About
- Vision panels, view windows and specialty glass door assemblies, in laminated, tempered, wired and fire-rated glass with matching frames and gaskets, specialty glass doors are one of Senneca's core engineered categories. Fire-rated glass is classified by whether it holds integrity only, or integrity plus insulation, and the two are not interchangeable.
Application
Fitted where staff need sightlines through a door, hospital corridors, kitchens, cleanrooms and classroom doors, and in observation windows into cold stores and process areas. On a fire-rated opening the glazed area is capped by the tested assembly, so the architect's preferred panel size has to be checked against the door's certification before it is drawn, not after the door arrives on site.
Standards & Reference 7 cited
NFPA 80
Not a test but a compliance standard: how fire doors are installed, inspected and maintained, including the annual inspection and the requirement that every fire door self-closes and positively latches.
UL 10C
The positive pressure fire test for door assemblies. Positive pressure drives hot gas through any gap between door and frame, which makes it the more demanding test and the one North American codes now call for.
