Pre-Assembled
Frame comes pre-assembled for simple fitting on site.
Non Fire-Rated Metal Frames
This collection of frames is suitable for applications where fire resistance is not required. Versatile by design as each frame profile is available in various sizes to fit different wall types. A wide range of profiles offer a breadth of options in installation methods and accommodation to varying wall openings and door types.
Metal frames are supplied as assembled systems for easy on-site fitting or retrofitting. Available in a range of finishes including zincanneal, galvanized steel and stainless steel. Frames are prime painted prior to delivery.
Zinc Coated
Steel surface is zinc coated for protection of the steel.
Options
A wide selection of options are available to accommodate specific needs.
Specifications
Steel Gauge Options
1.2mm | 1.6mm
Door Pairing
Suits door thickness up to what wall thickness allows.
Zincanneal
Ony suitable for internal application as it is prone to corrosion.
Galvanised Steel
Suited for exterior application as it is resistant to corrosion.
Stainless Steel
Suited for exterior application as it is resistant to corrosion. Has a smooth surface finish for premium aesthetic. Spence sells two grades of Stainless Steel: 304 and 316. These represent different mixtures of elements; 316 offers a greater resistance to corrosion.
Zinc Coating
Both Zincanneal and Galvanised Steel frames are manufactured and finished a zinc coating. This is a protectant against moisture and the subsequent corrosion of the frame. This can also be painted over with no further preparation required.
Etch Priming
Etch priming is required to seal the frame’s surface on external applications. Although zinc coating protects the frame’s surface against moisture, the edges remain exposed after the frame is cut and folded. Etch Primer is a paint applied to these edges to seal them along with the whole surface to provide an extra layer of protection and assist in the surface hosting paint.
Hot-Dipped Galvanized
The submersion of the assembled frame in hot zinc. This ensures a complete frame sealing for the ultimate protection against corrosion. Typically reserved for applications with extreme corrosion risk.
Installation
Hinge & Latch preparations come as standard (see below images*).
Hardware preparations may be completed as extra during the manufacturing stage. See Closer Preparation under Optional Extras.

Built for Purpose
Pressed Metal Frames may be specified in an Acoustic Door Set; capable of delivering an acoustic rating of up to:
- Rw 47 for a Single Door set
- Rw 42 for a Pair Door set.
- Rw 50 for an Interconnecting Fire Door set.
Profiles available which feature a return to fit a Euroseal or approved seal specific to Pyropanel for sealing of the door set. During installation, the frame must be backfilled to host a solid construction throughout.
Pressed Metal Frames are capable of being specified in a Radiation Door Set for the likes of X-Ray rooms in Healthcare settings. Spence Doors manufacture the frame with an additional layer of lead lining within the frame to resist the passage of X-rays and Gamma rays through its body. Paired with a lead-lined door leaf, the frame plays an integral role in fulfilling the requirements of a Radiation Door Set.
