| A new one-piece magnet will be introduced in early April. The new magnet is smaller, cleaner looking and less obtrusive than the old. It has also been designed to reduce the magnetic pull by about 25% to make the door easier to open. |
| CrystalLine hinge header brackets have been redesigned to use
four set screws to lock the header and threshold corners in place. The previously used
screws allowed no room for corner re-adjustment and tightening. The new set screws allow
for corner adjustment and will produce higher quality miter joints. The new brackets also
have longer legs that will penetrate further into the header giving a more solid miter
corner. Production using the new brackets is expected in mid-March (the adjustable bracket will be in production in early July). |
| Newly designed U-channel drip sweeps will be introduced for CrystalLine frameless hinge doors in mid-to-late April. These new sweeps for 1/4" and 3/16" glass will greatly simplify sweep installation and, if a sweep is ever damaged, it can easily be replaced by the homeowner. The U-channel drip sweep will become the standard for CrystalLine frameless doors while the current "Stick-on" drip sweep will still be an available option. |
| The SEJ 160 header, originally designed for Signature Pivot
Door applications, will now be offered as an option for oversize CrystalLine hinge door
applications. This header will give a stronger, more ridged structure for wider and taller
CrystalLine installations. Designed to be used with 1/4" glass, a new panel bead will be available in late April that will fit the panel firmly into the header. The header will accept all of the CrystalLine vertical extrusions and is provided with an SEJ 161 snap-in filler piece to finish off the top of the door opening. |
