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Strength, durability and ease of installation
Polystyrene core system, laminated to both steel faces, enhancing the structural integrity of the whole door and providing the benefit of enhanced thermal performance (STC 35 / U=0.45 / R=2.18 per ASTM 1363)
Optional STC 40 available on 6-panel design
Square edge design allows for non-handed inventory control in local distribution. Optional lock edge bevel 1/8" over 2" (~3˚)
Hinge and lock edges are reinforced with continuous 16 gauge steel channel the full height of the door, welded at a max 5" OC (optional 10 gauge hinge and 14 gauge lock channel with DE Series)
Universal standard/heavy weight hinges are used with hinge fillers to allow for easy modification from heavy to standard weight hinge preps
Standard visible edges may be filled seamless, intermittently stitch welded and filled, or continuously welded and filled
Top flush and bottom inverted channels provide excellent door stability with 16 gauge steel channels, projection welded at a max 2-1/2" OC
16 gauge mortise or cylindrical lock reinforcements are of an integral type in accordance with ANSI A115 standards
