There are no different answers . Anything lower than 18” from any grade or floor needs to be SAFETY glass . The sliding door is only MADE with SAFETY glass and can go to the floor height . The same will apply to a window with SAFETY glass that can be installed to the floor so where is the difference ?
STOP! There’s your answer. All the rest of your gobbledygook just confuses the issue. Let it go!

Yes but you are the one that started and I don’t see what is so confusing
I guess you don’t have any construction background because that would be the only reason you are confused . Have a good day .
You must be related to the Canadian WAFI. I am done with you!

I don’t see why you are getting so hot . Nobody knows everything and on this topic you are the one . You should ask a town building inspector to get a little more educated on the topic . Have a good day .
Look very carefully in the corners, maybe in the right light, for the certification stamp.

Get around safety glazing with a recommendation narrative because finding safety glass in windows with low windows sills is few and far between and scarcer than hens teeth. 'Block in front the window with furniture a minimum 25" high. Install a inside safety guard rail minimum 25", etc.
I report within the rules.
As for what the certification stamp looks like, look at a sliding glass door bottom right or left hand side corner mostly but can be in any corner.
LOL… 18" LOL…
The 2018 IRC continues to require the bottom of openings created by operable windows to be a minimum height of 24 inches above the adjacent interior floor when they are more than 6 feet above the grade outside the window.
Franco, don’t mind Jeffery. He was dropped on his head by falling out a window where the window sill was 18" and opened more the 4" as a child and that number stuck with him. Lol.
Ignore him.

Hi Robert , I kind of understood that but what I am worried about more than anything else is that this guy is so closed minded is scary .
Thanks for the the text .

Unfortunately, that is Jeffery’s attitude. Franco, get beyond emotions and think purely informational both on the message board and at work.
Did you look-up EERO rules for Emergency Escape and Rescue Openings? Good arrow to keep in your quiver.
Hi , I still don’t understand what he was fighting about and not sure what was that he did’t understand . I am not the best teacher in the world but it looked pretty much self explanatory or it could be that he never really read the entire message . No I really didn’t look EERO for emergency escape rules but I will .
Thanks .
Franco
