Type A Frame Packers provide reliable, consistent spacing for the installation of door and window frames. Their wide 45 × 55 mm format offers stable support under larger frames and threshold sections, ensuring an even, secure fit during installation.
The unique U-shaped design with side retainers helps the packer lock securely into position — preventing slippage during fitting. This makes them ideal for aligning and levelling frames against uneven substrates, especially in uPVC and aluminium systems.
Manufactured from polypropylene, Type A Frame Packers won’t absorb moisture, swell, or rot like timber packers. The bright, colour-coded thicknesses make identification quick and easy on-site, speeding up fitting work and reducing installation errors.
