File number for labeled fire-rated assemblies is R13377. Tests performed in accordance with UL 9, UL 10B, UL 10C, CSFM 43.7, NFPA 80, NFPA 252, NFPA 257, CAN4 S-104, and CAN4 S-106. Approved for use in Los Angeles: LARR 25798.Width of Exposed Glazing (in.)Height of Exposed Glazing (in.) 20 min. to 60 min. FireLite is made from transparent glass-ceramic which appears to have a warmer earth tone when compared to the blue green tint of typical float glass. Like float glass, FireLite ceramic will not demonstrate a highly perceptible color once installed in a frame.
FireLite also features ultraHD® Technology, for improved color, clarity and surface quality. See the ultraHD® difference. View the available surface grades below or see our Premium FireLite FAQ for more information. These surface options are best reviewed prior to specification.

Traditional Hollow Metal Steel Frames Fire-Rated Doors and Frames TGP glazing can be used in any approved fire-rated door and frame assemblies. Hollow metal steel frames are supplied by others. The time, in minutes or hours, that materials or assemblies can be expected to prevent flames and smoke from spreading.
As heat develops within the source area, pressure within the enclosed room begins to build relative to the pressure outside. Once the fire reaches equilibrium in the positive pressure zone, smoke, hot gases and flames are forced through any openings in the door or window assembly. Testing to the UL 10C standard more closely simulates real fire conditions. Blocks radiant and conductive heat transfer from one side of the glass to the other. A required characteristic of glass used as a wall. Classified and labeled by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.® (UL), an independent product safety certification organization. Immediately following a furnace test, heated glass is subjected to water from a fire hose. The cooling, impact and erosion created by the hose stream tests the integrity of the glass. In the U.S., the hose stream test is required for all fire ratings over 45 minutes (all fire ratings require it in Canada). Available in stainless steel frame finish options for increased design flexibility.
The amount of force glass can be expected to withstand. Testing simulates different levels of impact, from that of a small child to a full grown adult. FireLite IGU is a fire-rated insulated glass ceramic unit that also complies with energy codes. It is designed for use in exterior applications where energy codes require an insulated product, or for interior applications with special needs such as sound reduction. Withstands continuous temperatures to 1292° F for use in high efficiency heating appliances. The ability of glass ceramic to withstand sudden heating, cooling, or both without cracking, shattering or exploding out of the frame. The ability of the glass to stop various types of ammunition. Ratings are assigned in levels from 1 to 8, with a Level 8 rating being the highest (able to stop a 7.62mm rifle lead core full metal copper jacket, military ball). The capacity of an element in a building structure to support a weight in addition to its own.AcousticalFor over 50 years, Overly has been the industry leader in the design, testing, and manufacturing of Architectural Acoustic Door and Window Systems.
All of Overly's acoustical products have been tested to ASTM standards as complete operable systems at Riverbank Acoustical Laboratories of Geneva, IL to ensure they perform as intended. Metal DoorsUp to STC 57 Wood DoorsUp to STC 49 Fixed WindowsUp to STC 55 Because acoustical doors are constructed differently than traditional hollow metal doors, certain considerations must be made when selecting hardware for them. Some options work better than others and some do not work at all. Over 100 years of experience has taught us that without the correct hardware, acoustical doors can perform below their anticipated sound control levels. This is typically due to hardware that is incompatible with the unique sound control accessories used on acoustical doors. To assist in a trouble free installation and years of quality operation, we recommend reviewing the documents below to ensure that no problems arise. If you are looking to specify hardware not listed in these publications, feel free to contact our engineering department at (800) 979-7300.

You can select the models from the drop down list at the top of each page.Acoustical Metal Doors Hardware Compatibility Information A must have for hardware specifiers. An informative look at possible incompatibilities when specifying hardware for hollow metal acoustical door products. Acoustical Wood Doors Hardware Compatibility Information A must have for hardware specifiers. An informative look at possible incompatibilities when specifying hardware for hollow wood acoustical door products. In addition to acoustical testing, Overly has successfully tested many of its acoustical products to the latest UL fire test standards, including UL 10B (neutral pressure), UL10C/UBC 7-2 (positive pressure). We provide all fire labeling under Underwriter's Laboratories procedures. Metal doors are available with up to 3 hour fire ratings. Wood doors are available with up to 3/4 hour ratings.
Tested and certified in accordance with UL 10C and UBC 7-2 for doors and UBC 7-4 for windows. Personnel metal and wood doors can be manufactured up to 4'-0" x 8'-0" singles; 8'-0" x 8'-0" pairs. However, for steel doors there is really no limit. We have standardized a number of oversized units or can custom design to your exact specification. Small sizes for hatches and access panels are also available. We offer a full line of single and pair swinging acoustical doors. Vision light configurations range from peep sites to full light dual glazed window systems. Single and bi-parting sliding door systems are also available with either manual or power controls. Tandem assemblies, as well as double egress options are available as well. Most of our acoustical products use an applied acoustical gasket / stop. This gasket design integrates into normal architectural designs because it is similar to standard hollow metal profiles. Other options include split style frames, as well as tandem, four-sided, and double egress configurations.
