Abstract: A sliding door system having one or more sliding doors, door frames (e.g., static frames of different sizes for different wall thicknesses or adjustable frames that can be used to fit different wall thicknesses), sliding door hardware (e.g., tracks, wheels, soft closers, stops, or the like), header, door receiver, a plurality of seals, or the like. The sliding door system utilizes improvements to the components in order to provide security features, such as electromagnetic (EMC—EMI/RFI) shielding, sound resistance, blast resistance, forced entry and/or ballistic resistance, privacy features, light reduction, fire and/or smoke resistance, or the like to the sliding door system. In particular, the sliding door system allows for the use of the security features with the static or adjustable door frames described herein.

Abstract: A frame may comprise three or more portions comprising an upper portion disposed adjacent an upper end of an opening and two side portions disposed along either edge of the opening, and in some cases a lower portion adjacent a lower end of an opening. A first frame segment and the second frame segment are adjustable with respect to each other in order to extend around the thickness of the opening. A third segment, such as a soffit segment may be utilized to cover at least a portion of the segments. The first frame segment, the second frame segment, and/or the soffit segment may have one or more barriers located between portions of the segments. The first frame segment may be adjusted with respect to the second frame segment, and the adjustment may be made before or after activation of the one or more barriers.

Abstract: Interactive panels are used to display information to one or more users that are interacting with the interactive panels. One or more detection devices (e.g., sensors, communication devices, or the like) detect that users may be located near the interactive panels. The information displayed to the users may be any type of information, such as user information, product information, entity information, area information, or other like information. The interactive panels may be used in any type of barrier, such as doors, walls, fee-standing structures within or outside of a building, adaptable panels that are moveable, or the like. The interactive panels may have energy harvesting layers that at least partially aid in powering the interactive panels and/or components thereof. The interactive panels may have protection layers that at least partially aid in protecting the displays and/or energy harvesting layers of the interactive panels from damage.

Abstract: A cladded door apparatuses having cladding coupled to a door such that during a fire the cladding falls off and/or away from the door such that the door may meet fire ratings. One or more adhesive connectors (e.g., adhesive tape, adhesive sealant, or the like) may be used to couple the cladding directly, or through the use of one or more cladding support members (e.g., rods, panels, or the like), to the door. The cladding may be held a particular distance, or a range of distances, away from the door and/or the door frame to optimize the operation of the cladded door apparatus. The use of the adhesive connectors, the cladding support members, and/or the installation thereof, allows for the proper connection of the cladding to the door during normal operation, but allows the cladding to be uncoupled from the door during a fire.

Abstract: A door assembly provides EMC shielding to provide EMI/RFI protection. The door assembly has an EMC door frame, an EMC door, and EMC seals for maintaining a circuit between the door frame, the floor (e.g., threshold, flooring, etc.), and/or the door. The door assembly may also utilize one or more EMC elements (e.g., EMC tape, paint, adhesive, coatings, caulk, etc.) that may be used to create the circuits between the components of the door assembly and/or with other components of the building (e.g., between the door frame and the wall). The EMC shielding is used to reduce (e.g., limit, block, etc.) the levels of electrogenic interference (EMI)/radio frequency interference (RFI) radiation that is able to pass by the shielding. Moreover, the door assembly also provides improve additional door assembly performance (e.g., sound, weather, air flow, heat, cold, or the like abatement, energy harvesting, or other performance benefits).

Abstract: Composite door systems that are configured for providing safety, security, and resistance to physical impacts or threats (natural and man-caused), and which can be utilized in barrier structures, such as for doors. The composite door systems may include one or more layers, each of which may have one or more fiber layers, such as fabric layers or plastic layers. The composite door systems may further include one or more additional layers of a sheet material, a fill material, or the like. The composite door systems are infinitely customizable and configured to be adapted to a variety of applications, and scalable levels of protection.

Abstract: Door systems having a vision light system that provides resistance to and protection from the elements, such as but not limited to physical impacts (e.g., penetration from projectiles), protection from fire, protection from fluid penetration, or the like. The vision light systems may be customizable in order to provide different protection rating levels depending on the requirements of the structures in which vision light systems will be used. Moreover, the vision light systems may use a light insert having a first restraining member, a second restraining member, and a vision light secured between the first restraining member and the second restraining member. The light insert allows for the ease of replacement of the vision light within the vision light system when the vision light is damaged or the vision light requires upgrading or downgrading of the desired level of protection of the vision light.

Abstract: Composite door systems are provided for use in a protective barrier structure. The composite door systems provide for quick assembly, safety, security, and resistance to physical impacts or threats. The composite door systems may include a shell and a core that can be factory completed or finished on site. The shell may be shipped to the assembly location of the barrier structure, and the core may be formed on site by pouring liquid fill material into a cavity of the shell, which is allowed to cure into a solid fill material. Hardware housings may be operatively coupled to the shell that are made to receive door hardware but resist the liquid full material from filling the hardware housings. The shell, core, and/or hardware housings may provide resistance to damage, such as projectiles to provide enhanced security protection to the occupants or contents of the building structure.

Abstract: Barriers may utilize cores that may be pre-assembled and dropped into a barrier or may be formed within the barriers. The cores may include traditional core materials, biomass materials, graphite polystyrene (GPS) material, or other types of materials. The core may be formed from one or more layers, such as one or more stiffener layers (e.g., stiffener panel, stiffener rods, or the like), one or more matrix layers (e.g., with apertures extending therein), one or more solid layers (e.g., wood, plastic, composite, foam, fiber, or the like), one or more fluid sealed layers (e.g., air, argon, nitrogen, or other like), and/or other types of layers. The barrier edge members, the faces, and/or the core layers described herein may be assembled to each other in traditional ways, such as welding, and/or may be assembled to each other in a way that reduces the amount of welding and/or use of steel.

Abstract: A frame may include three or more portions having an upper portion disposed adjacent an upper end of an opening and two side portions disposed along either edge of the opening, and in some cases a lower portion when the opening is for a window or some doors. A first frame segment and the second frame segment are adjustable with respect to each other in order to extend around the thickness of the door opening. The segments may have one or more thermal barriers, such as a seal (e.g., u-shaped, v-shaped, or the like seal) located between portions of the segments. The first frame segment may be adjusted with respect to the second frame segment. The adjustment of the segments may be made before or after the one or more thermal barriers are installed.
