What type of location is glazing in storm doors considered?

Glazing in storm doors is considered hazardous due to the potential for breakage and the risk of injury from sharp edges or shattered glass. This is particularly important in areas where the glass is exposed to impact from the outside or where children may be present. The characteristics of the location — often being close to pathways, entrances, or other areas of transit — compound the risks associated with the use of glass materials in these contexts.

In contrast, safe, acceptable, or non-hazardous classifications would imply that the glazing poses little to no risk, which is not the case with typical storm door installations featuring standard glass. Safety regulations and building codes often require specific types of glazing, such as tempered or laminated glass, for areas considered hazardous to mitigate these risks. Thus, the designation of hazardous accurately reflects the need for precautions and specific materials to enhance safety in environments where storm doors are installed.
