Reinforcements
Frame reinforcements are heavy-gauge steel backing plates factory-welded inside the frame profile at hardware mounting locations. They provide structural support for hinges, strikes, closers, exit devices, and other surface-mounted hardware. All reinforcements are positioned to ANSI/BHMA standards, ensuring precise hardware alignment without field modification.
- Heavy-gauge steel backing at hardware locations
- Factory-welded to ANSI/BHMA standard positions
