Along with our heavy duty flush and stile & rail doors, Cross Aluminum can provide complete framing systems. Immediate frames, sidelites, and transoms are fabricated in standard and custom designs. Our philosophy of structural integrity is also applied to our framing systems.
  • Immediate frames around the doors are fabricated from a tubular "closed back" extrusion.
  • .125" minimum wall thickness.
  • Our own custom extruded doorstop: 3/16" thick x 1/2" high x 1-1/2" wide. This provides the strength needed to apply closer PA brackets or rim panic strikes without the need for additional expensive reinforcement.
  • New... 5/8" high doorstop. Better weathering and added security for uses when overhead concealed stops are called for in the hardware specification.
  • Heavy-duty insert sub-frame available for special applications.
  • Various frame extruded sizes available.
