Glass Office Doors: Hinged, Sliding and Framed Options
A guide to glass office door types — frameless hinged, framed hinged, sliding and pivot — and how to choose hardware, seals and locks.
Door types
The most common options are:
- Frameless hinged — minimal, suits frameless partitions.
- Framed hinged — robust, better seals, suits black-framed systems.
- Sliding — saves space where swing clearance is limited.
- Pivot — larger feature doors for receptions and boardrooms.
Hardware matters
Hinges, closers and handles affect how a door feels every day. Choose hardware rated for the door weight and expected use, and consider accessibility requirements for handle heights and opening forces.
