Cope Joint, 100 - 189 Styles
The Cope 100 - 189 Style Doors are our most commonly used style of door. We offer a wide selection of profiles which may be used with this style of door. The Cope Joint is simply a reverse cut of the Frame Profile on the ends of the cross pieces with a hidden Mortise & Tenon. This gives you a strong yet very cost-efficient way of building a door.
With the Cope 100 - 189 Style Doors, the profile may not exceed 3/8" from edge of frame. Standard frame size for 100 - 189 Style Doors include 2-1/4" uprights with 2-3/4" cross pieces. However, for a modest surcharge, you may specify these widths to your preferences.
