The Difference between Single and Double Glazed Frameless Patio Doors

All our frameless glass doors are, well, frameless. But the double-glazed frameless glass doors are comprised of two panes of glass that are hermetically sealed all round to create a vacuum between the inside and outside panes, giving the doors their high insulation properties.

So, to look at the double glazed frameless glass doors, you see something solid at the sides that you might think is a very narrow frame (about 19mm or ¾") whereas there is nothing at all to see at the sides of the tempered single glazed frameless glass doors.

We admit that the totally frameless-sides glass doors offer the better view but they don't comply with building regulations for use between your home and the outside. They can be used as super cool contemporary room dividers in the home or on a conservatory, on a summer house or pool house. Doors for commercial premises do not need to comply with household regulations.
