structural description
 
The frame assembly of the structural elements uses double rabbet joining. The reveal and the wing joints use double rabbets and double contact - 1 flexible and 1 permanent contact - with Oppold E-25-8/20 Euro rabbet tooling, which conforms even to the highest Western European standards. Good air sealing and a flexible contact are guranteed by a special weather-strip profile running around the wing in two layers. In case of higher air sealing or sound proofing needs we recommend 73 mm thick, also double flexible air sealed wings. Water runoff is ensured by an aluminium, eloxated surface coated Gutmann "rimmed" water bar, equipped with a plastic end plug, which fully covers the lower part of the reveal (which is the most exposed to the elements). In case of entrance doors, in addition to wooden door steps, lower closure can also be arranged with Gutmann aluminium door steps and automatic rubber door steps.
