The door viewport with cross-door locking bar laterally spans the door frame with a viewport exterior lip on the door and an interior face plate near an interior of the door forming, in one instance, a mid-bar capture channel. Alternatively, the viewport has an interior extension coacting with a complementary interlocking element on the cross-bar's midpoint. Either construct holds the cross-door locking bar substantially at its mid-point. Cross-bar terminal end mounts removably attach the cross-bar to the door frame. One type of mount is an L-bracket. Another type of mount is a controllable transverse extension member forcing a door frame plate against the door frame. A user-controlled extension means forces the cross-door locking bar away from the door frame plate, with either a screw drive system or a grooved rod with spring loaded lever control.

A reinforcement system and method for a door having a window provides for a window shutter that slides into a position covering the window during a shooting incident. An elongated bar has one end pivotally supported by a securing bracket, which is attached to a wall adjacent the door. A release pin is attached to the securing bracket; it normally supports the bar in a vertical stored position. A holster is secured to the wall on the opposite side of the door in alignment with the securing bracket. The shutter, the securing bracket, and the holster are formed from a ballistic resistant material. During a shooting incident, the user moves the shutter to cover the window, removes the release pin and pivots the bar into a horizontal position barring the door. The free end of bar is received in the holster, thereby reinforcing the door independently of the door frame and door hinges.

A window safety plate includes a window-mounted frame, a bullet resistant plate, and a locking mechanism. The window mounted frame includes an upper track, a lower track, a first stopper, and a second stopper. The upper track and the lower track are terminally connected to the first stopper. The upper track and the lower track are terminally connected to the second stopper, opposite of the first stopper. The bullet resistant plate is slidably engaged within the upper track, the lower track, the first stopper, and the second stopper so that a window section of a door can be concealed from inside of a room. The locking mechanism is integrated in between the window-mounted frame and the bullet resistant plate thus enabling an intruder to slide back the bullet resistant plate from outside of the room.

This invention is directed toward a window for a garage door panel, where the window has an interior frame and an exterior frame. Both the interior and exterior frame have straight members that are secured to each other through the parts of the garage door that surround the opening with screws and screw receptacles. Connecting the frame members are corner braces, than come in a variety of designs, with some being invisible after installation and others forming a decorative corner to the window.

Embodiments of the present invention provides a system and method of a smart door. The system includes a camera, a display interface, and an internal rechargeable battery. In some embodiments, a camera and a display interface are mounted on both sides of the door, thus allowing users to communicate through the door while the door forms a physical barrier between the communicating users. The system networks multiple doors together. At least one door can track occupants location and entrance/exit within a structure. The system also provides the capability to give user wellness information and operate fully with biometrics

Provided are a front door assembly of a drum washing machine and a drum washing machine. The front door assembly includes an observation bowl glass. The observation bowl glass includes an edge portion, a central portion, and a transition portion connecting the edge portion with the central portion. The central portion protrudes relative to the edge portion. The front door assembly further includes at least one protrusion. The at least one protrusion is arranged at a junction of the central portion and the transition portion. A protruding direction of the at least one protrusion is the same as a protruding direction of the central portion relative to the edge portion.

A glazing system that facilitates protecting windows from damage caused by high winds. The glazing system, for use with windows in doors, transoms, and in windows adjacent to doorways is an extruded polymeric frame that surrounds and supports and seals the window in place. The frame includes a stacked screw boss accessible from the exterior after removing a lineal cap. The screw boss receives screws use to hold a panel in place over the window during high winds to protect the window and which panel may be easily and quickly removed when the high winds pass. The interior side of the frame also has a screw path usable for attaching brackets for blinds to the back of the frame.
