Blumcraft’s Series 1301 tempered glass doors have 3/4" high top and bottom rails to provide a “MORE GLASS ... LESS METAL” look. Series 1301 doors are versatile, as they can be adapted for Dorma BTS-80 or Jackson 900 floor closers, adjustable pivots, and door position switches. With slight modifications to the top rail, Series 1301 doors are also adaptable to center-pivoted overhead closers, standard walking beam top pivots, electromagnetic and electromechanical locks.
Series 1301’s low profile eliminates the need for tall bottom rails that are required to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Doors and matching sidelights are available in 1/2" and 3/4" tempered glass.
All Blumcraft tubular panic and deadbolt hardware can be installed on Series 1301 doors.
Please see the “Suggested Design Guidelines” profile for further information regarding design and specification of Blumcraft Series 1301 tempered glass doors.
Series 1301 doors can be modified and adapted for a variety of overhead automatic or power assisted operators. The top rail is slightly increased in size to accommodate the direct drive spindle or an exposed arm of operators manufactured by Besam, LCN, Horton, or Norton; other operators on request. To insure compatibility, contact Blumcraft with the model number. The bottom rails can remain 3/4" high or match the top rails depending on the architect’s preference.

While the 640C Door has many quality features, as an alternate Blumcraft suggests using the Series 1301 Door With Less Metal and More Glass which eliminates the cumbersome rails.
This distinctive feature is the main characteristic that separates the two. With the top and bottom rails being only 3/4" high, the 1301 Series Door achieves the ultimate in architectural beauty and design.
These doors are versatile, as they can be adapted for Dorma BTS-80 or Jackson 900 floor closers, adjustable pivots, and door position switches. With slight modifications to the top rail, Series 1301 Doors are also adaptable to center-pivoted overhead closers, standard walking beam top pivots, electromagnetic and electromechanical locks.
With the Series 1301’s low profile, the need for tall bottom rails that are required to comply with A.D.A. is no longer necessary. Doors and matching sidelights are available in 1/2" or 3/4" tempered glass.
All Blumcraft tubular and panic hardware can be installed on Series 1301 Doors.
The 640C Series Door certainly has its own distinctive look but has some disadvantages. In certain situations some building codes and usage may indicate that the bottom lock shown is not in compliance with The Americans With Disabilities Act since it is out of reach of the handicapped. Another is that the projection of the bottom rail from the face of the glass can interfere with a wheelchair.
