With the movable panel lifted upward to its full limit within the confines of the door panel, a concentrated load of 50 pounds shall be applied to the vertical stile incorporating a locking device, at a point on the stile within 6 inches of the locking device, in the direction parallel to the plane of glass that would tend to open the door while, simultaneously, and additional concentrated load of 200 pounds is applied to the same area of the same stile in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the glass toward the exterior side of the door. with the load applied, determine if the primary locking device can be unlocked by manipulation as described in Test 1, infra. Repeat Test i substituting 800 pounds for the indicated 50 pounds. Perform the manipulation tests with the load removed. For inside sliding doors, repeat Test d while simultaneously applying a concen- trated load of 50 pounds at the end of the movable bottom rail near the meeting stiles inward. For outside sliding doors, repeat Test d while simultaneously apply- ing a concentrated load of 50 pounds at the end of the movable bottom rail near the meeting stiles and outward.
