dør uten utstikkende hengsler


Explanation:
Bildet viser en metalldør uten utstikkende hengsler, og kan i dette tilfellet være en verandadør (eller like gjerne et vindu).
Bildet viser at når døren er lukket, går den i ett med karmen, derav betegnelsen "flush". Avbildet hengsel er i sin helhet innebygd i karmen, slik at hengselen er usynlig når døren er lukket.
I praksis kan tydeligvis en slik dør kalles flush-dør på norsk, men denne betegnelsen krever en tilleggsforklaring, nemlig "dør uten utstikkende hengsler".
