5 Benefits of Hinged Glass Wine Cellar Doors for Your Home
At Glass Floor Systems Ltd, we’re proud to craft hinged wine cellar glass floors that blend luxury with practicality, enhancing homes across the UK as of August 2025. Our large wine cellar doors with hinged access, made in Sheffield with 25.5mm to 33mm toughened and laminated glass, offer a stunning solution for wine enthusiasts and designers alike. Whether you’re renovating a UK property or designing a new space, these doors bring elegance and functionality. Discover the top five benefits and why our bespoke designs stand out.
Benefit 1: Unmatched Safety with Invisible Non-Slip TreatmentSafety is paramount, especially in homes with children or frequent guests. Our hinged wine cellar glass floors feature an invisible non-slip treatment, achieving a PTV of 68—far exceeding the 36 minimum for low slip risk in dry conditions. This transparent coating, lasting up to five years, ensures secure footing without compromising the glass’s clarity. All doors are lockable as standard, keeping unauthorized access at bay, as seen in a recent Sheffield home installation this month.
Benefit 2: Customizable Elegance for Any SpaceNo two homes are alike, and our large wine cellar doors reflect that. Available in sizes up to 2300 x 1100mm for electric models, we tailor each door with bespoke steel frames in any Classic RAL colour. A client in August 2025 chose a custom green frame to match their decor, proving our flexibility. Visit our Gallery to see more designs tailored to unique spaces.
Benefit 3: Enhanced Natural Light and Aesthetic AppealUnlike traditional wooden doors, our glass doors with hinged access flood your wine cellar with natural light, creating a striking feature. This August, a Yorkshire property transformed its basement into a light-filled showcase with our hinged glass floor. The 25.5mm glass maintains structural integrity while elevating your home’s wow-factor, perfect for entertaining.
Benefit 4: Easy Access with Manual or Electric OptionsOur hinged wine cellar glass floors offer convenience with manual gas-strut systems or electric models for effortless operation. The electric version, installed in a Leeds home this month, features plug-and-play electrics and a key safety override. This versatility suits any lifestyle, from DIY enthusiasts to luxury homeowners. Learn more on our Learn page
Benefit 5: Durable, UKCA-Certified QualityCrafted in our Sheffield workshops with UKCA-certified steel frames (BS EN 1090) and Yorkshire-sourced glass, our doors promise longevity. A recent installation withstood heavy foot traffic, thanks to our rigorous standards. Unlike mass-produced imports, our bespoke approach ensures durability, backed by a 10-year warranty on materials.
