Eclisse 40 - Hinged Aluminium Framed Glass System

The ECLISSE 40° Hinged Aluminium Framed Glass Door is a sophisticated architectural door system designed for contemporary interiors where visual precision, material quality, and design intent are paramount. Developed for architects and specifiers seeking an alternative to conventional flush doors, the ECLISSE 40° introduces a distinctive chamfered frame geometry that transforms the door into an integral architectural feature.

Unlike traditional hinged doors that rely on surface-mounted architraves or uniform flush detailing, the ECLISSE 40° system is defined by its dual-character frame design. On one elevation, the aluminium frame is inclined at 40 degrees, creating a sculptural, three-dimensional profile that frames the glass leaf and adds depth, shadow, and visual interest to the wall plane. This angled profile reads as a deliberate design gesture, allowing the door opening itself to become part of the architectural language of the space.

On the opposing elevation, the same frame resolves to a perfectly flush finish, achieving clean planarity with the wall surface. This duality allows architects to control how the door is perceived from different spaces—feature-driven on one side, minimal and discreet on the other—without changing the core system or compromising alignment.

The aluminium frame is precision-engineered to ensure tight tolerances, clean junctions, and long-term dimensional stability. The system is compatible with single hinged glass leaves,  allowing flexibility across residential, commercial, and hospitality applications. High-quality hinges and components ensure smooth, controlled operation, delivering a refined user experience consistent with premium architectural interiors.

A key strength of the ECLISSE 40° Hinged Glass Door lies in its finish versatility. The aluminium profiles are available in five exclusive finishes:

 • Three contemporary coloured finishes for coordinated interior schemes

 • A classic white finish for minimalist environments

. A primer-coated version, supplied ready for on-site painting to match bespoke colour palettes or project-specific finishes

This flexibility enables seamless integration into both restrained, neutral interiors and bold, design-led schemes. The frame becomes a defining architectural element rather than a concealed necessity, allowing designers to use colour, contrast, or continuity as part of the overall spatial concept.

The system is suited to modern construction methods and is designed to integrate cleanly with plasterboard and solid wall constructions, supporting crisp detailing at the wall interface. The absence of visible architraves reinforces the minimalist aesthetic while simplifying junctions and visual lines.

As with all products from ECLISSE UK, the ECLISSE 40° Hinged Aluminium Framed Glass Door reflects a system-led approach to design: engineered for reliability, repeatability, and specification confidence. It offers architects a distinctive yet controlled design solution—one that enhances spatial character without compromising functional performance or buildability.
