The Complete Guide to Concealed Door Frames

A concealed door frame is a hidden framing system designed to sit inside the wall and create a flush, seamless door finish with no visible trims.

INVI Jamb is a galvanised steel system designed for modern architectural interiors and long-term durability.

What Is a Concealed Door Frame?

A concealed door frame is installed within the wall structure during construction.
It removes the need for architraves and visible trims.

The door aligns flush with the wall surface, creating a continuous finish.

Also known as:

  • Frameless door jamb

Why is the door frame so important?

Concealed door frames integrate directly into wall framing.

They function through:

  • Hidden steel frame inside drywall

The finished result is a door that blends into the wall surface.
