Door assemblies with insulated glazing unit venting
A door assembly includes a doorframe, an insulated glazing unit (IGU), door skins, and a gas passageway. The IGU includes a substantially sealed IGU cavity and a hole communicating with the IGU cavity. The door skins are secured to opposite sides of the doorframe and have openings between which the IGU is provided. The gas passageway provides gas communication between the IGU cavity and the atmosphere outside of the door assembly. The gas passageway contains a gas passage conduit that includes a first end communicating with the IGU cavity through the hole and a second end communicating with atmosphere outside of the door assembly. The gas passageway may contain a gas passage conduit having a first end communicating with the IGU cavity through the first hole and a second end communicating with an air pocket, and a channel connects the air pocket with atmosphere outside of the door assembly.
Security door system
Provided herein is a security door system having a door that includes a door frame comprising elongate door frame members, each having a first holding channel formed therein, and a clamping portion spaced from the first holding channel. The door further includes a mesh covering an opening enclosed by the frame. In addition to the above, the security door system includes a wall frame comprising elongate wall frame members operably coupled to the door frame by one or more hinge members, the hinge members facilitating pivotable movement of the door between open and closed positions and one or a plurality of security members configured to prevent or inhibit levering of the door relative to the wall frame.
Doors and methods for reducing telegraphing therefor
This invention relates to doors having internal blocking components that reduce or eliminate telegraphing of the outer surface of the door facings. In particular, the invention relates to steel-edge steel doors that have internal solid wood blocks that have one or more integral cantilever beams formed into the blocks to interact with the adjoined oppositely arranged door facings in order to eliminate visually apparent door telegraphing. The blocks are modified to contain notches formed therein to form the cantilever beams.
