Product description
External and internal timber doors, typically used for residential premises, with glass inserts.
What are the defects?
Certain glass doors installed from approximately October 2019 to February 2022 may not be toughened correctly and may not shatter according to the requirements of the Australian toughened glass safety standards.
What are the hazards?
If the glass door has not been toughened correctly and the glass breaks, it may break into fragments or shards and pose a risk of serious injury.
What should consumers do?
Some consumers will receive a letter between December 2022 and January 2023 from Corinthian Doors, their retailer or installer arranging for repair of their affected doors. Consumers who have not received a letter but have a clear glass door with timber trim (see example photos above) should visit the below Corinthian Doors recall webpage and follow the instructions to identify if your doors are affected.
All affected doors will be repaired at no cost. A clear film will be applied which prevents the glass from breaking unsafely into fragments or shards.
