Like ordinary products, invisible ones are presented ready-made solutions, as well as models for decoration, which involve camouflage as interior decoration.
The manufacturer only primes door structures for finishing. Each model is “naked” and requires further finishing to match the wall. After purchasing a concealed door for painting, you can wallpaper it, plaster it, or paint it. This way the opening is camouflaged and blends into the general background. Depending on the opening mechanism, there may be a handle, but in the form of a vertical cut on the canvas.
The factory finish has an invisible fabric, but clearly visible boundaries. In some models, invisibility is not assumed at all; they are made of transparent, frosted or enameled glass. A custom door can be veneered with veneer imitating Wall panels. But some users do not want to disguise the door and blend it with the general background, but order a model made of material opposite to the walls.
Doors for hidden installation have their own technical and aesthetic characteristics, which can be called the pros and cons of the design. The advantages include the following qualities:
The disadvantages of this door type applies:
No matter how much you would like to introduce a European novelty into your interior, sometimes installing invisible ones is impossible or undesirable. There is no need to hide the door where it does not fit into the style of the room. Models of invisible doors fit harmoniously into an interior decorated in the style of modernity, minimalism, modernism or high-tech, but the classics, which are characterized by palace luxury, can only be disrupted by invisible structures. Indeed, in such a classic composition, it is the massive doors with platbands, trim and panels that represent the accent and an important decorative element.
Also, there will be no fastening of the secret box good idea, if the owner plans to replace standard door. Installation of invisibles is a rather complex process that requires violation of building regulations. Therefore, it is carried out only when planning a full-scale renovation or redevelopment.

Many living spaces do not have enough space to install swing doors. Can come to the rescue sliding design, however, it is not always convenient when it opens along the wall. Sliding interior doors hidden in the wall , will be able to simultaneously solve the problem of lack of space and insufficient aesthetics of the room.
In order to make it invisible when open, it can be hidden in the wall. There are two ways to solve this problem:
The pencil case performs several important functions:
You can make hidden ones yourself. The process is creative and not overly complicated. To create a design you will need to purchase furniture fittings, parts for pencil cases and accessories for doors. The pencil case is a continuation of the wall, inside of which the door will be hidden.
An important component is special fittings for a sliding door: you will need a cassette specially created for such a project and guides for the door leaf. In order to set the canvas in motion, rollers and rails are used, which can be located either in the upper or lower part of the structure, or in both. Don't forget about the limiter - stopper.
Most often, to create a niche for the canvas, part of the main wall is destroyed, then it is restored using a plasterboard sheet. The point is that sliding interior doors, the pencil case of which is made in this way, can completely disappear when opened, and the pencil case will not extend beyond the main wall, that is, its presence will not be visually noticeable.
Next important stage work is the installation of guides. They must be positioned strictly horizontally, otherwise the door will be difficult to open or will warp, making it extremely difficult to open such a structure.
Interior doors into the wall must be equipped with special handles. For this purpose, special recesses are made in the canvas. It is impossible to hang a standard handle on such a door, otherwise it will interfere with the opening of the door and will not allow the panel to hide completely in the pencil case.
Scheme sliding mechanism doors. Before you begin installing the cassette, you need to make sure that the floor plane is perfectly level. The same rule applies to the ceiling. The verticality of the walls is also checked: if the surfaces are uneven, the canvas may cling to them when opening.
Before closing the pencil case with plasterboard, it is necessary to install the door leaf and mechanisms for opening it. If you don't do this on at this stage, it will be impossible to bring the work to its logical conclusion.
Installation of the pencil case occurs using mortgages; they are set in advance. The upper mortgages are needed to ensure that the canvas does not move. They reliably hold it in a given direction and prevent it from bending. In addition, you will need to install a wrapping box: this is necessary for proper fixation of the canvas.
Scheme of a pencil case with dimensions for an interior door. Built-in sliding interior doors will work correctly only if you determine the door leaf before covering the wall with plasterboard correct position. You can make it so that it does not go completely into the wall, then it will be convenient to pull it by the handle.
Doors that hide in the wall Many owners want to hide the door completely, in which case it will be hidden in the wall along with the handle. In the second case, to remove the door you need to use a lock with a button, when pressed, a spring will be activated, pushing the door out of the socket.
The size of the pencil case should be taken into account correctly. The block should be slightly larger than the door leaf if you want it to go completely into it.
Sliding doors, pencil case closed type have the following advantages:
Design disadvantages:
Sliding door into the wall – This is an original aesthetic solution for any interior. It will help increase space, make open door invisible, use all available space in the room as profitably as possible.
The desire to make a unique and inimitable design led to the creation unusual doors. These are hidden doors without platbands. This design completely merges with the wall. Unusual solution allows you to visually expand the space. The absence of a classic door gives the interior an exceptional look, allowing it to maintain an unrivaled design.
Classic door blocks have clearly defined frames. They precisely mark the boundary of the entrance in the wall. The joint between the frame and the wall is covered with platbands. Even if you select the canvas and trim to match the color of the wall, they will stand out noticeably. This significantly limits design possibilities, since in this case the door is one of the main elements of the interior and is difficult to hide if desired.
However modern interior assumes the presence of a minimum of details. This led to the creation of jambs without platbands.
Door designs for the bathroom or, for example, entrance doors can be installed independently if you take into account our recommendations. Metal constructions It is best to secure it with special nails.
A block installed flush with the wall, without a box or trim, even makes classic design unique. With this solution, only a small gap in the wall is visible, which can be painted to match the color of the walls. To install the door in the same plane as the wall, a special hidden box is used, which is not visually visible. The only fragment that remains noticeable is the small gap between the canvas and the box. The door panel can be chosen in any color; it can also become a continuation of the pattern on the wall. Thanks to the use hidden loops and the absence of the usual door frames it is located in the same plane as the wall.
This solution is suitable for both modern and classic interior. The space visually expands, you can resort to an elegant, subtle style. Such blocks have also gained popularity in the loft style. The door leaf can be covered with wallpaper or photo wallpaper, ideally fitting into a single plane with industrial design.
If it is necessary to make the passage unnoticeable on both sides, double-sided hidden doors are used. And if the one-sided one is not visible in one room, then the double-sided one is installed flush with the walls in both rooms.
The thickness of the canvas in this case is equal to the thickness of the wall. In this case, the panel is made of a frame or low-density solid wood, which makes the structure quite lightweight.
Let's consider in what cases it is necessary to install doors without platbands.
Using invisible doors gives big advantage in creating a modern original design interior other than classic solutions. Jambs without platbands allow you to design the most unusual projects. This opportunity arose thanks to the use of hidden door frames. When placed flush with the wall, it becomes almost invisible.
In addition to hidden door frames, a number of elements are used, such as special hidden hinges, magnetic or hidden locks, magnetic seals, hidden handles. This fitting allows you to achieve maximum realism when simulating the surface.
There are many materials and styles of door trim available. The use of non-standard solutions will allow you to use canvases as wall decoration. Similar panels They are made from exotic woods and painted with acrylic paints in the colors of the general palette of the room. Acrylic paints Both glossy and matte are used. It is also possible to use exclusive materials such as Swarovski crystals.
Door frames for hidden structures are made of aluminum, which gives the structure a significant margin of safety. For surface finishing at the assembly stage, special MDF is used.

Blocks with a hidden frame have a number of advantages over classic interior doors:
The design of the hidden door frame allows you to increase the thickness of the door leaf up to 50 mm. This solution has an effective effect on noise reduction.
Soundproofing standard interior paintings is 25 dB, the same figure for hidden blocks will be 35 dB, which gives them an undoubted advantage.
The canvases are manufactured in sizes up to 1300x3500 mm. Sometimes the height of the panels is equal to the height of the room in which the unit will be installed. The thickness of the canvas ranges from 40 to 60 mm. Solid thickness gives a significant increase in sound insulation. This solution is achieved by using innovative technologies.
Installing a hidden structure requires more time and effort than classic interior doors. It is recommended to install a hidden box during the construction of walls, so when planning a renovation, you should think about installation in advance. Depending on the material from which the partitions are made, the installation method may vary.
In walls made of brick and gas silicate blocks, the installation of the box is carried out before applying plaster. Partitions made of plasterboard are mounted on a frame made of metal profiles. IN finished walls the box is installed after removing the plaster near the doorway. After installation, plaster is applied or sheets of drywall are attached, which makes the box hidden.
The required condition for installing a hidden frame is a wall thickness of at least 10 cm. This allows assembly in most types load-bearing walls and partitions.

It is better to carry out installation before finishing the floor. The box is installed on special anchors. To level the frame vertically and horizontally, use a level and mounting wedges. After which the gap between the box and the wall is filled with two-component foam. Then a special highly elastic solution is applied to the box to prevent cracks from forming between the plaster or drywall and the frame. Using a special solution is preferable reinforced mesh or non-woven fabric, since these materials do not provide good contact during surface vibrations.
