Patio Sliding Door
Constructed for residential newbuild, refurbishment and light commercial applications, the patio sliding door system is a high-quality, stylish solution. Extensive security testing helps to provide peace of mind, while narrow profiles offer uninterrupted views to the outside without sacrificing thermal efficiency.
Features and benefits
Perfect for those wanting to make the most of their view, the patio sliding door is a reliable, durable and visually appealing solution. Featuring large-scale glazing and minimal sightlines, this door system is an excellent alternative to a traditional French or folding sliding door.
- Ultra slim profiles: With its reduced sightlines, the sliding door acts as a removable wall that can completely open up the home to the garden.
- High thermal performance: The patio sliding door can achieve U values of up to 1.6 W/m2K*.
- Soft brake closing: Designed to enhance safety, durability and user experience by preventing the doors from slamming shut.
- Tried-and-tested: The PAS 24 certified version is available for added security in the home.
* Based on AD L 2021 sizes with standard Ug 1.0 W/m2K DGU, ultimate spacer as per Approved Document L requirements.
