Soleco Steel Door Frames

Why Steel Door Frames?

In a residential setting, the Concealed Frame epitomizes minimalist design with its sleek and understated aesthetic.

In a commercial environment, the Visible Frame is a durable easy-to-fit elegant solution that fulfills the demanding high-performance requirements of Hospitals, Offices & Supermarkets.

How They Fit

Two part frames clamp around the structural opening with no need for first fix joinery or subframes. See Fitting Instruction Videos.

How They Work

The Soleco Frame is a ready-to-install door frame with pre-installed hinges, lock strikes, and seals, and comes pre-painted. Often, no first fix is needed, as the frame supports the door on its own. When ordered as a configured package, on-site work is minimal. It functions like any standard door frame.

Fire Rating

Simplis work with many door manufacturers to offer a range of tested solutions. We work in partnership with C W Fields who will tailor a door to perfectly fit the Soleco Frames.

Aesthetics
Sharp crisp frames in any RAL colour setting off flush fitting timber doors in. Contrasting veneers or matching paint finishes tick all the boxes for today’s minimal architectural look.

Maintenance

Soleco frames are the cost effective option for on-going maintenance responsibilities. Each frame has a serial number so even if damaged can be identified and easily replaced.

Easy to Clean

Hygienic Stainless steel & anti-bacterial coatings are available. The architrave forms part of the frame so there are no additional parts creating hard to clean joins.

Easy to Fit

No specialist on site skills are needed, see our fitting video. Soleco frames adjust to fit your wall width and can be ordered with a prepared door as a set to make any project simple.

Pre-hung

Soleco frames come as a complete kit with no on site work required to prepare hinge or lock positions. Please see our fitting video. Skilled site time is simplified & reduced dramatically.

Pre-painted

Soleco frames are finished in textured matt or high Gloss colours. A full range of veneers, laminates or paint finishes can be specified for the doors with vision panel and hardware options.

Installation

Installing a door frame is one of the last skilled building elements to be carried out on site. Soleco frames and doors are made to arrive on site fully finished with integral architraves.

Easy to Specify

Simplis can provide drawings in any format, NBS specifications, arrange samples and make site or office visits.
