Revision of U. S. Commercial Standard Covering Stock Fir Doort

The Fir Door Institute, Tacoma, Wash., on June 3, sent the following bulletin to Fir door sales representatives and distributors regarding a revision of the U. S. Commercial Standard covering stock Douglas fir doors:

"A revision of the U. S. Commercial Standard covering stock Douglas fir doors is now in the hands of the Bureau of Standards and will be soon distributed for acceptance' The actual promulgation will probably take place r'vithin the next 60 to 90 days.

"In this Standard the specifications for prefitting stock fir doors will be shown for the first tirne'

"The specifications call for prefitting stock fir doors 3/16" less in width and l/8" less in height than book sizes'

"IMPORTANT: This represents a change from prefitting specifications as they have existed for the past two n"urrl Until now fir doors have been prefit to net book ,irer. No* prefit doors will be prefitted 3/16" less in width and. l/8" less in height than book sizes'

,.Almost immediaiely, some of the fir door factories will begin prefitting to the new specification; by July 1st all fir doirs will have changed over and your prefit fir door orders after that date will be filled accordingly in producing prefrt doors ov.er a period of years' Now it is apparent that these nerv dimensions will meet satisfactorily the needs of frame manufacturers' dealers' ;ott"r, ",ti brril.l.rs alike and will be accepted readily because of the many proven advantages of the prefit program.

"This change over before the promulgation of the Commercial Standard (which should be announced in August or September) will allorv you to adjust your warehouse stocks before the actual promulgation. In this way youf inventory will be on the new basis before your customers see the u,'nou.,..,nent and the advertising of the Revised Standard.

"The change in specifications was made by the fir door industry only after considerable study resulting from the "*p".i".r."

"Furthermore. since it is now evident that stock doors produced by other manufacturing groups will be prefitted to the same new specifications, you will find confusion eliminated among carpenters and builders' and your prefit in' r-entories will match up properly'
