JELD-WEN’s IWP Aurora Doors and Simpson Doors

When beauty and brawn meet in one package it’s worth a second look. The IWP Aurora custom fiberglass doors/jamb packages and the Simpson impact-resistant Mastermark Series wood doors promise to max out that combination.

First, the brawn. JELD-WEN’s IWP Aurora all-panel doors pass a strict series of impact resistance (2×4 cannon) and structural wind load tests to make sure they stay on their hinges, in the jambs and dry during a storm. A big part of what makes this possible is the door and door jamb’s fiberglass construction. JELD-WEN certifies their IWP fiberglass all-panel doors have passed the tests for storm approval, in large part because the holding power of the fasteners is greater in fiberglass than wood. It also has to do with the copious opening detailing, an included sill pan and fastening schedule they describe in their installation procedures.
