How Slim are UltraSlim Door Frames?

When considering door frame widths, remember that when two doors are together, the width is approximately double. For example, a standard frame that is one and a half inches wider than a slim frame will obscure an additional three inches of your potential view through the centre of a pair of doors.

Our client wanted to see more of the lovely view from inside the home (below).

This is a good example, where we have captured the image of the old door and placed it next to the new doors to illustrate the difference in frame widths:

UltraSlim Frames can be seen as pairs that are jointly slimmer than a single frame on the old door.
Some typical sizes of door frames are:

• SunSeeker UltraSlim 19mm / 38mm pair
• SunSeeker Slimline 60mm / 120mm pair
• Aluminium frames, typically 72mm / 144mm pair
• Typical upvc frame, up to 80mm / 220*mm
  *sometimes, there is an additional post to encase the locking mechanism

The difference between 220mm and 38mm is approximately SEVEN inches!
