Description

The ThermaGuard has been developed to offer the increasing demands for energy efficient buildings in the UK and the wider green issues surrounding this.

Thermaguard is accredited by a UKAS approved company as defined by the requirements of BS EN 10077-2:2017, manufactured entirely in the UK by Metador.
 
The ThermaGuard steel doorset uses innovative design elements to reduce the U value on a single leaf doorset to as low as 1.4 W/m2K meeting the requirements of building regulations Part L in England, Scotland and Wales.
 
The door and frame is made to measure as standard and available in almost any RAL or BS colour finish to suit. Special finishes such as textured, metallic or woodgrain effects are available where aesthetics are critical.
 
Vision panels are available in custom sizes and positions to suit and meet requirements.
Triple glazed options with privacy film, obscure or patterned glass are available.
The ThermaGuard can also be manufactured with an acoustic rating if required.
Fire rated option can be up to 120 minutes.
 
Transom panels and side panels are available including options for triple glazed sections.
 
Application

Any building where energy conservation is important or where a stable climate might be required in a specific room or building area as it is either heated or cooled.

Measure

A steel doorset is always ordered by the OVERALL dimensions including the door leaf and outer sub fixing frame with no tolerances allowed for. Most people would generally allow 5mm tolerance all the way around the door, but it all depends on how square or true your aperture is on site. This is up to your judgement based on the aperture quality.

 
This would mean if your structural opening size is measured as 1000mm width and 2100mm height the door and frame ought to be 990mm wide and 2090mm high with the frame and any threshold included.
 
Always measure the top, middle and bottom of your aperture width and the left and right hand side for the height and if possible do a measure to make sure the opening is square as well.
 
Always use millimetres for measuring as this is how we relay back the ordering dimensions to you for checking and approving a drawing for your order.
 
We will always send a drawing for approval before manufacturing commences.
