Our website allows the visitors to filter for a specific Nominal Size. A nominal size or trade size for doors is a size "in name only" used for identification. The nominal size may not match any dimension of the door but within the domain of the door size. For example, a 2’/8” wide door can any of the followings:

• 32”
• 31-¼”
• 31- ¾”
