Doors for Glass Partitions

If you’re going ahead with your glass partitioning installation, chances are you’re going to need a door. At Glass Partitioning UK, we offer a wide selection of glass doors and solid doors – whatever you need to complement your system and business requirements.

What is a Glass Partition Door?

A glass partition door is a stylish way to separate spaces without shutting them off completely. It’s the go-to choice for modern offices, co-working spaces and even homes where light, openness and flexibility matter. Fitting perfectly into your glass partitioning system, they offer the best of both worlds – an open, airy feel with just the right amount of separation. No more boxed-in, dimly lit spaces. Just clean lines, plenty of light and a touch of sophistication.
Built from toughened or laminated glass, they’re designed to handle daily usage. Need privacy? Options like frosted or switchable glass mean you can choose how much people see – or don’t see.

The Important Details

The specifications of your glass door will vary depending on the system you choose. With that said, here are a few things to consider:

• When it comes to acoustics, doors are typically a weak point within your glass partitioning system. Think about it – as soon as they’re opened, there becomes a space for sound to escape into neighbouring rooms. Whilst we can’t promise a complete soundproof solution, we do recommend adding drop seals and a framework to your glass door to reduce sound transmission.
• We’re more than happy to apply a range of glass manifestations to your doors. This is a perfect way to incorporate company branding into your office design or improve privacy with a frosted design.
• You can choose from a variety of door options -regardless of your glass partitions! From solid to glass, even the ironmongery, we only supply options that are compatible with our systems.

Door Ironmongery

The finishing touches can make all the difference. To complete your glass door installation, we’ll add a range of handles, locks and signage (manifestations) to fulfil your project needs. These can be added on as required to all door types.

Types of Glass Doors

No matter what system you select, all our glass doors promise an elegancy that will help you achieve a modern office design, whilst also maximising light flow. Here are a few of our popular options to choose from.

Frameless Glass Doors

Our frameless glass doors are made using a single glazed sheet of glass. During the installation stage, our experienced fitters ensure this sits flush within the glass partitioning for a seamless finish. Though single glazed glass is one of the thinnest options we offer, you can rest assured it still offers great strength and won’t flex or distort.

Framed Glass Doors

Once installed, our framed glass doors are almost identical to their frameless alternatives – the only difference is that they’re housed in a neat, aluminium frame! Adding this framework will improve the overall acoustic performance and create an alternative style that’s incredibly popular within modern and industrial interior designs. For this reason, we often recommend that you pair your framed glass door with banded glass partitions.

Sliding Glass Doors

Sliding glass doors are ideal if you’re looking for a space-saving solution or a simple alternative to a standard hinged door. During your installation, we can either fit these as top hung or (if the ceiling isn’t strong enough), hung from the ¾ position. The ¾ mechanism instead places the weight of the door on the glass panels, as well as the floor.

Movable Glass Doors

Unlike sliding glass doors, movable glass doors can be folded or stacked to create an open plan environment (or unfolded to divide rooms). They’re a cost-effective solution for hybrid workplaces that need a flexible door solution to easily transition with different work styles.

Fire Rated Glass Doors

On occasion, your glass door will need to correspond with requisite fire ratings. This may also apply to fire rated glass partitioning. We supply fire rated glass doors that correspond to a full range of legal requirements, covering both fire integrity and fire installation. Please contact our experts or read our blog for more information on this.

Timber Doors

Yes, you read that right. We offer timber doors that are just as compatible with our glass partitioning systems as our glass ones! In fact, we think the contrast of natural materials with modern glass is an interesting design feature that can set your workplace apart. Practically, our timber doors can also improve elements of privacy, all while maintaining the acoustic performance of the surrounding partitions.
