eittus 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2009 Hi, I wanted a 10mm thick glass sliding door. However, I understand from a glass contractor that there is only 8mm thick glass sliding door. Is this true? I am afraid that if it is too thin, it might break when someone knock into it. Help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beany0811 1 Report post Posted August 24, 2009 the std thickness for tempered glass doors are 10mm, if i am not wrong; this is the min. there are those who choose 12mm for higher doors; but they are much heavier. there are many useful threads in this forum on the various aspects of reno - i also got to know the above fm my daily reading Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xaven88 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2009 Hi, The optimal thickness is 10mm and the glass criteria must be tempered. Its was to ensure safety for the users especially the height was built to at least 2.1m. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
