Simpson Door Company's Performance Series® Doors:
Tough Wood Doors for Tough Exposures
MCCLEARY, Wash. - Simpson Door Company is pleased to introduce Performance Series® doors - one of the decade's most dramatic breakthroughs in wood door construction.
Historically, tough exposures such as rain, snow, direct sunlight and standing water have posed a challenge to wood doors, often causing problems with leakage, rotting and warping. After two years of extensive research, Simpson Door Company has developed a revolutionary construction process that will enhance the performance of wood doors in difficult conditions, without sacrificing the door's integrity and outer appearance.
Performance Series doors combine UltraBlock® technology and an exclusive Weather Seal™ process to virtually eliminate the threat of rotting, splitting and swelling of bottom rail and lower stile components. Performance doors provide maximum water protection, which helps preserve the natural beauty of wood. They are built to withstand the toughest exposures and are the perfect choice for almost any patio door situation, including areas with poor overhang protection and wet and humid climates.
Performance Series doors are currently available in French door styles and can be ordered with insulated glass units. The doors are backed by a five-year limited warranty. For more information call Simpson Door Company at 1-800-952-4057 or visit www.simpsondoor.com.
