<strong>Astragals</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Thresholds</strong>
DLP Industries New Stainable Aluminum Astragal<br />
DLP Industries, Inc. is proud to introduce our new stainable aluminum astragal. Our new painting process was formulated<br />
specifically for DLP <strong>and</strong> allows for our product to be top-coated to match your doors using an oil-based stain,<br />
a latex paint, or an oil-based paint. As always, our aluminum astragals continue to maintain Florida Building Code<br />
Compliance.<br />
DLP Industries <strong>Thresholds</strong><br />
For security <strong>and</strong> weather protection.<br />
• Florida Building Code compliant<br />
• Available in aluminum, bronze, bright gold, <strong>and</strong> oak<br />
• Many style specifications available<br />
Staining Instructions:<br />
The door <strong>and</strong> Astragal should be stained as one<br />
1. Wipe down the door <strong>and</strong> astragal with acetone to remove any contaminates or oil.<br />
2. Allow acetone to dry, then tape off or remove the trim strips <strong>and</strong> hardware that’s installed into the<br />
astragal in preparation for applying the stain.<br />
3. Apply an oil-based interior wiping stain using a chip brush. Apply the stain in light coats, following the grain of<br />
your door. Once each coast becomes tacky, brush it using your chip brush to create the effect of wood grain.<br />
Let each coat dry thoroughly before applying the next, making sure to apply at least 2 coats.<br />
4. Once your stain has fully cured, apply a SPAR Varnish for protection from the elements.<br />
Follow the manufacturers’ suggestions for this application.<br />

DLP Industries Aluminum Astragal<br />
Feel safe <strong>and</strong> secure with the DLP Aluminum Astragal between your doors. We believe that the home is a safe haven <strong>and</strong><br />
every astragal that DLP manufactures is made to produce the highest design pressures possible for Florida Building Code<br />
<strong>and</strong> HVHZ Compliance. We do not need a separate “Hurricane Kit” to increase our design pressure as all of our astragals<br />
are assembled in the exact same fashion. We at DLP strive to maintain a quality, high-performance product while keeping<br />
the cost to a minimum. Our patented locking system <strong>and</strong> installation methods make for the easiest <strong>and</strong> most cost effective<br />
system in the industry.<br />
Toggle lock technology<br />
provides the ultimate security<br />
providing simple <strong>and</strong> smooth<br />
operation <strong>and</strong> eliminates the<br />
ability of unlocking the astragal<br />
from the outside.<br />
