| Schrägenanschlag beveled door stop Explanation: It seems to me that the doors can be mounted with or without beveled door stops. A Schrägschliff, for example, is a beveled grind. http://www.allglassparts.com/search?q=beveled door stop First, the door needs to be cut to size and bevelled. A well-fitting door requires clearance about the thickness of a nickel on both sides and the top. These edges should also be bevelled inward a couple of degrees for additional clearance when opening, and to prevent hinge binding. http://www.haliburtonlumber.com/building.html Door Stop: A device to stop the swing or movement of a door at a certain point. Also an architectural term defining that part of a door frame against which the door closes. http://professional.schlage.com/app_solutions_glossary.asp |
