All-glass entrance doors are frameless tempered glass entries with continuous hinges, top and bottom rails (or fully frameless), and architectural hardware. Used on upscale retail, restaurants, hospitality lobbies, office buildings, and any commercial building where the design intent calls for a transparent, brand-quality entry.
Tempered safety glass (typically 1/2" thick or 3/4" thick) with mechanical hardware bolted through the glass. Continuous hinge (running full door height) or pivot hinges at top and bottom. Optional top and bottom rails for additional structural support. Architectural pulls, panic hardware, locks, and closers.
HVHZ-rated all-glass entrances are rare but available — specific manufacturers (Dorma Kaba, CRL) offer Miami-Dade NOA assemblies for impact-rated frameless entries. For non-HVHZ Florida (inland), standard tempered all-glass entries are acceptable.
Continuous hinges (Pemko, Markar, Bommer) for heavy-traffic commercial. Pivot sets (Dorma, CRL) for architectural-feature entries. Panic hardware (Adams Rite, Von Duprin) for code-required egress. Architectural pulls (custom-sized or stock from CRL, Trimco).
Upscale retail flagships, restaurant entries, hotel lobby entries, Class-A office lobby entries, healthcare main entries, museum and gallery entries.
Single all-glass entrance door (frameless, with continuous hinge and panic hardware): $6,200-$14,500 installed. Pair of all-glass entrance doors (vestibule, double-door egress): $11,800-$28,000 installed.
All-glass entrances need annual hardware re-tightening (continuous hinge fasteners, pull anchors, threshold bolts). High-traffic entries (grocery, hospital) may need quarterly maintenance. Glass replacement on damage is straightforward but expensive due to custom sizes.
