The slim steel frames are the perfect solution for modern door openings, with unique glazing bar designs available to create an architectural feature.
The minimal steel sightlines maintain a modern industrial design whist the thermal break and highly insulated glass ensure the doors achieve high levels of performance.
The steel profiles can create a wide range of steel door openings including single doors, double doors, large patio door arrangements, pivot doors and bifolding doors.
The steel bifold door offers an ultra-slim sightline, allowing the glass to be the primary feature.
You can easily integrate these steel-framed opening doors within a larger steel-framed facade or pair them with side glazing and opening windows. The connection profiles between windows and doors are still extremely slim, achieving a coherent finish.

Steel door possibilities include large steel-framed facades, slim framed fixed steel doors, pivoting steel doors, and bifold steel doors all of which are thermally broken flexible steel door systems.
Glazing bars within the opening can be true glazing dividers or applied glazing bars in your choice of configuration, with a range of design options.
Depending on the design and specification, slim steel doors may benefit from applied frames to lessen the weight on the hinges, as well as improve the overall UW value with enhanced thermal efficiency.

As well as including a full thermal break and having super slim sightlines, our steel glazing systems offer unprecedented levels of performance and durability.
The slim steel frames can be used to create a wide variety of openings including typical hinged doors, fixed glazing, steel bifold doors and pivoting openings. The steel profiles are designed for both private residential use and public-use buildings, thanks to the adaptable designs.
The beauty of steel is the ability to work outside the 'box. Various configurations have been tested and detailed. However, the project team at IQ Glass are able to help develop new and unique applications of the system to suit your project requirements. This includes larger sizes, specific opening types, and particular performance targets.

There is a wide variety of slim steel glazing door systems on display at the newly renovated IQ Glass showroom, with the latest additions including a patinated brass lift and sliding glass door.
Utilising modern thermal break technology, these slim steel framed glazing door systems achieve unparalleled thermal performance levels without compromise on design, and are manufactured completely bespoke for each project.

Performance
The steel profiles are fully thermally broken to ensure steel framed glass doors are suitable for year-round use. This allows us to achieve high levels of thermal insulation when paired with insulating glass units.
Steel framed glass doors are suitable for international projects too, as the thermal break allows colder climates to utilise the modern industrial designs to prevent heat loss through the glazing.
Specific performance requirements can be met with bespoke engineering solutions, simply let us know what your specific performance requirements are, and we can provide the solution.
Bespoke Finishing Options
All profiles are finished to your specified colour/finish. The same finish can be chosen for window, door and fixed glass systems for a seamless finish.
There is a range of finishes available including standard PPC in any RAL colour.
