Presto framing system
A non-insulated steel framing system delivering fire, bullet, smoke and intruder resistance, Forster Presto is approved for fire resistance up to -/120/- for both doors and windows. Offering both cost and aesthetic advantages in various environments, the framing system is increasingly being chosen for applications that require steel doors and windows, even where no further performance is required.
Presto framing systems are offered in both mild and stainless steel, and feature a very slimline visible section with excellent strength. Presto is perfect for very large panes.
Mild steel sections can be treated with paint or powdercoated, or selective profiles can be hot dipped galvanised. Stainless steel sections are available in linished 304 grade, and can also be painted or powdercoated for use in highly corrosive environments.
The complete Presto framing range comes with all hardware including hinges, locks, handles, door seals, beadings, etc., to provide complete integration and seamless assembly.
