Cladding (Steel):
Doors can be clad with various sheeting materials. Standard Colourbond profiles are commonly used however specialised profiles can be used. Please consult the manufacturer on the use of non standard sections.
Cladding (Glass):
Doors can be partially or fully glazed for viewing or showroom display and are glazed in accordance with AS1288. Standard glazing uses 6.38mm laminated safety glass. The use of other glass or glazing material should be referred to the manufacturer due to additional weight, deflection, door design & construction. Glazed doors will generally incorporate a kickplate in the base of the bottom leaf. Door size & weight will determine kickplate height.
