Supplying and Installing a Sliding Glass Door

Russcos Glazing Supplies and Installs Black Framed Dark Grey Glass Sliding Door at Eton Home

At Russcos Glazing, we are passionate about providing high-quality glazing solutions that improve both the look and functionality of homes across Queensland. Recently, we completed a project at a beautiful residence in Eton, Queensland, where we supplied and installed a Hamilton Glass sliding door with a striking black frame and dark grey glass. This installation has transformed the home, providing the owners with a modern, stylish, and practical access point to their outdoor space.

Project Overview

The homeowners in Eton were looking for a way to upgrade their old rear door to something more modern and durable. They wanted to create a seamless connection between their indoor living area and outdoor entertaining space while also improving natural light, airflow, and security.

After consulting with the Russcos Glazing team, they selected a Hamilton Glass sliding door featuring a sleek black aluminium frame and dark grey tinted glass. This combination provided exactly what the homeowners were after: a contemporary look with functional benefits, such as reduced glare and better privacy.

The sliding door measured 2095mm in height and 1815mm in width, a substantial size that provided a wide, easy-to-use entryway. The door was installed in an XO configuration, where the left panel is fixed, and the right panel slides open. This configuration is one of the most popular sliding door styles as it offers a large opening while maintaining stability and smooth operation.

Key Features of the Hamilton Glass Sliding Door

The Hamilton Glass sliding door selected for this project is renowned for its durability, smooth sliding action, and modern design. One of the standout features was the black powder-coated aluminium frame, which offered not only a sleek and stylish appearance but also excellent resistance to Queensland’s harsh coastal weather conditions. Black frames are especially popular in modern architecture, as they provide a sharp contrast to surrounding walls and window treatments, adding visual interest and sophistication.

The door was fitted with dark grey tinted glass, which offered several benefits:

• Reduced Glare: The dark tint helps block harsh sunlight, reducing glare inside the home and making living spaces more comfortable throughout the day.
  
• Enhanced Privacy: The tint makes it more difficult for people outside to see in during daylight hours, adding a layer of privacy without the need for blinds or curtains.
  
• UV Protection: Tinted glass helps limit the amount of UV radiation entering the home, which can protect furniture, flooring, and fabrics from fading over time.
  
• Improved Energy Efficiency: By reducing heat entry, the dark grey glass helps keep the interior cooler, potentially lowering energy costs related to air conditioning.
  

Expert Sliding Glass Door Installation by Russcos Glazing

Russcos Glazing managed the entire process, from product selection and measurement to supply and installation. For sliding doors, precision is critical to ensure smooth operation and long-term performance, so our experienced team conducted careful onsite measurements before manufacturing the door to specification.

The installation process began with the removal of the existing door and preparation of the opening to ensure it was level and structurally sound. The Hamilton Glass sliding door was then fitted, aligned, and secured into place.

Our team thoroughly tested the door to ensure the sliding panel glided effortlessly and that the locking mechanism worked perfectly, providing both convenience and security. We also ensured that the door was properly sealed to protect against wind and rain, essential in the Queensland climate.

By the end of the installation, the door operated smoothly, looked fantastic, and provided the homeowners with exactly the solution they were seeking.

Benefits to the Homeowners

The installation of this black framed dark grey glass sliding door delivered immediate improvements to the Eton home. The homeowners now enjoy:

• A brighter living space with a strong connection to their outdoor area.
  
• Improved ventilation thanks to the easy-to-operate sliding panel.
  
• Enhanced privacy during daylight hours without sacrificing natural light.
  
• Modern curb appeal with the stylish black frame and sleek glass.
  
• Protection from harsh sunlight and reduced indoor temperatures thanks to the tinted glass.
