10 mm Glass Door Fittings: Same Six Lines, One Extra Lock
For a 10 mm frameless glass door, order the six lines used at 12 mm: floor spring F101, bottom patch F110, top patch F111, a head fitting, patch lock F123 and a pull handle. On a pair, one GL125 SS can replace two F123.
The set to order
| Part | What to check | Models |
|---|---|---|
| Floor spring | 1 per leaf. The same model as a 12 mm door. Recess size comes from its product page. | F101 |
| Bottom patch | 1 per leaf. Listed for 8 to 12 mm, so 10 mm sits mid-range. | F110 |
| Top corner patch | 1 per leaf. Listed for 8 to 12 mm. | F111 |
| Head fitting for the top pin | 1 per leaf where there is no glass above the door. Write it on your inquiry, and it is confirmed against your drawing. | |
| Patch lock, single door | 1 per leaf. Bolt drops into a floor socket. | F123 |
| Pair lock for 10 mm only | 1 per pair, in place of two F123. Listed for 8 to 10 mm. | GL125 SS |
| Pull handle | 1 pair per leaf. 100 and 102 use a 32 mm tube, 600 mm long, and start at 10 mm glass. F132 also takes 8 mm. | 100, 102, F132 |
What moves when the glass drops from 12 mm to 10 mm
The model numbers stay. Four checks change, so a 12 mm order can be reused once these rows are settled.
| Check | 12 mm door | 10 mm door | What to do |
|---|---|---|---|
| Glass weight | About 30 kg per square meter | About 25 kg per square meter | Work out the leaf again, using the table below |
| Lock on a pair | F123 on each leaf, or 410 once confirmed | GL125 SS becomes a third option | Decide before the glass is cut |
| Pull handles 100 to 107 | Top of their 10 to 12 mm range | Bottom of that range | Do not go thinner than 10 mm with these handles |
| Clamp liner | Ask which liner suits 12 mm | Ask which liner suits 10 mm | State 10 mm on the order, because F110 to F114 span 8 to 12 mm |
The pair decision: two F123 or one GL125 SS
This is the one real choice a 10 mm pair gives you. It changes the glass cuts and the floor work, so settle it first.
| Check | F123 on each leaf | GL125 SS across the meeting edges |
|---|---|---|
| Quantity per pair | 2 | 1 |
| What holds the door shut | A bolt on each leaf, down into a floor socket | Two bodies locked to each other |
| Floor work at the meeting edges | A socket recess for each leaf | None shown in the photographs |
| Glass preparation | Notch at the glass edge, cut before tempering | Listed to fit without cutting or drilling |
| Faces | Euro profile cylinder, function confirmed on your quotation | Key on one face, thumbturn on the other |
| Thickest glass listed | 12 mm | 10 mm |
| Listed finish | None stated, so confirm it | SS |
Work out the leaf again
Allow 2.5 kg for each square meter of leaf and each millimeter of glass. That is a general glass figure, not a product rating, and it leaves out the handle and lock.
A lighter leaf is not a rated leaf. We list no door weight for F101 or the patches, so ask for that figure in writing with your actual size.
| Leaf size | 10 mm leaf | 12 mm leaf |
|---|---|---|
| 900 × 2,100 mm | 47 kg (104 lb) | 57 kg (125 lb) |
| 1,000 × 2,400 mm | 60 kg (132 lb) | 72 kg (159 lb) |
| 1,100 × 2,700 mm | 74 kg (164 lb) | 89 kg (196 lb) |
Where a 10 mm order goes wrong
- The glass changes to 12 mm after the order: GL125 SS no longer fits, and the pair goes back to F123.
- The glass changes to 8 mm: pull handles 100 to 107 no longer fit, and F132 is the handle we list for it.
- The fixed panes are 12 mm and the door is 10 mm: write the thickness beside every pane, not once for the job.
- The pair is in a finish other than stainless steel: GL125 SS is listed in SS only, so check the lock before the finish is agreed.
- A handle is picked by photograph alone: 108, 109, 110, 112 and F109 list no glass thickness, so have 10 mm confirmed on the quotation.
- The door is on a way out: mount GL125 SS with the thumbturn on the inside, so nobody needs a key to leave.
What to send for a 10 mm quotation
- Leaf width and height in millimeters.
- "10 mm" written beside every pane on the drawing.
- Single door or pair, and which lock you chose for the pair.
- Whether the door has glass above it or beside it.
- Handle model and the number of pairs.
- The finish, for every line.
Questions buyers ask
Can I use the same patch fittings on 10 mm and 12 mm glass?
Yes. F110, F111, F112, F113 and F114 are all listed for 8 to 12 mm glass. State 10 mm on the order and ask which liner goes with it.
Is GL125 SS the better lock for a 10 mm pair?
It suits a pair when you want no floor sockets and no lock notch in the glass. Choose two F123 when you want each leaf bolted to the floor, or when the glass may change to 12 mm.
How much does a 10 mm glass door weigh?
About 25 kg per square meter of glass. A 1,000 × 2,400 mm leaf is about 60 kg (132 lb), before the handle and lock.
Do pull handles 100 to 107 fit 8 mm glass?
No. They are listed for 10 to 12 mm. For 8 mm glass, order F132, which is listed for 8 to 12 mm.
Does a 10 mm door need a different floor spring?
We list one floor spring for glass doors, F101, for both thicknesses. Give the leaf size and weight on your inquiry and ask for its door weight figure in writing.
