&lt;p&gt;If you are running a PartL calc then you can change the frame factor by editing the&amp;nbsp;individual surfaces on the Misc tab as below. Please find further &lt;a href="/products/building/building_analysis___design/w/building_analysis_and_design__wiki/48429/window-shading-and-blinds-in-partl"&gt;info here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/640x240/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/343683/pastedimage1613666856048v2.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For PartL calculations you are correct that a glazed door is recognised as a window if the glazed percentage is over 50%, and recognised as a normal door if less than 50%.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, should your door contain over 50% glazing the current workflow for PartL is to instead add this surface into your building model as a normal window.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
