Timber Sliding Patio Doors
Smooth and effortless sliding patio doors
Our premium wood sliding patio doors offer an elegant solution for designing open, fluid living environments, particularly where space is at a premium on terraces and balconies. Because the panels slide parallel to one another, they require zero clearance inside or outside the room. They pair beautifully with our contemporary tilt and turn window designs to create a unified, modern architectural look. Engineered with minimalist profiles and expansive glass panes, these grand installations maximize your view while flooding your home with an abundance of daylight.

Scandinavian design and performance
Our sliding patio doors feature a clean, Nordic-inspired design that prioritizes sleek lines and maximum glass area. These premium timber systems are engineered to meet strict security requirements, offering full compliance with Part Q building regulations and carrying the official Secured by Design accreditation.
Designed for outstanding airtightness and energy efficiency, these doors are an ideal choice for low-energy new builds and EnerPHit (Passivhaus retrofit) developments. The standard double-glazed configurations deliver impressive thermal performance with Ud values starting from 1.1 W/m²K, while upgrading to triple glazing achieves an exceptional Ud value as low as 0.8 W/m²K.
Every installation can be tailored to your exact architectural vision. We offer a wide range of specialized glass enhancements, including custom glazing bar layouts, vibrant colored glass, leaded detailing, and obscured privacy options. For a truly unique touch, we can also integrate precision-etched patterns, artwork, house names, or door numbers directly into the glass panes.
Premium Timber Selections
Every door in our collection is expertly crafted from certified, sustainably sourced engineered laminated timber. We provide the choice between premium redwood (Scots Pine) and durable hardwood (Dark Red Meranti), both backed by our identical, comprehensive warranties. While both offer exceptional performance, our hardwood features a more open grain pattern, delivering a beautifully textured aesthetic that is especially striking when finished with a timber stain.

To ensure your home remains a peaceful sanctuary despite expansive glass panels, these systems can be outfitted with advanced acoustic double glazing capable of delivering an impressive sound reduction of up to 47dB.
Effortless elegance: lift and slide patio doors

Timber Sliding Patio Door FAQs
How effortless is it to operate heavy sliding doors?
Operating expansive and substantial glass panels is remarkably simple with an advanced lift and slide mechanism. The technology functions by raising the door panel slightly onto integrated rollers that glide seamlessly along the track, removing the physical strain of the door’s mass from the user. This innovative engineering guarantees a completely smooth, light, and effortless motion every time you open or close the doors.
Can sliding patio doors be delivered in separate parts for on-site assembly?
Because our sliding door configurations include at least one permanently fixed panel, the entire system is delivered fully assembled and factory-finished on specialized pallets. However, to simplify transportation, handling, and installation across your property, the moveable sliding panels can be temporarily unhinged and removed on-site during the fitting process.
Do you provide space-saving sliding patio doors that stack behind one another?
Yes, our sliding patio doors are designed to maximize floor space by neatly stacking behind the stationary, fixed panel of the door system when opened. This configuration ensures an unobstructed view and an efficient use of room layout without taking up valuable interior or exterior space.
Do your sliding patio doors carry official Passivhaus certification?
While our sliding patio doors do not hold official Passivhaus certification, they can be highly optimized to meet rigorous thermal efficiency standards. By incorporating advanced krypton gas-filled triple glazing, which features center-of-glass Ug values starting from 0.5 W/m²K, we can enhance the system to achieve an exceptional overall Ud value starting from 0.8 W/m²K.
What are the dimensions of the door threshold, and is a low-level or mobility cill available?
Our standard hardwood door threshold measures 190mm by 67mm. To ensure seamless accessibility, this system can be intentionally installed flush with both your internal and external floor finishes, creating a smooth, level mobility threshold that eliminates tripping hazards.
How much airflow does the integrated night vent provide?
When locked into the secure night vent position, the sliding door system delivers an impressive volume of fresh air, providing up to 265 m³/h of continuous air circulation throughout your home.
