12 mm glass door fittings: six lines, one complete door
One 12 mm frameless glass door takes six lines: floor spring F101, bottom patch F110, top corner patch F111, a head fitting for the top pin, patch lock F123 and a pull handle such as 100. A pair doubles all six lines.

Which models take 12 mm glass
12 mm (1/2 in) is the top of the range for most of the glass door line, so check each model before it goes on the order. One lock we list does not reach 12 mm at all.
| Models | Listed glass | On a 12 mm door |
|---|---|---|
| F110, F111, F112, F113, F114 | 8 to 12 mm | Yes |
| F123 patch lock | 8 to 12 mm | Yes |
| Pull handles 100, 102, 104, 105, 106, 107 | 10 to 12 mm | Yes |

| GL125 SS double door lock | 8 to 10 mm | No |

What changes for a pair
A pair is two complete doors that meet in the middle. Only the lock line offers a real choice, and at 12 mm that choice is narrow.
| Line | Single door | Pair |
|---|---|---|
| Floor spring F101 | 1 | 2 |
| Bottom patch F110 | 1 | 2 |
| Top corner patch F111 | 1 | 2 |
| Head fitting for the pin | 1 | 2 |
| Patch lock F123 | 1 | 2, one per leaf, each with a floor socket |
| Pull handle | 1 pair through the glass | 2 pairs through the glass |
More for a pair
- Give the gap between the two leaves on your drawing.
- Handing of each fitting is confirmed against your drawing.
- 410 is a two-body lock across the meeting edges, and it can replace two F123 once its glass thickness is confirmed.
- GL125 SS is the other meeting-edge lock, and it stops at 10 mm glass.
Lines to add for glass around the door
| If the opening has | Add | Replaces |
|---|---|---|
| A glass transom | F112 or F114 | The head fitting line |
| A glass transom and a side panel | F112 or F114, and F113 | The head fitting line |
Order in this sequence
- Fix the models first, because each one sets a cut in the glass or the floor.
- Confirm door weight with the supplier. A 12 mm leaf weighs about 30 kg per square meter, so 1,000 × 2,400 mm is about 72 kg (159 lb).
- Send the notch drawings from the F110 and F111 product pages to your glass processor.
- Have every notch and handle hole cut before tempering, because tempered glass cannot be cut afterward.
- Prepare the floor recess for F101: footprint 308 × 108 mm, case depth 40.5 mm, cover plate 129 × 321.5 mm.
- Set the exact recess and spindle position from your drawing.
- Keep one finish across the door. F101 is recorded in SS, AB, SN, AC and PB, and F110 in SS.
Questions buyers ask
What fittings does a 12 mm frameless glass door need?
Six lines: a floor spring, a bottom patch, a top corner patch, a head fitting for the top pin, a patch lock and a pull handle. Add transom and side panel patches if there is glass around the door.
Can I use the GL125 SS lock on a 12 mm pair?
No. GL125 SS is recorded for 8 to 10 mm glass. On a 12 mm pair, order F123 on each leaf, or 410 once its glass thickness is confirmed against your drawing.
Does the same list work for 10 mm glass?
Yes. Every model on this list also takes 10 mm glass. GL125 SS also becomes an option for a pair, and each leaf weighs about 25 kg per square meter instead of 30 kg.
Is there one set I can order for the whole door?
The Glass Door Patch Fitting Set photograph shows five patches, a patch lock and a floor spring. We list no contents for it, so compare the packing list on your quotation with the six lines here.
What should I send to get this list quoted?
Send the door size, glass thickness, single door or pair, any transom or side panel, the finish, and a drawing of the opening. That is enough to confirm every line.
