    摘要: Disclosed is a method of forming a composite door. A precursor frame sheet, comprising flaps, is formed by cutting a prepreg sheet. The precursor frame sheet is draped over a door-forming tool, comprising a frame face and flap supports, non-parallel to the frame face, such that each of the flaps of the precursor frame sheet is geometrically complementary with a corresponding one of the flap supports. A composite frame is formed by curing the precursor frame sheet, draped over the door-forming tool, wherein the composite frame comprises a first rail and a second rail. The composite frame is separated from the door-forming tool. The composite frame, first composite edge fittings, second composite edge fittings, a first composite side beam, a second composite side beam, and a composite skin are interconnected. The first composite side beam comprises a first-beam base and two first-beam sides, non-parallel to the first-beam base, and connecting the first composite side beam to the composite frame comprises connecting a first one of the two first-beam sides to the first rail.

    摘要: A garage door magnetic overlay system comprised of a plurality of magnetic overlay sections for attaching to a front surface of an existing garage door to renovate and change the appearance of the existing garage door. Each of the magnetic overlay sections is made of a neodymium-magnetic steel core with a matte printed front surface and a high-friction coating on the rear surface. One of the plurality magnetic overlay panels attaches to each panel of the existing garage door including at least one top panel and one bottom panel.

    摘要: An impact rated frame for sectional doors includes a frame assembly sandwiching a shield member and securely clamping a planar portion of a sectional door. The frame assembly and the shield member are fastened together with a plurality of fasteners driven through the frame assembly and the shield member. The impact rated frame further includes a decorative frame affixed to the frame assembly. The decorative frame seals against the planar portion of the sectional door and the shield member to prevent the frame assembly from contamination. The shield member may be transparent or opaque with multiple louvers.

    摘要: This disclosure describes methods for making insulated door panels using separate façade members, in order to separate the manufacturing process of the exterior cosmetic design surface from the structural components of the door panels. This allows a same manufacturing line for the door panels to accept façade members of different designs and to produce door panels of these different designs. The facade members are made in separate production lines using various techniques, including casting, molding, vacuum forming, extrusion, and the like. The façade members are then fed into door panel production lines that fill polyurethane foams to form complete panels. The façade members become the exterior skins of the panels with minimum overlay with any backing structure to reduce material wastes, as well as lowering tooling costs for different designs due to the common backing structure that may be shared.
