SPACER COLORS
Stainless Steel is the standard.
Gray
Black (set up as default for our account.)
Grill Between Glass Colors
Minimum IG Thickness when grills between glass: 9/16″
Green, White, Bronze, Tan, Brick Red, Black
Width Sizes: 5/8″ (standard), 13/16″, 3/4″, 1″, 1/2″
The only ½” bar we stock is SDL or the anodized bars that get covered with exterior grill to make them look like a simulated divided lite unit. We do not have any painted bar in ½” although we have had folks use the black SDL as a painted bar.
Replacement for oozing
On rectangle operable type units for DH and CSMT products we need to be at ½” or under on our sightline from the edge of the glass to where the channel or PIB sealant extends. If there is an area where it is more than ½”, than we would consider it a reject. Large direct sets and shapes would be 5/8”. If they are more than that we will replace them at no charge.
Absolute Black Lami Glass
$15.62 sq ft and it will take 7-10 days to get. You can insulate it with any other type of glass like 3.1mm up to 5.7mm as long as it’s tempered. This black lami glass will conduct heat and runs the risk of heat stress breakage. Just add the $15.62 sq/ft to the standard IGU pricing. 9-17-24
Fire Rated Glass info
Leave safety film on when installing. Chris suggests placing it towards the exterior/elements of the weather.
