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.

The present application discloses a climate chamber comprising at least one housing comprising a door, with an interior volume which is closable with the at least one door, wherein the at least one door comprises an inner wall and an outer wall, wherein the inner wall is formed of a unitary and bendable base body which comprises a polygonal wall section enclosed by side regions, wherein from each of the side regions projects a tongue with its free end, wherein the tongue in a first edge is canted from the wall section into a first section to form a tray and wherein the free end of the tongue is canted back by a second edge into a second section in order to form a sealing seat into which a sealing can be set.

A customer-specific vehicle door leaf, in particular a customer-specific rail-vehicle door leaf, preferably an inwardly opening customer-specific vehicle door leaf for an entry door. The door leaf includes a panel and a general vehicle door leaf, wherein the general vehicle door leaf preferably has a supporting vehicle door leaf frame, and the general vehicle door leaf itself is pressure-tight and/or waterproof, and the panel is provided on the vehicle door leaf frame.

A spacer element for a double glazed article, a kit for assembling the spacer element, and a double glazed article including the spacer element. The spacer element includes a frame section. The frame section has a first substantially planar mounting surface located on a first side of the frame section for mounting a first sheet of glass on the spacer element at a periphery of the first sheet of glass. The frame section also has a second substantially planar mounting surface located on a second side of the frame section opposite the first side, for mounting a second sheet of glass on the spacer element at a periphery of the second sheet of glass. The spacer element also has a cavity located in-between the first and second mounting surfaces for accommodating a lock and/or roller mechanism of the double glazed article at a periphery of the double glazed article.

A thermally-broken ornamental door includes a thermally-broken door and a thermally-broken jamb through which thermal transfer is greatly minimized. The thermally-broken door includes an outer panel and an inner panel that are minimally connected through a plurality of door bridging strips. The thermally-broken jamb includes an outer jamb frame and an inner jamb frame that are minimally connected through a plurality of jamb bridging strips. An insulating foam panel is present between the outer panel and the inner panel while an insulating foam core is present between the outer jamb frame and the inner jamb frame. A window assembly is hingedly mounted into the thermally-broken door and includes a retaining spacer frame that minimizes thermal transfer from an exterior environment to an inner window frame through a glass panel of the window assembly. The retaining spacer frame additionally provides structural support to the glass panel.

A door assembly comprises a rectangular door frame that has a first, second, third, and fourth frame member. The first frame member has an outer surface that has a first pair of parallel slots. A first parallel flange protrudes from and perpendicular to the outer surface between the parallel slots. A vane extends from the first frame member to the second frame member between the third and fourth frame members. The vane has a first end that includes a pair of parallel flanges fitted into the parallel slots such that a rear surface of the first planar flange is arranged between rear edges of the first parallel flanges. A bar is mounted to the rear surface of the first planar flange and configured to hold the rear edges of the first parallel flanges in substantially the same plane as the rear surface of the first planar flange.
