FRAME

The ImperiClad™ system door jambs are made of Mikron Wood™ - an engineered composite material formulated from durable, thermoplastic resins and a tough co-extruded exterior SuperCap™ surface to give you 120% more surface hardness and 300 times more impact resistance than wood.*

MORE ENERGY EFFICIENT A Mikron Wood composite door frame is a solid thermoplastic material that outperforms other frame materials in energy efficiency.

SUPERIOR DURABILITY The ImperiClad door system provides a very durable, low maintenance exterior that never needs painting. Profiles are encapsulated with SuperCap, which provides a beautiful, yet durable millwork finish exterior that won’t peel, fade or warp and unlike aluminum, is impervious to salt air. Dirt can be easily removed with just mild soap and water. The SuperCap finish comes in 3 pre-finished colors: White, Almond and Adobe. Frames are also available in Bronze SRC solar reflective coating.

MOISTURE-PROOF, INSECT-PROOF
Mikron Wood composite door jambs
will never absorb moisture, humidity
or condensation – so components can’t
rot or deteriorate. Aluminum-clad
wood configurations can’t make this
claim. Mikron Wood is also impervious
to insect infestation.
*Mikron Material Science lab tests of Surface Hardness
(ASTM D2240, Shore D) and Impact Strength (ASTM
D4226).

COMPONENTS
ASTRAGALS
The Triple Seal Astragal by
Imperial Products has proven
consistently that it is the
highest performing and most
durable astragal available.
SEALS
The best thresholds and
astragals will only perform
to the level the weather seals
allow them, so we developed
the EZ Pad, 22 Sweep, and the
Leading Edge™ corner pad.
THE 5Y THRESHOLD
The best-performing, highest
quality, water-impervious
threshold on the market.
Available in a full, solid
extruded base and a cost-
effective, half-width base.

INSTALLATION Superior installation adds protection against the elements. Pre-fabricated parts save you cost.

The ImperiClad door system can help reduce energy loss, saving resources and reducing carbon emissons. MADE GREEN
