Patch fitting is a kind of hardware fitting fixed on the edge of glass door to install other parts. At present, there are many kinds of patch fittings sold in the market, such as curved, straight, and top patch fittings. The materials are also different, but generally speaking, they are mainly stainless steel.
In the patch fitting, the hardware is made of forged brass and stainless-steel cover plate. They are the best concept available so far, providing many design functions for architectural and interior designers. If the wrong patch fittings are selected, the glass may crack or break. The top and bottom patch fittings are connected with two glass top and bottom angles. They are assembled on the glass by drilling two small holes with a diameter equal to the thickness of the glass.
First of all, be careful not to adjust a whole glass door alone because the glass door is very heavy and maybe hurt you.
If the glass door is biased and not perpendicular to the ground, it is mostly caused by the damage of the internal structure of the patch fitting or the offset of the position of the patch fitting attached to the wall and glass. You can first screw all the screws of the patch fitting. If it is found to be loose, correct the position of the patch fitting, and then tighten the screws. If all screws are not loose, the internal spring structure of the patch fitting is damaged that needs to be replaced.
The glass door is inclined and perpendicular to the ground. This situation is mostly caused by the aging of the gasket between the patch fitting and the glass or the offset of the position of the patch fitting attached to the wall and glass. If it is judged that the gasket is aging, replace the gasket.
