DescriptionThe Glas-Dor is a steel fully glazed door set with a full glass profile frame system to offer a complete solution in many different buidlings, especially where fire resistance and security might be required. This version is an RC2 certified doorset and made to measure for a perfect fit along with the surrounding glass transoms or side lights with the same certification.
The GLAS-DOR system is type-approved for several fire-resistant classes in combination with burglary resistance, e.g. EI 60 and RC3. Fire resistance is provided in accordance with the applicable type approval certificate. Burglary-resistance classes RC3 and RC4 are in accordance with standard ENV 1627.
The type approval certificates mean that “labelled” sections can be used to comply with specific requirements for fire and burglary resistance with a transparent solution in stairwells, for instance. It is also possible to move exterior protection from an entrance and also comply with these requirements in stairwells, for example, that may separate various activities.
The profile depth can be adjusted to suit specific requirements, e.g. 65, 70 and 90 mm.
In addition to requirements for fire resistance the glass must also comply with requirements for burglary resistance as per EN 356 as well as fittings.
What is PAS24?
PAS 24 guarantees the production of doors in line with PAS 24 2016 regulations: Enhanced security performance requirements for doorsets and windows in the UK. It is for external doorsets and windows intended to offer a level of security suitable for certain dwellings and other buildings exposed to comparable risk and the specific and the relevant material specific standard for general performance. For this reason, a UKAS approved body monitors the production of our doors to ensure we comply with these standards consistently. Of course with a regulated production process and a tested specification involving making a product stronger inevtiably you also benefit from a more durable product to stand up to day to day use as well ensuring longevity and quality.
PAS 24 is a British minimum standard, meaning you can only achieve a pass or a fail. It involves a series of tests that simulate an attack on a doorset from an opportunist burglar. The tests assess the security performance to see if a door meets minimum standards. PAS 24 certified steel doors will offer higher basic security than non-certified doors. They are totally suitable for external use in buildings exposed to reasonable risk, such as commercial properties.
