What are patio doors?

The term patio doors can be described to use a number of different types of glazed door products, however it is most commonly used for describing sliding patio doors where one (or more) panels of the system slide on a track behind a fixed frame.

Patio French doors

Our aluminium patio doors are also available in a French door configuration, with double doors that open outwards. Ideal for smaller openings the double doors provide everyday usability whilst the slim frames of the aluminium system allow for larger panes of glass to let in light and make the most of the view out.

Folding patio doors

Our folding patio doors, or bifold doors, are designed for us in Germany by SUNFLEX. Their ability to concertina together to create a completely unobstructed opening make them perfect for those seeking to extend their living space out on to the patio. Manufactured from slim aluminium frames the SUNFLEX SF75eco combines design, performance and unique features not found on any other folding doors.

Fill your home with light

Sliding patio doors are ideal for filling your home full of natural light, whether you are replacing existing uPVC doors, adding an extension or undertaking a complete new-build. The large panes of glass and minimal frames pull light into your room, bringing the outside in.

Easy to operate

Whilst previous generations of sliding patio doors were often difficult and heavy to use, our modern, highly-engineered sliding door systems feature state of the art stainless steel running gear that makes even the largest panels up to 3m wide almost effortless to operate.

Extending and transforming @thelittleeastlondonterrace

When owners Katherine & Martin first purchased their modest Victorian era terraced house in East London, they saw not just what it was - but what it could become.

The two fitters who did the work were, helpful, and most importantly, did a really excellent job. I should also add that dealing with the admin side was also very easy and straight forward.  Doing our own self-build has been a real roller coaster, but this was one of the really smooth bits!
