What's important to know when ordering secret doors?
The most important thing is that the invisible frame is installed at the stage of construction works! That is, door installation is carried out in two stages: first, the aluminum frame is mounted on the walls without finishing, and after finishing the walls, the door leaf is installed.

The dimensions of the door openings must correspond to the standard dimensions of the doors, so you do not have to pay too much for non-standard dimensions. Standard doorway dimensions: width 710, 810, 910 mm, height 2160 mm. The maximum height of the opening is 3060 mm.
It is necessary to decide on the materials in advance: flooring and wall finishes, as this information is taken into account by the master when installing the frame.
The frame is adjusted to the height of the finished floor, so the door installer needs to know the thickness of the floor covering. For the door leaf to be flush with the wall, the door installer must set the frame with an offset equal to the thickness of the wall finish.
It is also important decide on the opening side (right/left) and the opening method (from/to yourself) at the beginning. This information is required for ordering at the factory and cannot be changed during installation.
The hinge holes in the secret frame are made at the factory on the right or left side, i.e. the frame is not reversible, you cannot select the opening side during installation, you must do this in advance. Take into account that the door leaf will be flush with the wall only on one side. A normal door leaf opens towards itself on this side. If you want the leaf to be flush with the wall and open away from you, we order an Inverso leaf from the factory, which is 1.5 cm thicker than the normal leaf. In this case, the door will open on maximum of 90°.
