tip

Follow these steps if you need transom glass to span over the door panel and an adjacent sidelite.

  1. Add the entrance with transom.
  2. Add a horizontal at the transom height to both the door panel and the sidelite panel.
  3. Add a merge condition with both pieces glass.

This will replace the horizontal part on the sidelite with extended transom parts.

Once it's set up, double check that you have a Cripple Header Stop set up for the sidelight glass beneath the extended transom. See Configuring Entrances.
