A plurality of stacked door skins is provided, the plurality including at least first and second door skins each including at least one inner panel, an outer body portion surrounding the at least one inner panel, and at least one contoured portion surrounding the at least one panel and interconnecting the at least one panel to the outer body portion. The at least one contoured portion includes a substantially V-shaped indent area adjacent to and within the outer body portion, a planar area that is substantially parallel to the outer body portion and is adjacent to and within the substantially V-shaped indent area, and a declining area adjacent to and within the planar area and terminating at the inner panel.

Door skin stacking

An adaptable door mounting support for acquiring a door gap and for supporting a door slab. The door mounting support comprises a frame member including first and second A-shaped segments interconnected by a rectangular bottom section and together defining a door support channel therebetween, and a tie device configured to meter the door gap and hold the door slab off the ground. A width of the door support channel is equal or larger than a thickness of the door slab. The tie device includes a cable tie extending between the A-shaped segments and across the door support channel, and a locking member attached to the cable tie by sliding over the cable tie. The locking member is slidable over the cable tie in one direction only and is lockable on the cable tie to adjust a distance between the cable tie and the bottom section of the frame member.

Adaptable door mounting support for positioning and installation of door slab and methods of use and assembly thereof

A system for installing a door slab in a door frame. The system comprises an adaptable door mounting support configured to acquire a door gap and to support the door slab at a height off of the ground equal to the door gap. The door mounting support includes a frame member and at least one tie device provided to meter the door gap and hold the door slab in place off the ground at the height equal to the door gap. The frame member includes two A-shaped segments interconnected by a bottom section and together defining a door support channel therebetween. The at least tie device includes a cable tie extending across the door support channel and a locking tab attached to the cable tie by sliding the locking tab over the cable tie. The locking tab is lockable on the cable tie.

Door facing

Bi-fold door facing

The present invention relates to a door frame, particularly a door frame for a pre-hung door assembly, which is foldable to minimize storage space and to allow for enhanced logistic efficiencies. The door frame contains parallel, spaced apart, vertical jambs and a horizontal header connecting the top ends of the jambs. Each of the jambs and the horizontal header contains a front section and back section that are hingedly joined so that then can be folded on to each other. The hingedly joined front and back sections allow the door fame to be foldable to minimize space occupied during storage.

Devices and methods for mounting door frames

A door skin is provided that includes at least one inner panel, an outer body portion surrounding the at least one inner panel, and at least one contoured portion surrounding the at least one panel and interconnecting the at least one panel to the outer body portion. The at least one contoured portion is recessed from the at least one panel and the outer body portion and includes a center base portion that interconnects with the outer body portion via a first sloping portion and with the panel via a second sloping portion. The first sloping portion includes a first angled portion and a first bump. The second sloping portion includes second and third bumps.
