Laminated Glass for Added Safety

The specified glazing is:

4 mm glass + 0.76 mm PVB + 4 mm glass

The PVB interlayer sits between the two glass panes. If the glass is damaged, the interlayer helps retain the broken pieces rather than allowing the glass to separate completely.

This makes laminated glazing particularly relevant for locations where:

• Occupant safety is important
• Broken glass could fall into an occupied area
• The door is used frequently
• Added security is desired
• The project requires laminated rather than basic single-pane glazing

The product uses double white laminated glass according to the current page.

2.5 mm Aluminum Construction

The listed wall thickness is 2.5 mm, providing the aluminum construction for the door frame.

The current page prints the frame dimension as 07 × 45 mm; this dimension should be confirmed with the YSUN technical team before using it in architectural or fabrication drawings.

Applications

SHANG MEI can be considered for:

• Villa entrances
• Interior residential doors
• Apartment doors
• Kitchen access doors
• Utility and service areas
• Office interiors
• Commercial interiors
• Hospitality spaces
• Renovation projects
• Modern residential developments

The appropriate use depends on the required door size, hardware, security level, weather exposure, and project specifications.

Residential Applications

For residential projects, SHANG MEI can be used where a straightforward hinged aluminum door with laminated glazing is required.

It can suit:

Villas – interior or suitable exterior openings depending on the project specification.

Apartments – rooms and internal access points requiring a glazed swing door.

Townhouses – residential areas where a simple flat-door design is preferred.

Renovations – replacement of older glazed doors with a contemporary aluminum-framed option.

Commercial & Hospitality Applications

The flat swing-door configuration can also be considered for:

• Offices
• Boutique hotels
• Restaurants
• Retail interiors
• Residential common areas
• Service areas
• Building circulation spaces

For exterior commercial applications, the final door configuration should be selected according to the required weather, structural, security, and code performance.

Target Industries

SHANG MEI is relevant to:

Residential Construction – villas, apartments, and townhouse projects.

Architecture & Interior Design – modern door specifications for residential and commercial spaces.

General Contracting – procurement of aluminum glazed swing doors.

Hospitality Construction – hotels, restaurants, and guest facilities.

Renovation Contractors – replacement of existing framed glass doors.

Building Material Suppliers – supply of aluminum doors for construction projects.

Where Laminated Glass Makes Sense

Laminated glass construction is particularly useful in areas where safety is a major consideration.

Compared with ordinary glass, laminated glazing is designed so that the PVB interlayer helps retain the glass fragments after breakage.

For example, this can be relevant to doors located near:

• Walkways
• Living areas
• Offices
• Retail spaces
• Hospitality areas
• Frequently occupied spaces

The final glass specification should always be checked against the project’s applicable safety requirements.

Design Considerations

Before ordering SHANG MEI, confirm:

• Overall door dimensions
• Single or double-door configuration where applicable
• Opening direction
• Glass specification
• Hardware and locking requirements
• Aluminum finish
• Frame dimensions
• Wall opening
• Installation method
• Interior or exterior application
• Applicable building requirements

For exterior use, the complete door assembly should be evaluated for weather exposure and required performance.

SHANG MEI for UAE Projects

SHANG MEI can be considered for UAE residential and architectural projects requiring an aluminum swing door with laminated glazing.

For UAE applications, the final specification should take into account:

• Heat and solar exposure
• Door location
• Interior or exterior installation
• Glass safety requirements
• Hardware
• Weather sealing
• Installation conditions
• Local building regulations

Why Choose SHANG MEI?

The strongest feature of SHANG MEI is its combination of a simple flat swing-door design and laminated safety glass.

Instead of using a standard tempered-glass configuration, the door incorporates a 0.76 mm PVB interlayer, making it a useful choice where retaining broken glass and improving safety are important considerations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the SHANG MEI Flat Door?

SHANG MEI is an aluminum flat swing door designed for residential and architectural applications.

What type of glass does it use?

It uses 4 mm + 0.76 mm PVB + 4 mm double white laminated glass.

Why use laminated glass in a door?

The PVB interlayer helps hold the glass together when broken, reducing the chance of the broken panes separating and falling apart.

What is the aluminum wall thickness?

The listed wall thickness is 2.5 mm.

What is the frame dimension?

The page prints the frame dimension as 07 × 45 mm. YSUN should confirm this measurement before it is used for fabrication or project drawings.

Is SHANG MEI a sliding door?

No. It is a flat swing door.

Where can SHANG MEI be used?

It can be considered for villas, apartments, offices, hospitality spaces, interior openings, renovation projects, and other suitable architectural applications.

Is laminated glass better than tempered glass?

They serve different purposes. Laminated glass uses a PVB interlayer to retain broken glass, while tempered glass is designed to strengthen the glass and break into smaller fragments. The appropriate choice depends on the project’s safety and design requirements.

Can SHANG MEI be used as an exterior door?

It may be suitable for exterior applications depending on the final configuration. Weather sealing, hardware, dimensions, and project-specific performance requirements should be confirmed before exterior installation.
