About this detail

An interior aluminum storefront door frame connects to steel stud wall framing finished with five-eighths inch gypsum board on each side. The frame is secured with quarter-inch by one-and-a-half-inch pan-head self-drilling screws spaced at twelve inches on center and six inches from ends, with shims as required maintaining a maximum one-eighth-inch gap. A zero-point-zero-four-inch aluminum break metal matches the storefront finish, backed by continuous paintable backer rod and sealant. Continuous paintable tooled caulk seals the perimeter junctions at the gypsum board.
