The most popular vision panel styles are shown below, although other designs can be accommodated. All aperture dimensions shown are cut-out sizes and the appropriate margin should be deducted to give the clear view size. A selection of glazing systems is available to suit styles as shown. All apertures shown can be supplied with either a hardwood bolection or steel trim bead, to either non-rated, FD30 or FD60 fire resistance.

Beaded glazing systems

Hardwood Bolection
This system is suitable for most aperture shapes. Beads can be left clean or painted to match the door face, and fixed with steel pins or brass cup screws. Apertures are single glazed with either wired or clear glass.

Steel Bead
Using a stainless steel or powder coated steel trim to match or contrast with the door face. Apertures can be circular, rectangular or square and are single glazed with either wired or clear glass.

Louvres and grills
Air transfer grills or louvres can be fitted to some Plasform doors: please contact us to discuss particular requirements.

Intelliglass®

Intelliglass® obscurable vision panels provide the ideal solution where privacy may be required, for example in environments such as hospitals, consulting rooms, banks, therapy rooms, commercial offices and schools.

Intelliglass® vision panels utilise liquid crystals which are sandwiched between two layers of transparent conductive film to make LC Privacy Film. The film is then laminated between two pieces of glass. When electricity is applied to the film the liquid crystals line up and the vision panel is clear. When the power is turned off, the liquid crystals return to their normal positions and turn the glass from clear to obscured.

The panels can be changed from clear to frosted at the flick of a switch. This intelligent glazing system can be automatically or remotely controlled by connection to a PC or by wireless connection or simply a switch adjacent to the doorset. As there are no protrusions to cause dust or dirt build-up, they are ideal for locations where hygiene is of prime importance.

The high-tech Intelliglass® vision panel solution obviates the need for cumbersome mechanical systems, blinds, shutters or curtains.

Intelliglass® is available in two standard sizes: 400mm x 400mm and 800mm x 250mm. For non-standard sizes please contact our Technical Services Department on: 01773 530500 or email: enquiries@leaderflushshapland.co.uk
