ABSTRACT:
A molded door and mating door jamb for a observation tower enclosure includes a projection to adapt to a non-vertical structure on one side. The door projection is provided to avoid a projecting wall structure experienced by present day door jamb structures in enclosures having glare reducing slanted windows. A generally planar door is hinged to a vertical door jamb on the opposing side, but has a triangular projection on the non-vertical, slanted window side to adapt to the slanted door jamb construction. The door is hinged to open outward and away from the observer's forward area of interest. The molded door avoids a door jamb and adaptor sections which may obstruct the guard's view as he or she opens the door and exits. The molded door can also provide additional structural support for shutters and roof structure when closed. The door can also include seals, locks and windows for added security, protection and visibility.
