Made-to-Measure Internal Steel Double Doors, Designed around your home

This recent project in Chorlton-cum-Hardy showcases how bespoke steel doors can completely transform a modern home while maintaining openness, light, and functionality throughout the space.

At Iconic Doors, we were commissioned to design, supply, and install multiple luxury steel door systems across the property, combining fire safety, contemporary design, and high-end architectural detailing.

The project included:

A bespoke FD30 fire-rated steel door with side panel
A double sliding steel door system between the kitchen and lounge with fluted glass
A statement 5-metre sliding steel door with fixed panel and clear glass
Slim black steel profiles with precision-engineered detailing throughout

The finished result created a seamless balance between open-plan living and defined spaces, while preserving natural light throughout the home.

The Brief

The client wanted to introduce architectural steel glazing throughout the property while maintaining the bright, open feel of the home. Each steel door system needed to serve a specific purpose:

Provide fire safety compliance where required
Separate living areas without blocking light
Create statement design features
Complement the home’s contemporary interior design
Deliver a premium bespoke finish throughout

Because the property featured large open-plan spaces, retaining natural light was a major priority. Different glazing styles were chosen for each installation to balance privacy and openness depending on the area of the home.

FD30 Fire-Rated Steel Door with Side Panel

The first installation featured a bespoke FD30 fire-rated steel door with a fixed glazed side panel.

Unlike standard fire doors, this system combined certified fire performance with luxury steel door aesthetics. The slim black steel framing and glazed side panel helped maintain the modern architectural appearance of the property while meeting the required fire safety standards.

Key features included:

FD30 fire-rated steel door system
Bespoke side panel glazing
Slimline black steel profiles
Fire-rated glazing system
Contemporary powder-coated finish
Precision-engineered hardware

This installation proves that fire-rated steel doors can still deliver exceptional design without compromising safety or compliance.

Double Sliding Steel Doors – Kitchen to Lounge

To separate the kitchen from the lounge area, we installed a bespoke double sliding steel door system featuring fluted glass.

The doors slide open from the centre, creating a wide opening between the two spaces while allowing the homeowner to close off the rooms when needed for privacy, noise reduction, or entertaining.

The fluted glass adds texture, softness, and subtle privacy while still allowing light to flow naturally between the rooms.

The project included:

Double sliding steel doors
Slim black steel framework
Fluted toughened safety glass
Smooth sliding track system
Minimalist contemporary detailing

The result is a perfect blend of practicality and luxury interior design.

Statement 5-Metre Sliding Steel Door with Fixed Panel

The standout feature of this project was a dramatic 5-metre-wide sliding steel door installation with a fixed glazed panel and clear glass.

Designed to separate a large open-plan area without sacrificing natural light, this bespoke system creates a striking architectural focal point within the property while maintaining complete visibility between spaces.

The scale of the installation required careful engineering to maintain ultra-slim sightlines while ensuring smooth operation and long-term durability.

Using clear glass allowed maximum daylight to travel throughout the home while preserving the spacious open-plan feel the client wanted to retain.

This installation demonstrates how large-format steel glazing systems can completely redefine interior spaces while still keeping the home bright, connected, and contemporary.

Combining Fluted & Clear Glass Steel Doors

One of the most effective aspects of this project was the combination of fluted glass and clear glass steel doors within the same property.

The fluted glass sliding doors offered greater privacy between the kitchen and lounge, while the large clear glass sliding partition maintained openness within the main living space.

Together, the systems created visual contrast while maintaining a cohesive luxury steel door design throughout the home.
