An innovative new glass entrance system, the CRL
9-1/2 Inch Wedge-Lock Door Rail System that requires
one corner notch features the exclusive CRL Wedge-Lock Securing
System (U.S. Patents 6,434,905 and 6,912,818 B2. Canadian Patent
2,419,706.), a totally new concept for securing the glass in the
door rail. It works by applying pressure from the bottom of the
door rail, using two glass retaining aluminum extrusions via a flat
stainless steel bar. As this bar is pulled down with socket head
cap bolts, pressure is applied to the glass retaining aluminum
extrusions. The bottom of the extrusions are at an angle and fit
into an angled groove in the door rail. As the glass retaining
extrusions are being pulled down, the angled wedge in the door rail
also pulls the glass retaining extrusions together. This action,
along with our specially designed door retaining gasket, creates a
tremendous amount of force (more than 900 pounds) in our 9-1/2 inch
(228.6 millimeter) Corner Rail. That's 100 pounds per inch. The
Wedge-Lock Glass Securing System gives you more than a secure
attachment to the glass. It provides the fastest installation time
of any door rail system offered to the industry. Experienced
installers can have a door prepared for installation in less than
10 minutes.
Wedge-Lock Door Rails come completely fabricated and ready to
install right out of the carton with the End Caps installed. After
the rail is installed, the only thing required before hanging the
door is to attach the door arm or pivot (not included) to the
adjustable door alignment slide already assembled in the Door Rail.
The Adjustable Door Alignment System feature allows you to adjust
the door 1/8 inch (3.2 millimeter) toward or away from the jamb
without removing the door. This is standard on both top and bottom
rails.
After the door is installed all you need do to adjust the door is
to remove the End Cap. This will reveal three socket head cap
bolts. The center bolt is the securing bolt used to lock the
adjustable slide in position. The two outer bolts are used to
adjust the slide 1/8 inch (3.2 millimeter) in or out. The low
profile of the adjustable slide allows the pivots with slotted
grooves to be moved to a position other than the American Standard
Setback of 2-3/4 inches (69.8 millimeter). This means we can
fabricate them for vertically out-of-square openings.
Other reasons to choose Wedge-Lock Door Rails: Models are available
to accept 1/2 inch (12 millimeter) or 3/8 inch (10 millimeter)
glass; a rigid single component housing that will not shift and
fall out of adjustment over time because it is not made up of two
halves; the internal components do not require removal before
installation; the glass securing pads are designed for longevity in
extreme environments. Note: All Wedge-Lock Door Rails feature the
built-in Jamb Alignment Block, but arms and pivots must be ordered
separately to meet job requirements.
