Traditional Sliding Glass Doors

Our friends at Sightline Doors have taken some photographs of a new installation of Sightline sliding glass doors and the view through the doors. Unfortunately, as often happens, the view is of a building site!

Door companies are always keen to show off their doors in fabulous settings but we need to be invited back by the customer when all the work is finished (and this may not be cost-effective if the site is a half-day round trip) or, sometimes, the customer takes some photographs and sends them to us, for which we are extremely grateful.

So, when looking at these photographs, please look at the doors and ignore the view!

Sightline Doors are traditional sliding glass doors with a difference - each door panel can be as large as 3m by 6m so if you have an exceptional high or wide door requirement, these are the guys to contact. Visit www.sightlinedoors.co.uk for further details.

Architectural Glass added to Sightline Doors Website

For home-owners looking for contemporary alternatives to wrought iron railings, wooden fencing, brick or concrete posts around a terrace or balcony, Sightline Doors has a choice of Glass Balustrades with clean lines, with curved glass if required, and Glass 'Juliet' balconies.

If you live in a light-house, converted water tower, medieval castle or other circular building - perhaps an art deco style property - Sightline Doors can arrange to supply and fit thermally compliant double-glazed curved glass doors and toughened glass balustrades to create an additional wow to your already pretty stunning residence.

Wide Expanse of Glass Doors for Spacious Contemporary Living

Seven UltraSlim Doors across the back of this lovely home bring a modern, contemporary look and feel, allowing natural light to flood into the room whilst providing a panoramic view from inside.

Additionally, UltraSlim slide-and-turn doors are fully retractable, providing approximately six metres of uninterrupted access between house and garden.

Of course, if preferred, only one door need be opened - or as many doors as needed to form a wider access - or the doors may be spaced along the guides with gaps for walking through where required.

Find out how much it will cost to replace your patio doors with the new generation of SunSeeker UltraSlim Doors. Contact us for a quote, today.

How Slim are UltraSlim Door Frames?

When considering door frame widths, remember that when two doors are together, the width is approximately double. For example, a standard frame that is one and a half inches wider than a slim frame will obscure an additional three inches of your potential view through the centre of a pair of doors.

Our client wanted to see more of the lovely view from inside the home (below).

This is a good example, where we have captured the image of the old door and placed it next to the new doors to illustrate the difference in frame widths:

UltraSlim Frames can be seen as pairs that are jointly slimmer than a single frame on the old door.
Some typical sizes of door frames are:

• SunSeeker UltraSlim 19mm / 38mm pair
• SunSeeker Slimline 60mm / 120mm pair
• Aluminium frames, typically 72mm / 144mm pair
• Typical upvc frame, up to 80mm / 220*mm
  *sometimes, there is an additional post to encase the locking mechanism

The difference between 220mm and 38mm is approximately SEVEN inches!

EXTRA LARGE Glass Doors: up to 6 metres high or wide per glass door

You can now invite Hagrid into your home - or any other giant - by having Sightline Doors installed.

Sightline glass sliding doors are available in door sizes of up to 6m x 3m which can be fitted as very tall doors or as quite tall very wide doors.

A double glazed unit of such proportions is considerably heavy therefore Sightline Doors use an easy slide gliding wheel system that makes it possible to open and close them without effort. Their narrow 14mm side frames are made from aluminium and available to order in a choice of frame colours: black, white, brown, cream, silver, grey ... to green, blue, golden, sepia, burnt umber, maroon or pink!

Sightline Doors are made to order, in the UK. Architects - contact us to discuss your particular requirements.

Recent Feedback from our Customers

9/6/2013, from Terry: "...please find attached images of the installation you did in Bolton. Everyone is really happy and the fitting team did a first class job..."

17/6/2013, from Paul: "I thought I would just email you regarding our recent experience with Tony Hall who represents your company.
My wife and I have driven poor Tony mad with trying to make up our minds regarding what doors to have at our property.
Tony has been superb from the start and incredibly knowledgable, patient and helpful there has been no pressure on his part.
We have now paid a deposit and are very much looking forward to the installation of our new windows which I am sure will enhance our amazing view.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Tony and Sunseeker Windows."
