HIDDEN DOOR: INSTALLATION AND HARDWARE

A hidden door is a complete system that includes a special frame, concealed hinges, a door panel, and finishing materials. The installation begins with mounting an aluminum frame flush with the wall, typically during the rough construction phase. This frame is essential for achieving a seamless wall-to-door transition — without visible casings or trims.

Once the frame is installed, walls are plastered, sanded, and finished to match the door. The panel itself may be primed for painting or covered with the same material as the wall — wallpaper, decorative plaster, or veneer. The result is a fully integrated look.

The key hardware element is the concealed hinge. These hinges provide not only visual invisibility but also functional precision. They can be adjusted in three directions — height, depth, and width — which is especially important for uneven walls. High-quality hinges support heavy or full-height panels without sagging.

Magnetic locks are commonly used to ensure smooth and silent closing. A push-to-open system can also be installed, allowing the door to open with a gentle press and eliminating the need for a handle. If a handle is desired, minimalistic inset designs are typically chosen to maintain the clean aesthetic.

Additional components like door closers and sealants can enhance sound insulation and create a soft, secure closing mechanism. Sliding hidden doors are also an option — the panel disappears into the wall, saving space and maintaining a streamlined look.

Installing a hidden door requires extreme precision. Even small misalignments can ruin the visual effect or impair functionality. That’s why professional installation using proper tools and techniques is crucial for success.

Hidden doors are not just a stylish design feature — they are complex systems that rely on accurate installation and reliable hardware. When done right, they offer long-term durability, effortless use, and a flawless visual result.
