Patio Sliding Doors

The cost of patio doors varies depending on the material, size, glazing, and hardware options. uPVC and aluminium systems, like those supplied by Emerald Windows, differ in specification, so prices depend on the chosen features rather than a fixed amount.

Planning permission is not usually required for replacing or installing patio doors. In most cases, the installation only needs to comply with current UK Building Regulations, which certified installers such as Emerald Windows are approved to meet.

A patio door is a general term for doors that open onto outdoor areas. Sliding doors are one type of patio door that operate on a track, moving horizontally rather than swinging open. Emerald Windows supplies both sliding and other patio-style door systems.

Sliding patio doors typically last for several decades, depending on material quality, usage, and maintenance. uPVC and aluminium systems—like those installed by Emerald Windows—are designed to provide long-term durability with minimal upkeep.

Well-designed sliding patio doors can increase a home’s value by improving light, access, and energy performance. Modern systems supplied by Emerald Windows meet current efficiency and security standards, which are factors homebuyers often prioritise.
