Options At Your Front Door

Seven panel options for its ninepanel, insulated steel embossed door have been introduced by Stanley Door Systems.

The options of four glass light panels and three carved panels reportedly enable the door to be used with any architectural style in any location.

Prime painted, ready for finishing, the door has a solid polyurethane core, l-l18 in. thermal break and a thermal break threshold to reduce heat loss. It is part of a complete system offering magnetic weather stripping and quality-assured engineering for security, durability and minimal maintenance.

Acrylic Storm Windows

Rigid acrylic storm windows, said to provide significant energy savings while assuring indoor winter com- fort, are new from Defender Energy.

ls lt Plaster?

New plaster veneers developed by United States Gypsum Co. reportedly offer the look, feel and sound of a plaster wall without the cost.

The Diamond Interior Finish One-Coat Veneer is recommended for interior wall and ceiling surfaces in all types of construction, while the Imperial Veneer Plaster System uses one or two coats to provide the slightly harder wall surface needed in high traffic areas.

The systems can be installed by a contractor in one or two coats, each l/16 of an inch thick, applied directly over gypsum baseboard. The veneer is said to coat effectively, preventing "nail pops " and minimizing ridges.

European-Styled Dishwasher

The Monterey, which has been added to KitchenAid's current dishwasher line, is specifically designed to complement the European-styled cabinets being used in today's new and remodeled kitchens.

Styled to provide a sleek contemporary look, it offers a triple filtration system with patented soil collector and a stainless steel hard food disposer which reportedly removes food from the water so it cannot be washed back onto the dishware. The special water heating system is said to assure water hot enough to cut through fats and tough food soils, even if the incoming water is as low as 120 degrees F.

Other features include a high capacity wash pump with a 4-way wash arm and middle wash arm to deliver strong up-and-down cleaning action aswell as adjustable racks, dividers and energy saving drying options.

They reportedly create a layer of warm dead air which acts as an insulator against the cold. In addition, the systems reportedly reduce noise. The product can also be used during the summer months to provide savings in cooling costs.

A wall safe designed to be installed by the d-i-y home owner or apartment dweller in less than one hour is new from H.G. Arms Co.
