The Castlegate Entry System offers an outstanding combination of energy <br />savings, security and low maintenance beauty. The entire line of Castlegate <br />doors carries the strongest warranty available in the industry. Our warranty <br />is good for 20 years from the date of purchase and can be transferred to the <br />new owner if the home is sold. <br />Energy Efficiency: Our construction features keep the weather outside three ways: a solid <br />polyurethane core for high insulation value; exclusive thermal break edge to keep out cold in winter and <br />heat in summer; and perimeter weatherstripping plus a bottom sweep with drip fin for tight seal against <br />temperature and moisture penetration. <br />The solid polyurethane core <br />ensure a R-15 insulating <br />value which gives up to five <br />times the energy efficiency of <br />wood doors and <br />approximately 30% better <br />than steel doors with <br />polystyrene insulation. <br />The triple contact bottom <br />sweep utilizes twin <br />compression tubes and <br />extruded vinyl sweep, blade <br />mate with threshold to seal <br />the door bottom, ensuring <br />no leaks, drafts or ice <br />buildup. <br />Our True Thermal Break <br />tightly locks the outer skins <br />together while separating <br />interior and exterior surfaces. <br />This feature successfully <br />prevents thermal bowing, <br />heat loss, condensation, and <br />frost or ice buildup on the <br />inner skin. <br />A fully continuous strip of <br />foam compression <br />weatherstrip combines with <br />the bottom sweep and <br />threshold to tightly seal door <br />and frame. This superb <br />combination eliminates air <br />and water leakage. <br />Our magnetic weatherstripping <br />"follows" the steel door as it <br />opens and closes. The composite <br />magnetic/TPE extrusions <br />eliminate air gaps in the <br />weatherstrip channel, so there <br />is a stronger magnetic seal than <br />you get with most magnetic <br />systems. <br />Security and Durability: A 24 -gauge galvanized steel door with <br />reinforced lock and hinge preparations, the exclusive interlocking steel edge, <br />and vinyl thermal break gives extra strength and security. <br />12 gauge hinge reinforcement <br />provides rigid and positive <br />attachment to the frame <br />system. The special plate <br />riveted within the door <br />eliminates costly callbacks <br />resulting from sag and <br />misalignment. <br />By reinforcing the lock <br />preparation, a rigid base is <br />provided for locksets. No steel <br />cutting is required for <br />installation of hardware. <br />The rigid steel skins are strong <br />and secure, discouraging <br />would-be intruders. This <br />superior surface won't warp, <br />sag, shrink or swell like wood <br />doors. The result is a door <br />with low maintenance and <br />long life. <br />
