Commercial Door Window Kits (Lites) & Door Louvers
Provide your facility with the perfect balance of visibility, security, and airflow. Our commercial door louvers and vision lite kits are engineered for seamless integration into 1-3/4" thick metal or wood doors. From UL-listed fire-rated louvers for life-safety compliance to heavy-duty security louvers for high-risk areas, we offer the high-durability hardware required to meet rigorous building codes. Whether you are installing no-vision louvers for total privacy or Pyran Platinum F glass for fire-rated stairwells, our kits provide a secure, professional finish for any commercial opening.
Window Lites
Fire-Rated Pyran Glass Kits
For the highest level of life-safety protection, Pyran Platinum F glass is the industry standard. This ceramic glass is UL-listed for up to 3 hours and provides a clear, wireless view. It is specifically engineered to withstand the thermal shock of fire hoses, making it essential for stairwells and elevator lobbies.
Laminated Safety Glass Kits
Laminated safety glass is a top-tier choice for schools and offices. If the glass breaks, the internal interlayer holds the fragments together, reducing the risk of injury. These kits provide a clear, distortion-free view while meeting CPSC Cat II impact safety requirements.
Tempered Glass Kits
Tempered glass is heat-treated for superior strength and impact resistance. When broken, it crumbles into small, dull cubes rather than sharp shards. These kits are perfect for interior non-rated doors where high durability and safety are required at a cost-effective price point.
Lexan & Polycarbonate Glass Kits
In environments where glass breakage is a frequent concern, Lexan (polycarbonate) glass kits offer nearly unbreakable protection. These panels are 250 times stronger than glass, making them the preferred solution for correctional facilities, psychiatric wards, and high-security storage areas.
Metal Window Kits (Frames Only)
Our metal window kits feature self-extinguishing, 18-gauge cold-rolled steel frames. These "slimline" profiles are designed to fit standard door thicknesses and are primed for painting to match any door finish. They are the ideal choice for contractors who already have glass on-site and need a high-quality, secure frame for installation.
Glazing Tape & Accessories
A professional, fire-rated installation requires high-quality glazing tape. Our double-sided butyl or intumescent tape ensures a smoke-tight seal between the glass and the metal frame. This section includes the specialized gaskets and fasteners, including thru-bolts for secure frame attachment, required for a code-compliant assembly.
Steel Door Louvers
Fire-Rated Door Louvers
For openings that require both airflow and a fire-life safety rating, fire-rated door louvers are a mandatory requirement. These units feature an intumescent strip or a fusible link mechanism that automatically snaps the blades shut when temperatures reach a specific threshold (typically 165°F). This prevents the spread of flames and smoke through the ventilation opening, maintaining the door’s UL fire rating.
Adjustable Blade Louvers
Adjustable blade louvers offer the highest level of environmental control by allowing users to manually regulate airflow. Featuring a pivot mechanism and operator lever, these "Z-blade" units can be adjusted from fully open to completely closed. They are the ideal solution for seasonal ventilation in warehouses or mechanical rooms where preventing heat loss in the winter is as important as cooling in the summer.
Security Louvers
Security louvers are engineered for high-risk environments where ventilation must be balanced with forced-entry resistance. Constructed from heavy-gauge steel and featuring security-grade fasteners, these louvers often include a secondary internal mesh or security bars to prevent the passage of objects. They are the industry standard for correctional facilities, psychiatric wards, and high-value storage rooms.
No-Vision
(Sight-Proof) Louvers
No-vision louvers utilize an inverted-V or inverted-Y blade design to provide maximum airflow while ensuring 100% privacy. These "sight-proof" units prevent anyone from looking through the door at any angle, making them the essential choice for restrooms, changing rooms, and sensitive data centers. Despite the blocked sightlines, they maintain high free-area percentages for efficient HVAC performance.
