Construction of steel door with sidelite and transom
A steel door with sidelite and transom is constructed from galvanized steel for strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion. The glass panels—either in the door, sidelites, or transom—can be single glass, laminated glass, or double-insulated glass depending on safety, thermal, or acoustic requirements. The sidelite and transom glass are inserted into pre-cut slots in the door frame and secured using a glass frame to ensure stability and safety.
