Features

Carriage Bead Board Appearance

The raised bead board embossment delivers a refined exterior presentation that fits craftsman, traditional, and modern farmhouse architecture—without the upkeep demands of wood.

Durable Section Construction

Sections are manufactured from hot dipped galvanized steel with reinforced meeting rails to enhance strength and rigidity through frequent cycles.

Stable Stile Support

Vertical stiles use galvanized I-beam reinforcement and are secured to the interior face for a more robust, stable section build.

Bottom Seal Support for Weather

The bottom section is reinforced to support a replaceable, UV-protected bottom weather seal helpful for reducing air and debris intrusion at the floor line.
