Why sliding patio doors suit so many rooms
Sliding patio doors move along a track rather than swinging open, so no floor space is lost to a door arc. That makes them ideal where furniture sits close to the opening, and the large glass panels keep the garden in view all year round.
Two, three and four-panel configurations cover most openings. Decide which panel slides and which stays fixed based on how you walk out to the garden, and consider a low threshold if you want a step-free route outside.
Replacing existing patio doors
Patio doors replacement is often straightforward when the new set fits the existing opening. Older sliding doors can become stiff, draughty or cloudy as rollers wear and sealed units fail, and a modern replacement transforms both the operation and the look of the room.
If the opening is being widened at the same time, the lintel and structure come into the conversation. The survey checks the opening, the floor levels and the outside paving so the written quote covers the whole job, including making good.
How much do patio doors cost?
Patio doors prices depend on the width and configuration, the frame material, the glass specification, the colour and the threshold detail. uPVC is usually the more affordable route; aluminium gives slimmer frames and larger panels.

Frequently Asked Questions
How wide can patio doors be?
Standard patio doors come in widths from 1.5m to 4m. For wider openings, consider our bifold or multi-panel sliding options.
Are sliding patio doors secure?
Absolutely — modern patio doors feature multi-point locking, hook bolts, anti-lift pins and toughened glass.
Can patio doors be fitted in place of a window?
Often yes, but the opening usually needs altering and the structure checking. The survey assesses the wall, the lintel and the floor levels before any work is quoted.
Are sliding patio doors secure?
Modern patio doors use multi-point locking with hook bolts and anti-lift devices. Compare the locking specification in the written quote rather than relying on the material name.
Which is better, sliding or bifold doors?
Sliding doors keep large uninterrupted glass panels and need no stacking space; bifolds open the full width. The right answer depends on your opening, furniture and how you use the garden.
Do patio doors come in colours?
Yes. uPVC and aluminium patio doors are available in a range of colours and finishes, including dual colour with a different shade inside.
