NGP L-FRA100-8X32-DKB – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What glass thickness does the NGP L-FRA100 lite kit take?
Three glazing thicknesses work in this frame: 3/16 inch, 1/4 inch, or 5/16 inch. That covers ordinary tempered lites and most wired or laminated glass in that range. Order the glass to the daylight opening your kit size gives you, not to the cut out dimension, since the frame laps the opening.
2) What size cut out do I need in the door for an NGP dark bronze lite kit?
Dark bronze L-FRA100 kits are ordered by cut out size, and the standard range runs from a narrow 5 x 35 inch vision slot up to a full 24 x 64 inch view lite. Common sizes include 12 x 12, 18 x 18, 20 x 30, 24 x 24, 24 x 36, and tall narrow options at 6 x 27, 6 x 36, 6 x 54, and 18 x 60 inches. The number you give is the hole in the door, so cut the door to that dimension and the frame covers the edges.
3) My door already has a vision panel opening that isn't a standard size. Can I still use this kit?
Yes. NGP builds these in uneven and fractional sizes as well as the stock dimensions, which is what makes them workable on retrofit doors where the existing cut out was made on site or by another manufacturer. Measure the actual opening in the door and order to that.
4) Is the NGP low profile lite kit strong enough for a high traffic door in a school or hospital?
It's an 18-gauge cold rolled steel frame with mitered and welded corners plus welded reinforcing clips at each corner, which is what keeps the corners from pulling apart on a door that gets slammed hundreds of times a day. NGP lists it as a commercial product, and it's specified in schools, healthcare, government buildings, retail, warehouses, and multi-tenant residential.
5) What screws come with the NGP L-FRA100 lite kit and are the heads visible?
The kit mounts with #8 x 1-3/4 inch Phillips head sheet metal screws into counter-sunk holes, so the heads sit flush with the frame face rather than standing proud. If you need the glazing to resist tampering, NGP offers Torx security screws as an option in place of the Phillips.
6) Can I get a lite kit that helps with sound transmission between rooms?
An optional silicone acoustical seal is available on this NGP kit for openings where noise control matters, such as exam rooms, classrooms, or offices on a corridor. NGP had that option tested at Architectural Testing, Inc. to ASTM E 90, ASTM E 413, ASTM E 1338, and ASTM E 2235. It's an add on, so specify it when you order, not after.
7) What options should I specify when ordering an NGP lite kit for a corrosive area or an X-ray room?
Beyond the standard 18-gauge cold rolled steel, NGP offers galvanneal A40 steel and zinc electro-plating for openings exposed to moisture or wash down, and lead lining for radiology and other shielded rooms. Torx security screws and the acoustical seal are the other add ons. All of these are ordered up front with the kit, so decide before the cut out size and finish are locked in.
8) Is a metal lite kit the right choice, or should I be looking at a louver for this door?
Two different jobs. A lite kit like the NGP L-FRA100 frames a glass vision panel so people can see through the door, which is what you want at corridor crossings, classroom doors, and anywhere a swinging door creates a blind spot. A louver puts air through the door instead and gives no visibility, which is what mechanical rooms, electrical closets, and storage rooms need. If the requirement is sightline, it's the lite kit; if it's ventilation, it's a louver.
9) Do I have to take the dark bronze finish, or can I get a lite kit to match my door color?
Dark bronze is a powder coat, and it's one of several. NGP's standard finish is gray primer (GPZ) that can be field painted to match the door, and additional powder coat colors are available for design coordination. Dark bronze is the usual pick when the door is anodized bronze aluminum or a bronze painted hollow metal frame and you don't want the lite kit reading as a different part.
10) Can I install an NGP lite kit in a door that's already hung, or does the door have to come off?
The frame installs from both faces of the door and pulls together with #8 x 1-3/4 inch screws through counter-sunk holes, so you need access to both sides of the leaf. On an existing door with the opening already cut, the kit goes on in place. If the opening still has to be cut, take the door down, because cutting a clean square hole in a hung door is how you end up with a frame that won't sit flat.
11) I need to standardize vision panels across a building. Does NGP offer the same lite kit in enough sizes?
Twenty five dark bronze cut out sizes are stocked, running from a 5 x 35 inch slot to 24 x 64 inches, including matched squares at 12 x 12, 18 x 18, 20 x 20, and 24 x 24, and vertical lites at 8 x 30, 8 x 36, 20 x 36, and 24 x 60. Same 18-gauge steel frame and same dark bronze powder coat across all of them, so a mixed set of door sizes still reads as one system.
