SECURITY FEATURES FOR A SLIDING DOOR SYSTEM
20220389757 · 2022-12-08 · ·

A sliding door system having one or more sliding doors, door frames (e.g., static frames of different sizes for different wall thicknesses or adjustable frames that can be used to fit different wall thicknesses), sliding door hardware (e.g., tracks, wheels, soft closers, stops, or the like), header, door receiver, a plurality of seals, or the like. The sliding door system utilizes improvements to the components in order to provide security features, such as electromagnetic (EMC—EMI/RFI) shielding, sound resistance, blast resistance, forced entry and/or ballistic resistance, privacy features, light reduction, fire and/or smoke resistance, or the like to the sliding door system. In particular, the sliding door system allows for the use of the security features with the static or adjustable door frames described herein.

Dissipative bracket to mitigate effects of explosions on building facades
11499332 · 2022-11-15 · ·

A glazed façade anchoring system to a building including a box with a connection system to the façade and connection to the building slab. The first and second connections enable relative movement between one another, when the façade moves within the gap between the rear surface of the façade and the building slab edge under the high pressure loads due to exceptional events such as explosions. The device includes one or more solid elements with dissipative components acting in compression in the inward building direction and one or more solid elements with dissipative components acting in compression in the outward building direction.

Door system having sound control and RF shielding and methods of making same

A door system and a method of making a door system including a metal door, a metal door frame for the metal door, and one or more door frame seals. The metal door and the metal door frame each include a steel outer surface with a first metal layer in contact with and that encapsulates or covers the steel outer surface, and a second metal layer in contact with and that encapsulates or covers the first metal layer. The first metal layer is different from the second metal layer. The first metal layer can be optional. The door frame seals are located on the metal door frame and provide conductivity between the metal door and the metal door frame. The door system preferably has an acceptable sound transmission class rating and RF shielding properties.

SILL CORNER BRACKETS FOR COASTAL IMPACT RESISTANT FENESTRATIONS

Embodiments herein relate to fenestrations exhibiting coastal impact performance. In an embodiment, a fenestration unit includes a frame assembly forming a first lower corner and a second lower corner. A first sill corner bracket can fit on a top of a sill and extend from the first lower corner partway along the top of the sill and partway along one side jamb of the frame assembly. A second sill corner bracket can be configured to fit on the top of the sill and extend from the second lower corner partway along the top of the sill and partway along the other side jamb. A bottom sash can include a bottom rail defining a channel to receive at least a portion of the first corner bracket and the second corner bracket therein when the bottom sash is in the closed position. Other embodiments are also included herein.
