I couldn't read the print stenciled on the window of this door and didn't see any other markings. Any chance this door is fire rated? Age of home is 1994.

Quote: 1/4" wire glass and ceramic glass are the most common types of glazing used in fire rated doors. The hourly rating of the door dictates the number and maximum size of the vision lights used in the door. page 3... http://www.steeldoor.org/pdfs/118.pdf InterNachi Awards Portal: http://co.nachi.org/inachiawards/ ____________________________________________ "An Education, not just an Inspection" Larry Kage, CMI Lake Ann (Traverse City), Michigan 49650 231 929 3525 Professional Inspector serving the Traverse City, Michigan area and beyond.

If I find that door assembly on a residential garage house passage way here in California, it's going in the report as an unsafe condition. |

Look at the trim holding the glass in its plastic or vinyl, this door is not fire rated.
