CHAPTER 12: GLAZING
Use caution when moving and installing the glass panels . These panels are constructed with
tempered glass . Any sharp objects that come in contact with the glass may cause the glass to
craze . NABCO Entrances, Inc . is not responisble for broken glass .
Attention: Per Chapter 24 of the International Building Code (IBC), all glass must comply with ANSI Standard
Z97 .1 (Glass and Settings Blocks are not provided by NABCO) .
Note: Cross-Blocking helps direct glass weight away from the strike edge of the door, to prevent sagging and possibly dragging
on the floor or threshold.
