Tru-Defense Door System eligibility and Warranty Rider ***

*A Door and a Door System are not the same. A Door System is assembled by a person  (for example, your builder, contractor dealer, or distributor) who sources and combines various separate components, including the Door Slab, into an entry system. If your door system is assembled using all genuine Therma-Tru Parts, then you will get the full benefit of a Therma-Tru Door System limited warranty.

**A 20-minutes Fire-Rated door must be permanently labeled with a fire door verification label to signify that the products is qualified as Fire-Rated. To determine if an eligible door has been machined and is certified for use as a fire door, an official fire door certification label will usually be between the top and middle hinge, on the hinge side edge of the door slab. If the fire door certification label is missing or has been removed, a Fire-Rated door may retain its fire rating if it is field labeled by the certification entity that originally certified the door (usually Warnock Hersey Intertek or Underwriter Laboratories). A Therma-Tru Fire Door (TR12-24) Steel Edge must be installed with a Therma-Tru Adjusta-Fit 2 frame with a lock bore sleeve, and a smock and draft intumescent seal to achieve a 90-minute or 60-minute positive pressure rating.

***Tru-Defense Fiberglass Door System: A Therma-Tru Giverglass door system may qualify for supplemental reimbursement under the Tru-Defense Door System Warranty Rider that provides for additional payment to the Warranty Holder of up to a maximum of $2,000 reimbursement if water infiltrates under a properly assembled, installed and maintained fiberglass door system that meets the additional provisions stated in the Tru-Defense Door System Warranty Rider. A copy of the Tru-Defense Door Sysem Warranty Rider for Giverglass Door Systems is available for Therma-Tru orp., 1750 Indian Wood Circle, Maumee, Ohio 43537, at 800-537-5322 or at www.thermatru.com, or from the builder, dealer, or contract who installed or sold the product.
