Split-jamb prehung doors work well in situations where the rough frame is wider than a standard opening. They feature jambs that are split in half lengthwise and the trim casing is already attached to each edge of the jamb, so no mitering is necessary. Split-jamb door installation is different than other interior doors, since each half of the jamb is installed separately, beginning with the side that holds the hinges. This guide explains how to install split-jamb doors in your home.

ASHRAE has published a new guideline for increasing energy efficiency in historic buildings while minimizing the disturbance of the building’s historic character. Section 6.4 of ASHRAE Guideline 34-2019, Energy Guideline for Historic Buildings covers glazing requirements for retrofitting historic buildings, including detailed descriptions of the processes and procedures to achieve greater measured efficiency. The guideline is particularly aimed at providing guidance for ‘listed’ historic buildings; i.e., those formally designated or eligible to be designated as historically significant by a governing body.

A door closer is a spring-loaded hydraulic device that closes a door automatically. The most common kind of door closer is the surface mounted door closer, so called because it is mounted to the surface of the door or header. Also available are concealed overhead door closers that are mounted inside the header above the door or inside the door itself, and floor closers that are installed beneath the threshold.

Security glass has mainly been used by the military and other government entities, such as prisons and jails, police stations and healthcare facilities. The scope has now expanded to markets and industries where security, particularly glass, used to be an afterthought. For instance, until recently, schools, retail outlets, pharmacies, corporate offices, religious institutions, hospitals and data centers were rarely threatened by violent crime, active shooters, digital warfare and natural hazards, and therefore, did not require security glazing.

If you have a glass sliding door in your home, you no doubt appreciate how it creates a nearly seamless visual connection between the indoors and outside, lets natural light stream into the room and makes a small space seem larger. But a glass sliding door simply isn’t as secure as a traditional wood, metal, or fiberglass door. Glass, after all, is easily broken, and a thief who’d rather not make a ruckus by smashing the pane could probably make short work of the vulnerable lock sliding doors tend to have.
