Double Egress Frames These frames are designed to permit a means of egress in two directions, suited for schools, hospitals, and nursing homes where the control of traffic is very important. The unit is available either labeled or non-labeled. Custom Frames Combinations or modifications of designs shown are available to meet job requirements. Frames are available in cold-rolled steel, galvannealed, or stainless steel. Jamb depths, face dimensions, stop height, and return length can vary with the job requirements. Frames are fully saw mitered and welded. Custom frame material is welded locally by our distributors, thereby eliminating costly delays and damage in shipment. Specifications Hollow metal frames for all openings shown on the architect’s drawings shall be manufactured by CURRIES of Mason City, Iowa. Frames are to be fabricated of either cold-rolled steel or galvannealed steel (as specified) of either 18, 16, 14, or 12 gauge. Joints are to be full saw mitered on a high speed metal cutting saw, full welded, and finished to a smooth surface. Frames are to be thoroughly degreased, cleaned, and phosphatized prior to painting. Frames shall receive a factory baked-on coat of rust inhibitive primer. Frames are to be mortised, reinforced and drilled and tapped for all mortise finish hardware. Frames are to be reinforced only for surface mounted hardware, with drilling and tapping to be done in the field by the erection contractor. Steel plates and mortising boxes are to be welded to all hinge and lock reinforcement. Lead-Lined Frames Lead lining is furnished by the X-ray contractor and can be installed at the factory. When used with lead-lined doors, it ensures complete X-ray protection. When specified, struts welded to the jambs and extended to the slab above provide more rigid anchorage.
