Viridian Structural Glazed Systems™

Total vision systems for doors and entrances

Description

Frameless glass doors provide clear, uninterrupted vision into a building making them ideal for shopfronts and office entrances. Viridian Structural Glazed Systems™ are an ideal choice and can be supplied in clear, grey, bronze, green and blue colour options. Door hardware can be selected from several manufacturers and custom products and finishes are also available. Standard finishes include polished brass, chrome, stainless steel and powdercoat colours. The doors are supplied in finished form including all holes and edge work with special cut-outs to accept specified handles, pivots and locks.

Design considerations

The design can incorporate double doors and sidelights. The maximum sizes are based on the largest available toughened glass for a single sidelight. Doors up to 2400mm in height are suitable for design wind loads of 1.0kpa. Higher wind loads and door heights may lead to unacceptable deflections. The exposed edges of the door heights are vulnerable to damage and consequent breakage, especially in areas of high traffic with trolleys or shopping carts for example. For additional safety, a Viridian toughened laminated product combination should be considered. For more information on these systems, please contact Viridian.
