Full Glass Entry Door

When designing a modern entrance that maximizes natural light and architectural appeal, a full glass entry door stands unmatched. Our door systems harness the superior impact resistance and thermal stability of a Tempered Glass Door to ensure everyday safety without sacrificing aesthetic purity. For a lightweight yet rigid structure, we pair the glazing with a precision-engineered Aluminum Frame Glass Door profile—available in thermally broken versions—that resists corrosion and maintains slender sightlines. In coastal or high-traffic installations where extra durability is paramount, a Stainless Steel Frame Glass Door configuration offers the same seamless transparency with the added benefit of robust 304-grade stainless steel that withstands salt spray and heavy use. Every panel is fabricated as a Safety Tempered Glass Door compliant with ANSI Z97.1 and EN 12150 standards, featuring polished edges, heat-soak testing options, and laminated interlayer possibilities for overhead glazing requirements. The complete assembly undergoes 50,000-cycle endurance testing on hinges and locking points, guaranteeing smooth operation for decades. From minimal aluminum frames with hairline joints to fully frameless pivot designs, the system can accommodate clear, low-iron, satin etched, or digitally printed glass finishes while maintaining consistent U-factors down to 1.6 W/m²K when dual-glazed. Multi-point locks with shoot bolts, concealed closers, and continuous floor hinges are integrated flush into the slab, preserving the clean planar aesthetic that architects demand. Every component—from EPDM gaskets to stainless steel fasteners—is selected for compatibility, enabling the versatile full glass entry to adapt to contemporary residential facades, boutique storefronts, and high-end office lobbies.

The Full Glass Entry Door is engineered as a complete single-source package, delivered with pre-fabricated frames, glazed panel, hardware, and sealing profiles ready for installation. To provide absolute clarity on specifications, below is the standard technical breakdown.

• Glass type: fully tempered safety glass, thickness 10 mm / 12 mm, with optional 0.76 mm PVB laminated interlayer
• Glass finishing: clear float, extra-clear low-iron, acid-etched, sandblasted, back-painted RAL colors, or digital ceramic frit
• Frame materials: 6063-T5 aluminum alloy (anodized or powder-coated) or 304 stainless steel (brushed, mirror-polished, or PVD coated)
• Door slab thickness: 45 mm (aluminum frame) / 55 mm (stainless steel frame)
• Maximum panel dimensions: 1200 mm × 2800 mm (single leaf); custom larger sizes available with structural reinforcement
• Hardware: solid stainless steel pull handles (D-handle, tubular, or custom), adjustable butt hinges or floor springs, concealed multi-point lock with Euro-profile cylinder
• Weather seals: double-fin EPDM gaskets on all four sides; magnetic drop seal at bottom on request
• Thermal performance: U-value from 1.6 W/m²K (double glazing with argon fill and warm-edge spacer)
• Acoustic rating: Rw up to 38 dB with laminated glass configuration
• Wind load resistance: Class C5 (up to 2000 Pa) per EN 12210
• Air permeability: Class 4 per EN 12207
• Water tightness: Class E1200 (up to 1200 Pa) per EN 12208
• Cycle testing: certified 500,000 cycles on top pivot and floor closer assemblies

Below are the two most commonly specified Full Glass Entry Door configurations with their nominal values.

These assemblies are designed to integrate with sidelights and transoms in the same profile system, maintaining uniform 20 mm glazing channels and continuous thermal barriers. The Full Glass Entry Door can be supplied with pivot, butt-hinge, or offset hinge opening options, and all models include adjustable three-axis alignment blocks to compensate for site tolerances of up to ±5 mm. Drainage paths are engineered directly into the bottom rail with concealed weep slots, ensuring no standing water inside the frame. Stainless steel bearing plates at all load transfer points prevent glass stress concentrations, while factory-applied protective edge coatings minimize handling damage. For projects requiring verified performance, we provide complete static calculation packages, thermal simulation reports, and in-person installation training upon request.
