Frequently Asked Questions
What does left-hand sidelight mean?
Left-hand refers to the position of the sidelight panel when viewed from the outside of the building. On this unit, the sidelight is on the left side of the door. The door opens inward unless otherwise specified at the time of order.
Can I get this unit with an outward-opening door?
Yes. Outward opening is available upon request at no extra charge. Simply specify your preferred opening direction when placing your order.
Is glass included with this sidelight frame?
No. This listing is for the meranti timber frame unit only. Glass is not included and must be sourced and fitted separately by a qualified glazier. The frame is designed to accept standard glazing once installed.
Is the door included?
No. This is a sidelight frame unit only. The door leaf is sold separately. Browse our range of interior and entrance doors at Doors Direct to find a compatible door for your opening.
What does no bottom cill mean?
This frame is supplied without a bottom cill (the horizontal timber member at the base of the frame). This is suitable for installations where a separate threshold, tile, or floor finish will be used at the base of the opening. If you require a bottom cill, please contact us to discuss a custom option.
Are custom sizes and designs available?
Yes. If your opening does not match the standard 1219 x 2076mm unit size, or if you require a different design or right-hand orientation, custom options are available. Contact Doors Direct with your requirements for a quote.
