Why choose a steel glazed door?

The growing popularity of steel glazed doors is no surprise, given the ideal combination of aesthetic and functional advantages that they can offer. In this blog, we’ll take a look at the main reasons why designers love to specify them: exploring all the primary benefits, as well as the scope for bespoke design.  

Aesthetics

The glass panes of the steel door system create enable improved aesthetics by allowing natural light to flow through, giving the illusion of a larger and more open space. At the same time, they maintain the essential function of a door by providing security and privacy within the designated area. The transparent quality of the glass panels adds a touch of elegance and modernity to any space, making steel glazed doors a popular choice for both residential and commercial settings.

Fire rating 

In addition to meeting regulatory requirements, the certified fire-rated steel door systems come in a variety of glass colors and frame finishes, allowing for seamless integration into any design scheme. This means that you can maintain the aesthetic appeal of your space without sacrificing safety or functionality. Whether you prefer a sleek, modern look or a more traditional style, there is a fire-rated steel door system to suit your preferences and requirements.

Acoustic properties 

Minimalist steel door systems are available with discreet seals to achieve a 36dB acoustic rating, without making any concessions to the design. This offers the acoustic efficiency of a traditional timber door whilst enabling the creation of a visually stunning space. 

Functionality 

Steel doors are available with a range of different opening mechanisms, from hinged, pivoting, or sliding doors, to fixed screens. 

As a bespoke product, the steel door can be tailored to the requirements of each project: from ultra contemporary designs, through to a more traditional style. Whether you prefer the classic swing of a hinged door, the sleek functionality of a pivoting system, or the space-saving convenience of a sliding door, there is a steel door solution to meet your needs.
