ADVERTSEMENT To meet the growing need for safer school and institutional environments, Technical Glass Products (TGP), a brand of Allegion, introduces the Fireframes Designer Guard™ System. The multifunctional system is the first fire-rated full-lite glass door system in North America certified to forced entry standards. All components have been system tested together to ASTM E2395, the industry benchmark for forced-entry resistance, and Intertek certified to verify all components perform as intended. To meet the dual need for life safety, the Fireframes Designer Guard System is available with fire ratings up to 60 minutes. It is ideal for school applications, detention centers, institutional buildings and anywhere a security- and fire-rated door system is required.

The Fireframes Designer Guard System consists of a die-rolled steel profile swinging door with sidelite(s) and emulates the appearance of a narrow-profile aluminum storefront. Its durable welded steel frame features precise edges and a professional finish. Glazing consists of FireLite Plus® Forced Entry IGU, a laminated fire-rated glass ceramic that provides impact safety and forced-entry resistance. With narrow frame profiles, clear fire-rated glazing and system specific components, the Fireframes Designer Guard System provides a seamless aesthetic with adjacent non-fire-rated doors. Combining fire safety, security and high design in one product, it is a turnkey solution for building and design professionals working to bolster safety in school and institutional projects.

ADVERTISEMENT TGP’s FireLite family of fire-rated glass ceramic is the exceptionally clear choice for highly visible fire-rated locations. Its superior surface quality, clarity and color emulate the appearance of ordinary window glass for distortion free viewing. Transparent FireLite fire-rated glass ceramic is offered in large sizes to maximize natural light diffusion while ensuring fire and life safety. In addition to transferring daylight, the line of products offers features to help improve energy efficiency and is available with high-impact safety ratings. The UL-classified and labeled products are available with fire ratings up to three hours and can be installed in standard fire-rated frames.
 
When installed in new generation fire-rated doors like TGP’s Fireframes® Designer Series, FireLite fire-rated and impact-safety-rated glass can protect against accidental human breakage while creating design-forward assemblies. With narrow steel profiles and precise European engineering, Fireframes Designer Series’ slender fire-rated door frame profiles provide a sleek, modern alternative to traditional hollow metal door frames. Rather than utilizing traditional hollow metal steel, the system incorporates thin, extruded steel profiles to better resemble the look of non-rated door systems. The framing system accommodates large lites of impact-safety-rated FireLite, resulting in code-compliant, striking door assemblies.
