Comments:

When considering any entry to be installed in an air structure application.
One should consider the surface force seen by a door is approximately five
pounds per square foot of surface area when the structure pressure
reaches 1″ wc. In our opinion, this level of loading and the inherit life safety considerations make conventional doors an inappropriate choice.

Unit is designed to for use in structures operating at pressures up to 2” wc.

Unit is NOT to be used a part of the structure anchorage.

Note:

We do NOT recommend this unit be used as a primary egress – access point.
