G2G – Glass Dry Joints – Installation Guide

The following points should be taken into consideration when installing G2G:

G2G Seal
  • To ensure the best bond between the G2G profile and the glass an application temperature between 18 to 35 degrees centigrade is recommended.
  • It is recommended that where possible the joints and glass are equalised to room temperature 24 hours prior to fitting.
  • A quality polished edge works best for maximum bond strength. When fitting the joints on site it is important that these polished edges are clean, dust and grease free.
  • An alcohol wipe is recommended.
  • It is essential that every panel is shimmed and plumbed (particular the first panel) vertically/horizontally and centralised in the base and head channels.
  • It is recommended that prior to fitting the joint each following glass panel is placed side by side to check for bow and swapped for a flush panel if there are any showing this affect.
  • It is recommended that ratchet strap/suckers are used when fitting panels to achieve the best contact pressure.
  • The G2G tape has excellent initial tack and contact bond in most conditions.
  • It strengthens to its maximum bond strength 12 hours after fitting.
  • The compressive qualities of the G2G tape takes up some tolerance variations in the glass. This can be maximized through ensuring the glass has been cut accurately on well maintained machinery.

G2G – Glass Door Seals – Installation Guide

  • A quality polished edge works best for maximum bond strength. When fitting the joints on site it is important that these
    polished edges are clean, dust and grease free.
  • An alcohol wipe is recommended.
  • A nominal gap of 5mm clearance is required to be left between the door leaf and the adjoining panes.
  • For retrofit applications a gap of between 3.5-8mm is suitable.
  • To ensure effective sealing at the threshold, the flexible fin of the Top and Bottom seal should be lined up with the
    floor and then applied to the door panel.
  • Where a glazed over panel is used the Side Seal should be used, at the head. When installed it should be positioned the
    same direction as on the leading edge.
  • Trimming will be required of the side seal flippers around top and bottom hinge patches and additional hardware.
  • Top and bottom seal should be fitted whilst the door is in a closed position. The top and bottom seal can accommodate
    a threshold gap of up to 12mm.

FAQ

Q. What glass thicknesses do the G2G components accommodate?

A. The G2G range is suitable for 10 and 10.8mm glass, 12 and 12.8mm glass, and 15mm glass.

Q. Will the joints fit on standard and laminated glass?

A. Yes, all have been designed to do so. Laminated glass may see the joint dip below the surface; however,
this is widely accepted because it does not break the surface eye line.

Q. What type of edge finish is recommended?

A. A quality polished edge works best for maximum bond strength. When fitting the joints on site, it is important that these polished edges are clean, dust and grease free; the use of an alcohol wipe to clean the flat polished edges is recommended.
It is recommended to ask your glass supplier to cut 0.5mm smaller on the flat edge than is stated for fit and function purposes.
It is ok to have a smaller flat edge;a larger flat edge than stated can cause the joint NOT to bond.

Q. What Bevel / Chamfer / Arris are required?

FAQ Bevel Chamfer Arris

A. To ensure maximum performance, the glass should be cut with a flat polished edge and a bevel of 45 degrees, as shown in the illustration above. This is the same for use on both standard and laminated glass:

Q. What polished edge width is required?

A. Standard glass – all G2G profiles:
standard g2g

For standard glass panels of 10, 12 and 15mm, the polished flat edge of the glass should be cut to a maximum width of 6.5mm for 10mm glass, 8.5mm for 12mm glass, and 11.5mm for 15mm glass.
This is the same for all of the G2G – glass partition joints, when using standard glass panels.

NB: it is recommended to ask your glass supplier to cut ½mm smaller on the flat edge than is stated for fit and function purposes.
It is ok to have a smaller flat edge; a larger flat edge than stated can cause the joint NOT to bond.

Laminated glass – all G2G profiles:
laminated g2g profiles

For laminated glass panels of 10.8, 12.8 and 15.8mm, the polished flat edge of the glass should be cut to a maximum width of 6.5mm for 10.8mm glass, 8.5mm for 12.8mm glass, 11.5mm for 15.8mm glass, and 13.5mm for 16.8mm glass.
This is the same for all of the G2G – glass partition joints, when using laminated glass panels.
NB: it is recommended to ask your glass supplier to cut ½mm smaller on the flat edge than is stated for fit and function purposes. It is ok to have a smaller flat edge; a larger flat edge than stated can cause the joint NOT to bond.

Standard and laminated glass – Flexible ‘I’ Joint profiles:
flexible i joint

For Flexible ‘I’ Joints, the flat edge dimension is the same as the standard ‘I’ Joint but less critical.

Q. Will the joint tape migrate (leak) through to the liner on the laminated glass?

A. No evidence of this has been reported on our test pieces.

Q. Will the joints take up potential glass bow?

A. Yes, to a degree. The gel type tape used has compressive qualities, which helps with tolerance. However, it is essential to use a glass supplier that processes on well-maintained machinery to minimise the possibility of excessive glass bow.

Q. Can the joints be fitted in cold conditions?

A. Yes, however fitting joints in conditions below room temperature will affect the bond. It is recommended that, where possible, both the joints and glass are equalised to room temperature 24 hours prior to fitting. The recommended application temperature is 18°C – 35°C.

Q. Does the tape lose its strength over time?

A. No, the opposite is true for these joints. The tape has excellent contact bond and reaches its maximum bond strength in 12 hours after fitting.

Q. Are there any special fitting requirements?

A. The following guidance should be taken into consideration when fitting G2G:
• To ensure the best bond between the G2G profile and the glass, a recommended application temperature between 18°C – 35°C is advisable.
• It is recommended that, where possible, the joints and glass are equalised to room temperature 24 hours prior to fitting.
• A quality polished edge works best for maximum bond strength. When fitting the joints on site it is important that these polished edges are clean, dust and grease free, an alcohol wipe is recommended.
• It is essential that every panel is shimmed and plumbed (particularly the first panel) vertically/horizontally and centralised in the base and head channels.
• It is recommended that prior to fitting the joints, every subsequent glass panel is aligned side by side with the fitted panel to check for bow and swapped for a flush panel if there are any showing this effect.
• It is recommended that ratchet strap/suckers are used when fitting panels to achieve the best contact pressure.
• The tape used has excellent initial tack and contact bond in most conditions and reaches its maximum bond strength in
12 hours after fitting.
• The gel type tape used has compressive qualities which help with tolerance, however it is essential the glass has been cut on well-maintained machinery to minimise this potential affect.
Please note these are for guidance only. Reddiplex accept no responsibility for the overall installation of a partitioning system.

Q. Can I fit manifestation graphics over the joints?

A. Yes. The joints have been designed to give enhanced sight lines across the glass panels, in turn reducing the interference with any graphics that may run over the joints.

Q. Are there any specific storage requirements for the G2G profiles?

A. No. The G2G system should generally be stored at room temperature and normal humidity (50-70%) but it can withstand a temperature range of between -40°C to +150°C. However, during installation, it is recommended that both the glass and the
G2G profile are brought to within a temperature range of 18°C – 35°C.

Q. What colour are the joints?

A. Clear. The joints are designed to be as clear as possible to ensure the maximum light transmission and limited impact on the overall appearance of the system.

Q. Are the joints fire rated?

A. No. The joints have not been designed for use in fire rated systems.

Q. Are the joints UV stable?

A. The joints have been primarily designed for internal use. We are currently age testing to demonstrate the UV stability of the joints in external applications.

Q. Are the joints impact tested?

A. No, although we are confident that the joints will work under these conditions, it is impossible to test this in every system on the market.

Q. Are the joints acoustic tested?

A. No, although we are confident that the joints will perform well under these conditions, it is impossible to test this in every system on the market.
