Building or partitioning systems including frames for door sets or glazing panels.

摘要

A building or partitioning system in which door sets or glazing ponds including one or more panes of glass (40) comprise a frame (35) around which are secured spaced pairs of metal clips (42) over which glazing beads (39) fit to define a channel receiving a peripheral edge portion of the pane. The metal clips (42) are secured to the frame (35) by tabs (44) which are pressed out from the metal forming the clips. A sealant may be applied between the glazing beads and the glass. This is destroyed by fire but the pane of glass will remain intact to preserve the fire resistant properties of the system.
