Coverless Solid-Cast Overpanel Pivot Patch Fitting for Glass Doors

El Coverless Solid-Cast Overpanel Pivot Patch Fitting for Glass Doors is designed for the upper section of frameless glass door systems where a clean, integrated appearance is required.

Unlike conventional patch fittings that use a separate decorative cover, this model features a coverless exterior combined with a solid-cast body, helping create a more compact and streamlined architectural finish.

The fitting is suitable for 10–12mm tempered glass, con 10mm glass being a common configuration. It can be used in double-action glass door systems and is suitable for both left-hand and right-hand installations.

Typical applications include offices, hotels, apartments, retail entrances and other commercial frameless glass door projects.

Coverless Patch Fitting Design

The key difference of this model is its coverless construction.

Traditional patch fittings often use a separate decorative stainless steel cover over the internal body. This model integrates the external form more directly into the fitting structure.

The result is a cleaner appearance with fewer visible component layers.

This design is particularly suitable for modern frameless glass door systems where architects and contractors want the hardware to remain visually compact.

Solid-Cast Body

The fitting is manufactured using a solid precision casting process.

The solid-cast construction creates an integrated body around the main pivot connection area and provides good dimensional stability for repeated glass door movement.

This structure is particularly useful in frequently operated commercial doors where consistent alignment of the upper pivot hardware is important.

Rather than making this page another general “stainless steel patch fitting” page, the key product characteristics are:

Coverless construction
Solid casting
Upper pivot connection
Frameless glass door application

These features clearly distinguish it from conventional covered patch fittings.

Upper Pivot Connection

Esto coverless overpanel patch fitting is installed in the upper area of a frameless glass door assembly.

Its primary role is to provide the upper pivot connection required for smooth door rotation.

When properly matched with the corresponding lower pivot or floor spring hardware, the upper fitting helps maintain:

• Accurate pivot alignment
• Stable door positioning
• Smooth opening movement
• Consistent glass door geometry
• Clean frameless appearance

The complete upper and lower pivot hardware should be selected as a compatible system.

Double-Action Door Design

The fitting is suitable for double-action glass door systems.

A compatible double-action system allows the door to swing in both directions.

The fitting can also be used for both:

Left-hand installation

y

Right-hand installation

This reduces the need to stock separate left- and right-handed versions for many standard projects.

Tempered Glass Only

This fitting is designed for use with tempered glass.

Suitable glass thickness:

10–12mm

Common configuration:

10mm tempered glass

Important Installation Note

This fitting is not intended for use with laminated glass.

Because patch fittings generally require accurately positioned cut-outs or holes in the glass, the fitting dimensions and drilling pattern should be confirmed before the glass is processed and tempered.

Door Size Guidelines

The following dimensions should be treated as reference limits for the corresponding hardware configuration:

Door Parameter	Guideline
Maximum Height	102 in / 2591mm
Maximum Width	42 in / 1092mm
Maximum Weight	194 lbs / 88kg
Common Glass Thickness	10mm Tempered Glass

The final allowable door size depends on the complete hardware system, including the lower pivot or floor spring, upper pivot configuration, glass processing and installation conditions.

For project orders, the door dimensions and weight should therefore be confirmed before hardware selection.

Surface Finish Options

The fitting is available in three standard finishes:

Mirror Polished

Provides a bright reflective stainless steel appearance for polished architectural glass hardware.

Satén

Provides a softer brushed appearance commonly used in commercial interiors.

Black

Suitable for contemporary frameless glass door projects using dark architectural hardware.

Matching the finish with the other visible door hardware helps create a more consistent finished installation.

Commercial Applications

El coverless solid-cast overpanel pivot patch fitting is suitable for frameless glass doors used in:

• Edificios de oficinas
• Hoteles
• Apartments
• Retail stores
• Commercial entrances
• Reception areas
• Interior glass partitions
• Architectural glass door systems

The coverless appearance makes it particularly suitable for projects where minimal visible hardware is preferred.
