Sliding Patio Doors

The cost of patio doors can depend on the configuration you choose, the size of the door, the materials used and, crucially, whether installation is included. Anglian offer made to measure patio doors in aluminium and uPVC, available in various styles and configurations. Because every door is bespoke to your home, every price will be different.

How secure patio doors are can depend on the manufacturer you get them through. If you get your patio doors through a supply only company, they may not include locks or have multiple options which might not all be as secure as one another. Supply and fit companies like Anglian tend to use the same high-quality locks in their doors. Our patio doors come with multi-point locking with a strong 3-star rated cylinder lock.

With regular care and maintenance, a high-quality and professionally fitted sliding patio door made from uPVC can last 20 years or more. Anglian White Knight uPVC patio doors hold the BBA accreditation, which means they can last more than 35 years with regular care. You can expect your aluminium patio doors to last 30 years or more with low level regular maintenance. This is due to their strength and long-lasting finish, powder coated to resist the elements and fading.

When buying a sliding patio door, make sure you have an idea of what the dimensions of your current doors are, as this will have the biggest impact on cost. It’s also worth thinking about what style you’d like, whether that’s French doors or sliding patio doors, both to suit the style of your home as well as work practically with your space. The material you choose is very important too, affecting affordability, energy efficiency and longevity.

The difference between a double door and a patio door is that most ‘double doors’ open outwards, while patio doors slide one behind the other. Double doors that usually open outwards are known as French doors. Patio doors don’t take up any extra internal or external space, as the doors slide neatly behind one another.
