We will get into this exception next.įinally glazing that is adjacent to the fixed panel of a patio door is not required to be tempered. If this is the case, this exception references you to apply Section R308.4.3 to the glazing to determine if it is considered a hazardous location. The next exception is for glazing adjacent to doors that serve a closet or storage area that is 3 feet or less in depth. This section only pertains to glass or windows that are generally located adjacent to a door. If a window meets those parameters, it must be tempered. There is another section that we will be getting into a little later that pertains to glazing in windows. Something important to note here is that this only pertains to glazing adjacent to doors that are subject to this section.
