.. General information
• dormakaba requires use of tempered monolithic or
tempered laminated glass.
• dormakaba glass hardware is not suitable for harsh
environment; for example, applications where
chemicals (e.g. chlorine) are used such as indoor
swimming pools, saunas, or salt-water pools.
• Do not swing doors with excessive force. Install
limiting stop to prevent door from opening too far.
.. Glass requirements/fittings/mounting
• The substructure/wall must be able to bear
permanent loads, and be level (max. tolerance:
/” [] per ” [m]).
• Fasteners must be sufficiently dimensioned for the
substructure/wall and weight of the door.
• When adjusting glass elements, always stick to the
required clearance for the respective hardware.
Adjust clearance so glass does not come in contact
with any hard surfaces such as glass, metal or
concrete.
• Do not use excessive force when installing the glass
(avoid over tightening screws.)
.. Requirements for glass panel
• dormakaba requires use of fully tempered glass,
which complies with ASTM C and ASTM C
. Secondary heat soaking processes are
optional but not required.
• Clamping area must be flat and uncoated (no
self-cleaning coating!)
• Never use glass with conchoidal fractures and/or
damaged edges.
.. Safety instructions
• Installation requires two people.
• Always wear protective clothing.
• Only properly qualified and specially trained staff
are authorized to mount dormakaba glass
hardware.
• Due to crushing hazards and possible injury caused
by breakage of glass during mounting,
corresponding protective clothing (especially gloves
and protective goggles) is required.
• Never clamp metal fitting hardware directly to
glass surface.
