What are Sliding Doors?

Sliding doors are doors which slide rather than swing. They can be hinged on one or both sides and can have single or multiple panels. Sliding doors function in the same way as sliding glass doors, but they need to be able to pivot 180 degrees without breaking for floor-to-ceiling openings.

The greatest advantage of sliding doors is their versatility; they do not have to match the rest of your décor and can thus be used to make a statement in your interior design.

Present within the home for almost ever, sliding doors emerged as popular alternatives around 1930, and remain popular in today’s homes. Sliding doors offer flexibility and convenience while reducing the cost of opening and closing the door – indeed, you can open them from either end.

Features of Our Sliding Doors

Durable

The highest quality materials have been used to make our doors as durable and reliable as possible. They are easy to use, simple to fit and will last a lifetime.

Highly versatile

Our sliding doors are a great addition to your home. They can be used in many rooms and even replace some conventional doorways. These doors eliminate the need for separate rooms entirely.

The versatility of these sliding doors makes them a favourite amongst homeowners.

Affordable

One of the best things about sliding doors is they not only open up a whole new world of space and style, but they are cost-effective, easy to install and will save you both time and money. Plus it’s incredibly enjoyable to slide them open or closed. We have a sliding door for just about any project you have in mind, from high security to more decorative styles.

Smooth operation

Our sliding doors use a SLIDE system that involves aluminium profiles mounted on non-visible runners attached to the floor and ceiling of the space. This allows a measured, slow opening of the sliding door that is analogous to an opening curtain.

Available in different forms and designs

We offer the largest range of glass options which can often be glazed using several panes (woven together) for a thicker visual effect. We also style vinyl frames with glass, offering the traditional look of etched glass with added strength and longer life.

Glazing Options Available

  • Single Glazing
  • Double Glazing
  • Triple Glazing

Why Choose Sliding Doors

Energy-efficient

Sliding doors are the most energy-efficient type of glazed doors. This is because they stack well and don’t need to be air-conditioned, unlike hinged and sliding patio gates.

Unobtrusive

Sliding doors create an elegant and unobtrusive entrance while allowing for direct, unobstructed passage between interior rooms and the outside.

Versatile

They are used for closets, bathrooms and showers, as well as furnishings that need to be easily accessible but out of the way when not in use.

Space effective

Because they take up less space than swinging or hinged doors, sliding doors allow for more effective use of space if a room has little height, and they can occupy a narrow track on an otherwise large wall. Each of the doors can be individually opened or slid under next to each other for different amounts of glazing. Sliding doors allow you to open the whole length of your space and create an expansive feeling in any room, while still providing sound-blocking privacy.

Smooth operations

Our Sliding doors (or Glide doors) open smoothly, will save you space and are safest of all doors.

Easy to use

Our sliding doors are easy to operate and if you have a lot of stuff or simply want the least amount of effort to open your door, then sliding doors are what is meant for you.

Great value for money

They can be made to fit your door size and this format has been proven over many years.

No threshold

If you look at the weather in the U.K, how many times have you seen the rain coming in through the gap between a standard door and landing? This will not happen with sliding doors as they do not have a threshold. This simple fact makes them far more practical than similar designs such as bi-folding doors. Also as they don’t have a threshold, you don’t have to take your shoes off to walk into the room.

FAQs

How much does it cost to build a sliding door?
When it comes to a custom door, every project is different. The price to build a sliding door will vary depending upon the required length of the door, what style you want and any changes that need to be made for the space. Sliding doors can be made from materials such as wood, metal or fibreglass. All of these materials will cost more or less depending on the style you choose. The costs to build a sliding door can range between £750 -£1,500 if you already have an existing framework and/or doors to replace.In most cases, sliding doors are double doors and have a higher cost than single or standard swinging doors.
Can you use any door as a sliding door?
Yes. You can use any door as a sliding door as long as it meets your measurements and there is enough room on the door to attach closers, sweeps and a track.

However, some sliding doors are designed so that they will not fit into any door frame. Also, double glazed sliding doors are intended for use in conservatories or as a secondary entrance to or from the garden, not as an alternative to a solid living room door.

How do sliding doors move?
Sliding glass doors are made up of panels of glass that slide against each other to function as both doors and windows. Most sliding glass doors have a track system that the panel slides onto after pulling the handle, which allows them to easily move in and out.
How much does it cost to replace a sliding patio door?
The average cost to replace a sliding glass patio door is £1,390. This includes most of the material to do the job, but does not include removal and disposal of the old door nor getting the slider to fit through your door and wall opening.

The largest portion of the cost is labour for replacing a sliding patio door, which can vary from £75-£450 depending on how long it takes to remove and reinstall the second slider. To obtain a free, no-obligation quote, call us or fill a form on our website.

How soon can you install a sliding door for me?
We can install sliding doors the same day you call us. It will take us about one or two hours to install it.
Are Aluminium sliding doors a good idea?
Aluminium sliding doors are lightweight and easy to operate. Sliding doors are made of extruded aluminium profile (wedge) extruded from a system which produces a thin and consistent wall thickness designed for strength and durability.When it comes to the choice of door, aluminium has many advantages over wood or steel.

The effective thermal and sound insulation properties of aluminium mean that home-owners can benefit from enhanced natural illumination. The use of double-fibreglass for the main body of the door provides complete energy efficiency, with maximum protection offered through security glazing options.
