Abstract of the Disclosure A formed sheet metal rectugular-shaped frame is positioned between two sheet metal panels which may be embossed to provide the appearance of small wood panels. The frame include an elongated frame member for each edge of the doors and each frame member has two outwardly facing parallel spaced channel portions integrally connected by a center web portion. Extruded plastic trim members cover the top and slide frame members and include longitudlinal extendting hook-shaped leg portions which project into the channel portions and snap-fit onto inwardly formed edge portions of the side panels. A foam Insulation material is expanded between the side panels and also serves to space the side panels laterally from the frame to form a thermal barrier. The side trim members are interrupted or notched to receive the door hinges and a latch bolt housing which seat on the web portions of the corresponding frame members. A generally U-shaped elongated door seal is secured to the frame member which extends along the bottom of the door. The frame is preferably constructed in two opposing generally C-shaped sections which are expanded to receive the edge portions of the side panels before the foam is inserted and a block of more dense insulation material is placed between the slide panels adjacent one of the frame sec- tions for attaching a door lock set.
