Aluminium Sliding and Lift & Sliding systems
Space-saving design with smooth, effortless gliding!
Our fully thermally broken aluminium patios are a popular alternative to the bifolding doors. While not offering the option to fully open up the space, sliding patio is a fantastic space saving solution – you will not require to sacrifice any space internally or externally to allow for the doors to open.
Available in multiple options – from 2 panels sliding each way to 4 panels sliding to the outside, our aluminium patio doors are very versatile and highly popular amongst our client.
The system we use is Visoglide 1000. System which boasts a very slim, 35mm meeting rail between the sliding panes. This, combined with the sizes we can achieve (up to 5500mm on 2 leaf configuration!), makes our aluminium patio door a perfect answer if you are lucky enough to have a great view.
Our aluminium patios are available in two variants – slide only and lift & slide.
