CURRIES drywall frames are available in 18, 16, or 14 gauge cold-rolled steel. These frames are manufactured to provide clean, sharp lines, rigid corner construction and fine miter lines on all joints. They are designed to go into an opening after the wall is up, and they are available to accommodate practically any wall thickness.

They can be used in drywall construction using steel studs, wood studs or laminated boards. Frames are available for either 1-3/8" (35) or 1-3/4" (44) thick doors.
