The “DW” Series frames are Knocked down (K.D.) type, Field assembled or welded Unit type with all
exposed welds ground smooth. Head and jambs of K.D. frames have die-cut metered corners that
interlock rigidly when filed assembled. Single rabbet, double rabbet and cased opening profiles are
sized to fit popular wall thickness. Integral doorstop are 16 mm high and frame face are 50mm,
adjustable, compression type anchors are welded to jambs and allow frames installation, plumbing
and squaring after wallboard is applied (to adjust anchors use screw drive). Components have
backbend-return that protect the wall surface during installation. Sill anchoring is by means of screws
through dimpled holes in face.

 D. ALLOWANCES
Precise details of the required product or system are not fully known at the bidding phase of the project.
The A/E includes a description of the product or system for which the allowance is reserved.
The actual sum of the allowance will be found on the bid form, not in the specification section.
Example: "Allow the sum stated on the bid form and in SECTION 01210 ALLOWANCES for the
purchase of custom door pulls for the main entrance doors. Custom door pulls shall be formed from
cast bronze to match the owner's design."

E. ALTERNATES
Identify portions of the project that vary from the base bid.
Alternates do not equal product substitutions.

F. UNIT PRICES
Quality, function, features known
Quantity unknown
Unit pricing listed on bid form, not in the specification section

1.02 REFERENCES
List the industry standards and other applicable reference documents that are used
elsewhere in the section.
Not listed in DIVISION 1 since they have a narrow and specific application to one (or a few)
section (s) rather than the entire project.
Requirements of referenced publications listed in this article are not enforceable unless
specifically invoked somewhere in the specification.

Note: The A/E usually includes the publication date of each of the referenced documents to ensure that
the correct editions of each publication are used on the project.
