CRL NFH4MBLD Matte Black Double Narrow Floating Header with Surface-Mounted Pivots, 72"C.R. Laurence NFH4MBLD Matte Black Double Narrow Floating Header with Surface Mounted Top Pivots is designed specifically for 72" wide openings, accommodating 1/2" (12 mm) thick monolithic tempered glass. This elegant header is supported by glass side panels, ensuring structural integrity while creating a seamless sight line when paired with CRL door rails. Available in stock sizes of 36" and 72", custom lengths and configurations can also be tailored to meet unique project requirements. The NFH4MBLD model features six standard architectural finishes, with custom finishes available upon special order, allowing for design flexibility in various settings. It is compatible with CRL PH20 and PH21 Series Top Door Patch Hardware Fittings and works effectively in glass-to-glass configurations, making it an ideal choice for free-swinging bottom pivots or floor closers. For application versatility, this header provides both aesthetic appeal and functionality, particularly when aiming to maximize glass visibility while maintaining security with a magnetic shear lock. Compliance with local regulations and proper installation techniques are essential, as the header’s structural integrity can be compromised if not supported adequately, especially when transom weights exceed 100 pounds (45.4 kg). For expert guidance, CRL Technical Sales is available to assist.
