Patent number: 8677707Abstract: A door skin comprises an exterior side and an interior side for being secured to a frame member. First and second molded, spaced stiles lie on a first plane. A flat planar portion is disposed between the stiles and lies on a second plane spaced from the first plane. A first interface portion is disposed between and contiguous with the stiles and the flat planar portion. First and second integrally molded, spaced rails lie on a third plane, wherein the third plane is intermediate the first and second planes.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2011Date of Patent: March 25, 2014Assignee: Masonite CorporationInventors: Steven K.

Patent number: 8650834Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of forming a molded core component. A mat formed from cellulosic fiber and resin is provided. The mat is consolidated in a first press until the resin is substantially fully cured, and then removed from the first press. The consolidated mat is then placed in a second press having a mold cavity shaped to form at least one depression in at least one of the major surfaces. The consolidated mat is reformed in the second press to form a molded core component having at least one depression in at least one of the major surfaces. The molded core component has a variable density, preferably of between about 10 lbs/ft3 and 80 lbs/ft3.Type: GrantFiled: January 2, 2013Date of Patent: February 18, 2014Assignee: Masonite CorporationInventors: Geoffrey B. Hardwick, Henry M. Coghlan, John Peter Walsh, Allen Ray Hill
