Adjusting hinged glass doors correctly: a practical guide

Glass doors should open and close perfectly to make the most of their advantages. You can find out how to adjust and maintain your Glass doors correctly here.

Glass doors give rooms a modern and airy atmosphere. To ensure that Glass doors work properly, it is important to set them up correctly. Here are some steps and tips that can help:

First, make sure that the hinges are firmly attached to the Door and frame. If screws are loose, they must be tightened.

Now it's the turn of the seals round the Glass doors: they should be checked for cracks and replaced if damaged in order to close optimally.

The Door can now be aligned vertically and horizontally using the adjusting screws on the hinges. Carefully adjust the screws and keep checking that the Doors closes and opens smoothly.

The threshold should rest evenly on the Floor and be fixed without any unevenness. If necessary, it should be adjusted so that the Glass doors can close properly.

Doors and frames should be cleaned regularly with mild cleaning agents and soft cloths to prevent dirt from accumulating and preventing the Glass doors from opening and closing smoothly.

Extreme temperature fluctuations can lead to expansion or contraction of the Glass. In bathrooms, you should keep an eye on the humidity to minimize condensation. Both lead to undesirable changes and require readjustment.

If unexpected difficulties arise during adjustment, it is worth calling a professional tradesman to identify the problems and take appropriate action.
