What are the results of static force tests on Titan doors?
Static force tests are performed with a specific set of parameters established in advance, such as size of door, distance of pull from a door, how quickly force was applied and others. Unless one knows the exact way a test was performed, a direct comparison to other tests is impossible. Titan had our doors, as well as others, tested by an independent testing lab to establish minimum requirements for our doors. Our main objective was to prove that the rust free 6063-T6 alloy that we use is engineered to make our frames at least as strong as the 16 gauge steel frames used by competitors. Testing to the elastic limits using the same testing equipment at the same time, our 1 1/2 architectural grade Aluminum door frames tested to as much as 6 times stronger than those that use the standard 16 gauge steel 2 frame on security doors.
