Timely
Prefinished Steel Door Frames

     

New Worlds of Door Frame Design Options

The Timely frame system offers the advantages of a patented, sustained-tension clip which holds the casing securely to the wall creating tight miters.  This system permits the use of the following 5 casing profiles and a choice of wood trims supplied by other:
TA-8 Standard Steel Casing, widely admired for its classic profile, enhances any home or office setting. TA-30 Colonial Steel Casing, adds that special warmth which distinguishes quality-built assisted living, hotels and motels, offices, apartments and homes. TA-35 PVC Colonial Casing, a delicately defined extruded PVC molding, is quickly applied to Timely's clip system.  Painted or in wood grain.
TA-28 Aluminum Casing is full width aluminum casing without a reveal offering the advantages of a steel door frame. TA-23 Aluminum Casing, displays the crisp lines of an aluminum trim, while providing the economy and strength of steel. Adjustable Frame, for walls with varying thicknesses, the Timely Adjustable Frame utilizes a slide guide system that allows the frame to adjust from 3 3/4" to 9 1/8" with only 3 closure strips to fit any wall within this range.
