Hidden Doors vs. Flush Doors

A flush door has a flat face. A hidden or flush-to-wall system is designed to integrate the door and frame with the surrounding wall. These terms describe different aspects of the opening.

01

When a flush face is the goal

A flat door leaf can provide a clean modern appearance while retaining a visible frame or casing. It can be a good direction when the design calls for restrained surfaces without concealing the entire opening.

02

When the frame should disappear

A concealed system requires coordination with wall thickness, final finishes and installation sequence. Review the frame and wall junction before the finish work begins.

03

How to choose

Start with the intended appearance and existing opening. TrueFrames can review the site during a free measurement visit and quote the system and preparation separately.
