The hockey stick profile can be fixed using panel pins or a suitable timber adhesive, depending on the glazing system and door manufacturer's guidance. If painting or staining, apply a primer or base coat to all faces, including the back, before fitting to help stabilise moisture movement and achieve a consistent finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a hockey stick glazing bead used for on a fire door?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hockey stick glazing bead is shaped with a stepped, rebated profile that sits neatly against both the glass panel and the door leaf, holding the glass securely in place while covering the joint.
