Double Action Door Fittings for Frameless Glass Systems

G-Fittings supplies specialized trade professionals, interior fitters, and the hospitality sector with professional hardware solutions for glass double action doors (often referred to as swing doors). Double action doors are the ideal solution for highly frequented passages (e.g., between the kitchen and dining area or in office corridors), as they open in both directions and automatically return to the zero position. A major architectural advantage: Our systems can be installed as frameless glass double action doors directly to the wall or in a glass-to-glass assembly. If you are looking for a high-quality stainless steel double action door hinge, our range offers mechanical and hydraulic variants for maximum durability in high-frequency environments.

Highest Functionality: Double Action Door Hinges with & without Hold-Open Feature

For maximum flexibility in commercial projects, we offer double action door fittings in various designs. Models with a hold-open feature (e.g., at 90° or 105°) allow passages to be kept open permanently during peak hours. Fittings without a hold-open feature close immediately and reliably after passing through, which is particularly crucial for draft and climate zone separation.

Hydraulic vs. Mechanical Double Action Door Fittings

Depending on the requirements profile and door weight (up to 100 kg for heavy-duty fittings), you can choose between mechanical and hydraulic systems:

  • Mechanical double action door hinge for glass doors: Extremely robust and low-maintenance. Ideal for lighter frameless glass doors and standard passages.
  • Hydraulic double action door hinge (glass): Features integrated closing dampers. They prevent the door from slamming uncontrollably, minimize the risk of injury, and protect the glass by gently braking before reaching the zero position. The closing speed is infinitely adjustable.

Installation & Glass Processing for Professionals

Our hardware systems are designed to ensure fast installation on site. We carry systems that require specific glass cut-outs (for maximum positive fit with heavy doors) as well as clamping variants. Matching bottom pivots, top pivots, and transom connectors can also be found directly in our assortment.

Frequently Asked Questions about Glass Double Action Doors (FAQ)

For which glass thicknesses are the double action door fittings suitable?

Our systems are designed as standard for tempered safety glass (TSG) in thicknesses of 8 mm, 10 mm, and 12 mm. Interlayers for exact adjustment are included in the scope of delivery.

Can the double action door hinges be adjusted in the zero position?

Yes, with most of our double action door hinges, the zero position can be infinitely adjusted after installation (usually +/- 3° to 5°). This guarantees flush closing, even if the walls are not exactly plumb.

Do you also offer fully hydraulic double action door hinges without a floor box?

Yes, we carry so-called "floor-independent" hydraulic hinges. The complete technology is housed compactly in the lower door fitting, meaning that no complex recesses need to be milled into the screed (floor box). Ideal for retrofitting and underfloor heating.
