Composite Outswing Sill

A Composite Outswing Sill has a thick wood-grained composite cap and nosing which resists wear and rot. It also features an all-composite substrate providing a solid stepping surface and superior rot-resistance. An intergrated A integrated weather-strip helps form a tight seal under wind pressure. It is recommended that all outswing units use NRP hinges. The standard Rough Opening height for a 6/8 outswing unit utilizing this sill is 81-11/16″.
