Glass doors require a completely different approach to locking compared to wooden or metal doors. Standard drilling tools crack glass panels. Standard lock bodies don't fit frameless glass profiles. And most general locksmiths don't carry the specialist fittings needed for glass door installation.
Mr. Locksmith specialises in glass door lock supply and installation across Dubai apartments, offices, showrooms, and commercial premises. Our technicians carry glass-specific fittings and use techniques that protect the glass throughout the installation process.
The most common lock type on frameless glass doors in Dubai offices and showrooms. A patch fitting is a metal clamp that grips the glass panel directly - no frame required. The lock cylinder sits within the patch fitting. Available in satin chrome, polished chrome, and matt black to match modern office interiors.
Used where one glass door meets another glass panel - common in Dubai apartment interior glass doors and hotel room entrances. The lock body connects both glass panels without requiring a frame or wall attachment.
Fitted at the floor or ceiling pivot point of a floor-to-ceiling glass door. Common in Dubai commercial premises, hotel lobbies, and high-end residential properties. The pivot lock engages when the door closes and releases with a key or thumb turn.
A deadbolt specifically designed for frameless glass doors. Provides the security of a full deadbolt without requiring a timber or metal frame. Used on Dubai apartment balcony glass doors and interior glass room dividers.
A specialist locking mechanism for sliding glass doors - common on Dubai apartment balconies and villa garden entrances. Provides hook-bolt security without drilling through the glass panel itself. See our sliding patio door lock installation service for full details.
Dorma - German brand. The most widely specified patch fitting brand in Dubai for commercial glass doors. Available in all standard sizes.
Ingersoll Rand - commercial grade glass fittings used in hotels and managed buildings.
Yale - residential glass door locks suitable for apartment interior glass doors and balcony entrances.

Glass door lock installation requires specialist tools, including glass clamps, torque limiters, and diamond-tipped drill bits. Our technicians are trained to work on toughened, laminated, and standard glass without risk of cracking. We carry the most common glass door fittings on every van for most standard Dubai glass door profiles.
