Such products include residential steel door edge frames, commercial door header and door jams, taking advantage of roll forming technology and innovation moving together.

The Steel door edge frame starts from a coil of steel and finishes each manufacturing cycle with five finished frames, produced automatically without the touch of a single hand.

The driven Flattener pulls material off the double ended uncoiler, responding to a loop control to provide free material prior to the pierce and notching.

Unique hydraulic presses are located by digital read outs for fast accurate set-ups during changeovers in actuated in sequence for maximum flexibility with minimal investments. Each die can be moved to provide infinite location to meet the customers' wide range of door width and door heights.

The Roll Former produces the desired profile without damage to the pre-painted material.

A fly in-line hydraulic cut off press cuts the strip to length.

A series of embossing dies with infinite adjustability permit frame manufacture with varying distances between the latch and the dead bolt, plus emboss for three or four hinge locations and infinite center to center distances.

The pre-notched roll formed and embossed frame is automatically removed from the series of dies, transferred to the frame bender, then formed and staked into the required size of door frame. One of a kind, this unit is able to bend five door frames in each cycle and then release the finished frames.

A lifting device transfers the five finished frames to the next operation.
