Abstract

Fiber reinforced polymeric pultruded cladding as jamb cover elements and mullion cover elements, for door frames and mullions, using pultruded structures as cladding over substrates. A jamb cover assembly includes a pultruded jamb plate and/or a pultruded nosing, and a mounting fin. The mounting fin extends from a distal side of the assembly. The frame can be secured in a doorway rough opening with the nosing assembled to the jamb plate, using the mounting fin for initial securement, optionally without assembly or disassembly of the frame at the construction site. Pultruded substrate covering covers both the outer surface and opposing sides of a mullion substrate. A pultruded mullion nosing is assembled to the substrate covering, and overlies part of the substrate cover, providing complete pultruded overlayment of the outer surface of the mullion substrate and spacing the front panel of the nosing from the outer surface of the substrate.
