Insulated glass inserts are covered for 1 year from date of receipt. By law, all glass
installed in doors must be tempered. The tempered label etched into the lower corner of
a glass insert is not a defect, it is legally required. Tempered glass is more prone to

if they are not visible from 5 feet away, they are not considered defects
