About glass entrance doors in County Fermanagh

Fixed glass screens are held in slim channels or clamps at the floor, walls and ceiling, and the head fixing needs something solid to bite into. Walls and ceilings are rarely perfectly square, so templating records the true shape and the glass is made to follow it, keeping gaps even.

Toughened glass cannot be cut, drilled or notched once it has been toughened. Holes for patch fittings, cut-outs for locks and handles, and any shaped corners are all made before toughening, which is why we template the opening first and the glass is made to order rather than cut on site.

A frameless door hangs on one of three main hardware types. Patch fittings clamp to the corners and pivot on a floor spring or top pivot, glass-to-wall hinges suit lighter internal doors, and sliding gear runs the panel along a track fixed above the opening.

A floor spring sits in a steel box set into the floor below the door, controlling closing speed and hold-open. It needs a recess cut into the screed, so it is far simpler to plan before tiles, stone or timber flooring are laid than to retrofit later.

What applies in County Fermanagh

Technical Booklet V covers safety glazing in Northern Ireland, including glass in and around doors and low-level glazing where people could walk into it.

For shops and other non-domestic buildings in Northern Ireland, Technical Booklet R covers access, and large glazed areas should be clearly marked.

County Fermanagh is inland, around 37 km from the nearest coast at its closest point, so salt exposure is rarely a factor.

Older cottages and farmhouses rarely have square openings or level floors, so templating matters even more for frameless glass. Floors may also lack the depth for a floor spring, in which case top-hung sliding gear or wall hinges can suit better.

Choosing your frameless glass

Hardware finishes

Patch fittings, handles and hinges in satin or polished stainless steel, black or other finishes to match the room or shopfront.

Low-iron glass

Glass with less iron, removing the green tint seen on the edges of standard glass, so thick panels look clearer and colours stay true.

Glass-to-wall hinged door

Hinges clamp the glass directly to a wall or fixed glass panel. Suits lighter internal doors where there is no room for a floor spring.

Fixed glass screen

A non-opening panel held in slim channels or clamps, used to divide rooms, line stairs or form a side panel beside a glass door.

Frameless Glass in County Fermanagh: questions

How long does it take to get a frameless glass door fitted?

Once the opening is templated, the glass is made to order and toughened, which usually takes a few weeks. Fitting a single door or screen is normally done in a day, while larger entrances or runs of screens take longer. Your written quote sets out the expected programme, and we confirm the date when the glass is ready.

How do I look after a frameless glass door?

Clean the glass with a soft cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner, and wipe metal fittings with a damp cloth rather than harsh chemicals. Do not hang anything from the door or let it slam against a stop. If the door starts closing too hard or drops out of line, the floor spring or pivots can be adjusted before wear sets in.

Can a frameless glass door be locked?

Yes. A patch lock at the bottom of the door shoots a bolt into a keep in the floor, and a centre lock can join a pair of doors. A glass door does not offer the same resistance as a solid door, so for external entrances you may also want shutters, an alarm or laminated security glass in adjoining screens.

Can a frameless glass door be fitted into my existing doorway?

Usually, yes. We survey the opening to check the head and walls can take the fixings, and template it so the glass follows any out-of-square edges. A floor spring needs a recess in the floor, so where that is not practical we may suggest a top pivot, wall hinges or sliding gear instead. Some making good of plaster may be needed.
