Frameless Sliding Door
Custom frameless glass sliding doors for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Precision-manufactured toughened glass installed by East Auckland glaziers.
Frameless Glass Sliding Doors for East Auckland Homes
A frameless glass sliding door blurs the boundary between your indoor living space and your outdoor deck or garden. With no bulky aluminium frames interrupting the glass line, the view is unobstructed and the transition between inside and outside feels completely natural.
At Howick Glass, we design, supply and install custom frameless glass sliding door systems for residential and commercial properties throughout East Auckland. Every door is manufactured to the exact dimensions of your opening and fitted with precision-engineered sliding hardware for smooth, effortless operation.
Our frameless sliding doors use 12mm or 15mm toughened safety glass with top-hung or bottom-track sliding systems available. Hardware is available in polished stainless, satin stainless, and matte black finishes to complement your home’s design.

Frameless Glass Sliding Doors in East Auckland
Frameless Sliding Door Systems
Two main systems are available: top-hung and bottom-track. Top-hung panels hang from a ceiling track — the floor is completely clear for the cleanest aesthetic. Bottom-track systems run on a floor track, better suited for heavier panels and exposed exterior applications.
Multi-panel stacking configurations allow panels to stack behind each other, opening the full width of the aperture. Glass is typically 12mm toughened for residential use, 15–19mm for larger commercial applications.
Frameless Sliding Doors vs Bi-Fold Doors
Frameless sliding doors suit most standard East Auckland home deck connections — no panel swing space required, clean aesthetic, suitable for narrow spaces. Bi-fold doors suit very wide openings (4m+) where the full aperture needs to open completely. For most homes, frameless sliding delivers the best combination of aesthetics, practicality and value.
Frameless Sliding Door FAQs
Typically $2,000–$5,000+ installed depending on panel size, glass thickness, and hardware system. Multi-panel stacking configurations cost more. Contact us for a free quote specific to your project.
Frameless doors are designed for sheltered exterior or interior use. For fully exposed openings subject to significant weather, a semi-framed system with weather seals may be more appropriate. We'll advise at the quoting stage.
Absolutely — internal frameless sliding glass walls are excellent for flexible room division in open-plan homes. A sliding glass wall between living and study spaces gives privacy when needed while maintaining light and space when open.
The glass needs only a periodic wipe-down. Bottom-track systems should be cleaned periodically to remove debris. Hardware rollers should be checked annually. Quality hardware systems require very little maintenance under normal use.
