Sauna Door


The Sauna door must open out and it can have no lock: It should be only 24" wide to prevent unnecessary loss of heat and warpage. The door should not open directly into a spa area, as chlorinated humidity will rust the hinges and warp the door. Do not put a handicapped door (36") on a Sauna unless the room is large enough to accommodate the movement of a wheelchair, with proper ramp and grab bar (The metal wheelchair will get hot and will be uncomfortable for the operator. An attendant is necessary when a Sauna is intended for handicapped usage. E-Mail us for design assistance if needed).


Exclusive Glass Option

Our exclusive glass options have been custom designed and etched by an artist. When ordering this option, you have a choice of our unique Sauna design in positive or negative image, or a choice of our beautiful scenic design in the Mt. Hood image or the Multnomah Falls image. Etchings are available for the 24" door size only but some custom sizes may be special ordered. 












































Solid Glass Door

This door does not have any wood rails but is a solid slab of tempered safety glass 8mm thick in a gray or bronze tint (seasonal availability). Door is also available with custom order in green or satin tint or with two designs on satin.  A archtop bronze tint can also be ordered (custom door orders may take 2-3 months to fill). Solid glass door is needed if sauna opens into a high-humidty room such as a pool room, or when it is aesthetically desired. It is also a desirable door for high-use commercial saunas, for the door does not warp, twist, or shrink over time, as the standard door might in heavy use. Door jambs are Pine with extensions of interior paneling species.  Doors are available in 7x19, 7x21, 8x19, 8x20, 8x21, 9x19, 9x20, 9x21 (not all designs available in all sizes - sizes nominal)

7x19 = 27-9/16" x 74-3/4"
7x21 = 27-9/16" x  82-5/8"
8x19 = 31-1/2" x 74-3/4"
8x20 = 31-1/2" x  78-3/4"
8x21 = 31-1/2" x 82-5/8"
9x19 = 35-7/16" x 74-3/4"
9x20 = 35-7/16" x 78-3/4"
9x21 = 35-7/16" x 82-5/8"

How to order

Contact us to order. When you order specify:

FGD: Door slab only - no jamb or hardware or handles
FGD-R: Prehung with right hinge
FGD-L: Prehung with left hinge

Hinge is determined by standing outside Sauna room, facing the door.

Sauna door opens outside (diagram)

FGD-R has the hinges are on the right side. FGD-L has the hinges on the left side. FGD-l and FGD-R come complete with threshold, hinges, ball catch, and 2 wooden pulls. Standard jamb is 4 3/4" and there is an extra charge for jambs over 5 1/2". Standard Sauna doors are 24"x80" with an RO (rough opening) of 26"x82" (min.). Also available are 30"x80" doors with RO of 32"x82", and 36"x80" (ADA handicapped) with RO of 38"x82". Occasionally there is a supply of solid glass doors (no wood rails) - call for stock and sizes.

Custom all glass doors may also be ordered.

Possibilities include curved glass and pocket doors. Federal Building Code states that a Sauna door must open out and have no locks or turn handles on it (must be able to open by a gentle push).  A pocket door, thus, would only be allowed as a secondary door (requires a large room).
