Mon-Ray Custom Fit Classic Series Storm Doors

You know about Mon-Ray windows, but are you familiar with Mon-Ray storm doors? The Window Man carries all of Mon-Ray's models--and our consultants would be delighted to help you choose which one is best suited for your home.

Mon-Ray Classic Series storm doors are the result of over forty years of research, design and production. Pound for pound, no other storm door can compare to its overall strength, energy-efficiency and attractive, trim-line appeareance.

The exceptional strong tubular frame and Z-bar are made of tough T6 aluminum. This additional heat tempering gives the aluminum a special retention memory. When twisted it will return to its original, straight-line shape. Because of the superior strenght of T6 tempering, the aluminum extrusions in the Classic door are not as thick and bulky as those in other doors. The result is a more attractive, trim-line appearance with more area for viewing and ventilating.

Each of the corners are neatly joined together with a solid aluminum gusset that is over 1/4" thick. The corner gussets are securely anchored to the frame with four stainless steel screws to prevent twisting and seperating. Sturdy, tubular, aluminum frame section will not easily bend, dent or sag.

Features:

  • Exceptionally Strong Z-Bar...with durable Fin-Seal weatherstripping around full perimeter provides an energy tight seal.
  • Strong T6 Tempered Tubular Frame...will not easily bend, sag or swell like inexpensive metal, vinyl or wood doors.
  • Unique Mon-Ray Self-Storing Window Unit...engineered to be energy efficient, yet easy to operate. Attractive, trim-line design provides for maximum viewing and ventilating.
  • Spring-Loaded, Stainless Steel Pin-Locks...easy to grip and operate. Ratchet-style jamb liner provides ventilation settings every 2 inches.
  • Solid, Insulating Masonite Panel...effectively reinforces permanently bonded aluminum kickplate from unsightly dents.
  • Adhustable Sill Expander...is double weatherstripped to assure snug fit when door is closed.

About Mon-Ray Storm Doors
Mon-Ray backs its Classic Series storm door with a written, non-prorated Ten Year Warranty. While other storm door manufacturers only provide warranty coverage to the original owner, Mon-Ray warranty is fully transferable to whoever owns the residence on which the door was originally installed.

The importance of strength and durability in providing comfort and security, as well as, maintaining the original appearance is found in the Classic Door. If energy-efficiency, low-maintenance and a long-lasting, attractive appearance are important to you, then your search for the right storm door is over.

Watch as the heavy-duty closer gently pulls the Classic Door closed. while the closer works to hinder quick and damaging slamming, the sturdy check chain helps prevent dangerous full-open swinging.

WHAT IS HEAT MIRROR?

As The Window Man well knows--the choice of the right glazing is one of the most important and far-reaching decisions that an architect or building owner will make. This decision impacts the overall design, human comfort, energy efficiency, mechanical HVAC design and loads, daylighting, condensation control, ultraviolet fading and sound control. In the design of any building (whether it be residential, commercial or industrial) one must look at and take into consideration the six principal glazing design challenges.

These are:

  • Winter Comfort and Heating Load
  • Summer Comfort Cooling Load
  • Natural Daylighting
  • Appearance and Reflectivity
  • Ultraviolet Fading Control
  • Condensation Control

The Heat Mirror™ family of wavelength-selective products offer the solution to all glazing design challenges such as climate, elevation and application. These solutions provide unparalleled flexibility to "tune" a building to meet these needs. As more and more architects, builders and homeowners adopt Southwall's technology buildings will move from part of the environmental problem to part of its solution.
