Shanahan's Shan-Ex Expandable Knock Down Frames

Details

The Shan-Ex frame has been designed for commercial building applications and, in particular, for retrofit work on existing buildings.

The frame is an ideal solution when existing wall types are unknown and/or budget restraints limit demolition to existing partitions. The Shan-Ex frame is also an excellent product for use in new construction, where certain wall construction would normally be held up for custom jamb depth frames to be manufactured.

The mitred corners are architecturally pleasing and durable corner clips provide strong, high quality mitred joints, between the head and jamb. The heavy-duty expansion slider assembly has been designed for smooth operation and superior over-all frame strength.

The Shan-Ex frame can be used in any wall which has a thickness in the range of 4 1/2” to 7 3/4”.

The rough opening should be as follows:

• R.O. WIDTH = Nominal width + 1 3/4”

• R.O. HEIGHT = Nominal height + 7/8”

CORROSION RESISTANT

The Shan-Ex Frame is manufactured from 18 gauge galvanneal steel, which provides protection from corrosion and is an ideal substrate for finish paint.

FIRE RESISTANT

The Shan-Ex Frame has been tested by an internationally recognized testing laboratory and has met or exceeded all safety and fire regulations.
Shan-Ex Frames are rated up to and including 1 1/2” hour.
