A fire-rated sliding elevator glass door is provided. The door includes a face panel, a liner, a fire-rated glass panel, and a retainer that retains the glass panel in the door frame. The elevator door is configured to pass a 90-minute fire rating test. The elevator door can be implemented as a single-speed side open elevator door, a single-speed center open elevator door, a two-speed side opening sliding elevator door, or a two-speed center opening sliding elevator door. A method of constructing the fire-rated elevator door is provided.

The present disclosure relates to an aperture covering, such as a building aperture covering. The aperture covering comprises a VIG unit 3 and a frame. The frame (2) comprises elongated fixation profiles (6) each of which are fixed to and arranged parallel to an elongated structural frame member (8). The fixation profile (6) comprises a fixation wall (6a) which extends opposite to an exterior major surface (S1) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (3) and is fixed to the exterior major surface (S1) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (3) by means of a bonding seal (9). The fixation profile (6) comprises a connection member (6b) extending from the fixation wall (6a), wherein the connection member (6b) is fixed to the elongated, structural frame member (8). The elongated structural member (8) faces the opposite interior major surface (S2) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (3) placed opposite to the exterior major surface (S1) of the vacuum insulated glass unit.

There are described fully trackless, frameless bi-fold doors for use with conventional bathtubs, showers, or walk-in bathtubs.

An insulating glass unit suitable for a refrigeration unit is presented. The insulating glass unit includes a first pane, a second pane spaced at a distance from the first pane, a peripheral spacer frame between the first pane and the second pane, and an inner interpane space. According to one aspect, the spacer frame includes four hollow-profile polymeric spacers, which are secured between the first pane and the second pane along one of the four sides of the insulating glass. According to another aspect, the two first hollow-profile polymeric spacers are arranged along two opposing first sides of the insulating glass unit and the two second hollow-profile polymeric spacers are arranged along two opposing second sides of the insulating glass unit. According to yet another aspect, the first polymeric hollow-profile spacers contain 5% to 50% and the second polymeric hollow-profile spacers contain 0% to 0.5% reinforcement fibers.

Perimeter frame for sliding glass doors of the type including extruded metal profiles that are combined together circumferentially surrounding the glass sheet having two lateral profiles (1) arranged vertically and that fit on the sides of the glass sheet (4), a set of lower profiles (2) arranged horizontally on each side of the glass sheet (4) at its lower part and a set of upper profiles (3) arranged vertically in the upper area of the sheet glass (4), between which there is provided an opening (5) through which protrudes the upper portion of the glass (6), in which the clamps (7) that hold the sheet are applied

Insulating glass unit (IGU) comprising at least two glass plates and at least one reinforcing element that increases the bending stiffness of at least a part of the IGU, and glass doors or windows comprising said IGU.

The clamping assembly for a glass door includes an outer clamping body, an inner clamping body, an automatic homing mechanism and a positioning unit. An upper jaw for clamping the glass door is provided on the top of the outer clamping body, and a first side wall and a second side wall are recessedly formed at the bottom of the outer clamping body. A first lower jaw is formed between the first side wall and the second side wall. The inner clamping body is disposed in the first lower jaw. A second lower jaw is formed at the bottom of the inner clamping body. The automatic homing mechanism is disposed in the second lower jaw. The positioning unit penetrates the first side wall to abut against the first recess on the inner clamping body.

A display case door assembly for a temperature-controlled storage device includes a vacuum panel, a hinge rail, and a lighting element. The vacuum panel includes a first vacuum pane, a second vacuum pane, and an evacuated gap between the first and second vacuum panes. The evacuated gap provides thermal insulation for the vacuum panel. The hinge rail is coupled to an edge of the vacuum panel and configured to rotate along with the vacuum panel between an open position and a closed position. The lighting element is coupled to at least one of the edge rail and the vacuum panel and configured to emit light toward an interior of the temperature-controlled storage device when the hinge rail and vacuum panel are in at least the closed position.

The invention relates to fixed glazing for a building, comprising at least one glass pane, for example triple glazing. According to the invention, the glass pane is directly inserted in the adjacent building structure without interposing a frame that consists of a rigid material, and/or it is inserted in the laterally adjacent insulation of the building structure.
