Glazed area limits

Each door design allows a maximum glazed area and aperture positions. Bigger glass needs a door tested for it.

Doorset, not just a door

The safest route is a complete doorset with frame and hardware tested together. Mixing a leaf from one source with a frame from another needs evidence that covers the combination.
