UA-profiles are vertical profiles and are used in doorways or window frames. The thicker material provides additional strength.
A UA-profile is a vertical profile (standard) and plays a crucial role in building and construction applications, especially in the installation of doorways and window frames. A UA-profile is carefully designed and manufactured to provide the required structural properties needed to support the load of doors and window frames. In this way, you create firm support and additional strength and stability.One thing is certain: you are assured of good and lasting results.
A UA-profile is identical in dimensions to a VU-profile.This uniformity allows them to be used easily in a variety of building applications.Regarding thickness, UA-profiles are only available in 2 mm.They also feature grooves in the back.Their number (one or two grooves) depends on the profile width. The grooves provide additional flexibility in attaching and fitting other building materials and allow profiles to be customized for specific applications.

UA-profiles are placed on either side of the frame. The result is a sturdy and stable construction. They are attached both below and above with angle brackets. These serve as anchor points to hold the profiles in place.
Above the doorway, a UA-profile should be installed as a joist. Next, apply C-profiles above the doorway: between the ceiling profile and the joist.
