Crittall Sliding Doors

Where Internal Steel Sliding Doors Work Best

Crittall internal sliding doors work particularly well in open-plan kitchens, living rooms, dining areas, home offices and commercial interiors where spaces need to feel connected but still be easy to divide.

Because the doors slide sideways rather than opening into the room, they are a practical choice where floor space is limited. Large glazed panels allow natural light to move between adjoining areas, even when the doors are closed.

They can also be designed to complement existing Crittall windows, internal screens and other steel-framed features, helping create a consistent look throughout the property.

With slim steel profiles and a choice of colours, glazing and hardware, Crittall sliding doors suit both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Crittall Sliding Door Options

Crittall internal sliding doors are made to suit each project and are available in pocket, rebate and face-mounted configurations. This allows the door system to be designed around the available wall space, opening and intended use of the room.

Slim steel profiles support large glazed panels, helping natural light move between adjoining spaces even when the doors are closed. Different glazing options can be selected depending on the level of light, privacy and appearance required.

The doors are available in a wide choice of RAL and BS colours, including black, grey, white and bespoke shades. Matt, satin and gloss finishes can be used to complement both traditional and contemporary interiors.

A choice of purpose-made sliding door pull handles is also available, including classic, contemporary and Art Deco-inspired designs. The steel frames are hot-dip galvanised and finished with a durable powder coating to provide a long-lasting, low-maintenance finish.

Sliding Doors or Hinged Internal Doors?

Crittall sliding doors and hinged internal doors both allow rooms to be divided without blocking natural light, but they work in different ways.

Sliding doors move sideways rather than opening into the room. This means they do not need a clear area for the door to swing, making them particularly useful for kitchens, living rooms, home offices and other spaces where floor space is important.

Pocket sliding doors can disappear into the wall when opened, while face-mounted and rebate systems remain visible as part of the interior design. Sliding systems are also useful for creating flexible open-plan spaces that can be opened or divided when needed.

Hinged internal doors may be better suited to smaller openings, traditional room layouts or areas where a standard opening and closing action is preferred. They can still provide the same slim steel profiles, glazed panels and choice of colours and hardware.

The best option will depend on the available space, wall construction, required opening width and how the room will be used. Metwin can discuss the available configurations and recommend the most suitable Crittall internal door system for the project.
