The great advantage of timber sliding doors over other patio door designs is the extent of uninterrupted glass they allow when closed. This results in increased natural light and an unobstructed view of the outside landscape.
Guided by our own stringent Glazing Visual Quality Standard, we accept only the best glass, guaranteeing maximum light inside and the clearest view looking out. We offer a number of sliding door configurations to suit the layout of the room and the size of the reveal. All configurations allow for very large and heavy doors (up to 400kg in weight) to be specified without compromise of the sliding performance
Our multi-point locking system provides a high degree of security. Additional security is offered by the concealed, interlocking aluminium meeting rail, while contributing to the doors’ exceptional weather performance.
Please note that these product properties are not a replacement for the manufacturer's literature and it is always recommended that George Barnsdale & Sons Ltd is consulted before specifying.

Yes, sliding patio doors do require some maintenance so they function smoothly and remain secure over time. Regular maintenance typically involves cleaning the tracks to prevent debris build-up, which can hinder the sliding mechanism.
Lubricating the rollers and hardware can also help maintain easy operation. It’s important to periodically inspect the seals and weather stripping to ensure they remain intact, as this helps with energy and preventing draughts.
