Primer

HMF Express supplies a grey primer finish on all doors and frames as its standard.  The finish has been tested and conforms with testing standards for adhesion (ASTM D4541-02: Standard Test Method for Pull-Off Strength of Coatings Using Portable Adhesion Testers) and salt spray (ASTM B117: Standard Practice for Operating Salt Spray).

Our primer should receive a finish coat of paint within 30 days of delivery.  It is the responsibility of the General Contractor to sand, touch up and clean prime painted surfaces prior to finish painting in accordance with the finish-paint manufacturer’s instructions.
Until a finish-coat is applied, material must be stored as described in HMMA 840: Guide specification for installation and storage of hollow metal doors and frames.

If you do not want a primer applied, or you want to request powder-coated finished material for a large project, discuss the options with your sales person before you place your order.
