Gutmann Middle East LLC in Dubai Investment Park 2 offers this door system in the UAE. We cut, assemble and glaze it at our Dubai factory to the manufacturer's specification and hang the doors ourselves.
Where a compact hinged door is enough
Inside a mall or a covered podium the door never sees rain or direct afternoon sun, and a deep insulated section brings little. The same goes for office partitions, back-of-house doors and a side door under a deep villa overhang. For these GWD 050-55 keeps the frame slim and the build simple, and the identical glass bead grooves inside and out let the glazing side be chosen per door.
What the published figures cover
The supplier publishes a water test of 600 Pa under ASTM E 331-00, wind class B3/C3 and air permeability class C4. These suit sheltered and moderately exposed openings. The page does not state a thermal break, a glass thickness, leaf sizes or a burglar class, so we confirm each of them with the supplier for the door in question before we quote.
Angle brackets and joint connectors are pressed or pinned, and gaskets and fittings are shared across the system, which keeps spare parts simple for a facility manager.
GWD 050-55 or GWD 070
GWD 070 is the insulated door of the range: a 70 mm series with glass up to 55 mm in the leaf, burglar resistance up to RC 3 / WK 3 and watertightness 1000 Pa around the frame. Use GWD 070 for an entrance facing the sun or the street; GWD 050-55 for doors inside or under cover.
GWD 050-55 is a slim, straightforward GUTMANN hinged door for shopfronts, partitions and sheltered doors where a deep insulated section would be wasted.
