CRL Narrow Floating Headers with Walking Beam Top Pivots are engineered for 1/2" (12 mm) heavy glass door rails and work with CRL PH20 and PH21 Series top door patch hardware fittings. When paired with CRL door rails the narrow header matches the rail width for an even sight line—an ideal solution when you want maximum glass visibility with a coordinated header-to-rail appearance. These narrow floating headers are fabricated for 1/2" (12 mm) glass-to-glass configurations and are compatible with free-swinging bottom pivots or floor closers. Custom lengths, glass-to-wall configurations, and floating headers for offset pivots are available.
Compatible hardware: CRL PH20/PH21 top door patch fittings and CRL9040WBP walking beam top pivots.
Application Tip: Use the CRL Narrow Floating Header to maximize glass area while retaining the security of a magnetic shear lock.
