uPVC Sliding Door
Balcony and terrace doors that slide clear without stealing any room space.
Large glazed sashes running on tandem stainless steel rollers, with an interlocking centre stile and a drained bottom track. Because nothing swings, a sliding door works even where furniture sits right up against the opening.
Two, three and four track versions are available, with an optional mesh track for insect screening.
Key highlights
- 2, 3 and 4 track versions

Frequently asked questions
uPVC insulates far better and costs less for ordinary residential openings. Thermally broken aluminium is stronger, so it carries larger panels with slimmer frames. We usually specify uPVC for bedrooms, kitchens and bathrooms, and aluminium for very large sliders, stairwell glazing and anything above about 2.4 metres tall.
Not if the profile is UV stabilised and lead-free, which ours are. Yellowing happens with cheap unstabilised profile or recycled material. We supply a written warranty against discolouration.
An acoustic laminated inner pane inside a double-glazed unit, with the two panes at different thicknesses and a wide cavity. Just as important, choose a casement or tilt-and-turn window rather than a slider, because the sash needs to compress onto its gaskets to seal.
Yes. We bend profile on a heated forming table from a site template, so semi-circular, segmental and elliptical heads are all possible, fixed or with an operable lower sash.
