Aluminium Sliding Patio Doors
Glazed Fixed Light
Our aluminium sliding patio doors feature a direct glazed fixed light, removing the need for a fixed dummy sash and providing a sleeker, more modern aesthetic. This design not only enhances the glass-to-frame ratio, allowing for more natural light and uninterrupted views, but also improves thermal efficiency by reducing unnecessary framing. This streamlined approach creates a cleaner, more contemporary finish while maintaining the durability and high performance expected from aluminium systems.
Installer Friendly Design
Our aluminium sliding patio doors are designed for hassle-free installation, featuring pre-gasketed, knock-in beads that eliminate the need for time-consuming glazing adjustments on-site. This allows for a quick, precise, and professional fit, reducing the margin for error while enhancing both efficiency and aesthetics. Combining installer-friendly design with premium performance, these doors streamline the fitting process without compromising on quality.
Powder-Coated Aluminium
Our range of garden patio doors in aluminium are made using powder-coated profile from Stellar Aluminium Systems, a brand of Epwin Window Systems. Powder coating involves the application of dry powder to the aluminium, which is then cured under heat to create a uniform finish. This coating serves as a protective barrier against harsh weather conditions, significantly prolonging the lifespan of our doors.
Polyamide Thermal Break
Modern aluminium doors such as our Stellar patio doors feature a thermal break – which in our case is made from polyamide which is a non-conductive material inserted between the inner and outer parts of the aluminium frame to reduce thermal transmittance.
Inline Sliding
The inline sliding design of our Stellar Aluminium door offers a user-friendly experience. This design allows the door panels to slide smoothly along a horizontal track, minimising effort and maximising accessibility. Inline sliding doors are particularly advantageous in spaces where floor space is limited, as they do not require additional clearance for the door to open, like Quickslide’s bifold doors.
Smooth Sliding Track System
Our aluminium sliding patio doors are manufactured with the purpose of being able to slide smoothly with large and heavy glass panels. The door panels are mounted on rollers that glide along a horizontal track, allowing the panels to slide parallel to a wall. This design not only saves space but also makes it easy to use.
Trickle Vent
Building regulations state that most glazing elements require trickle vents. Fitting trickle vents in windows or doors improves indoor air quality and allows airflow even when windows are closed. Trickle vents ensure that that modern buildings meet ventilation standards by balancing insulation properties with adequate airflow throughout the home. We use link vents (5000EA each), which require a 42mm add-on across and above the outer frame.

Glazing Options
Double Glazing
Our aluminium sliding doors come with 28mm double glazing as standard allowing plenty of sunlight to filter through. The glass used in our aluminium doors is comprised of 4mm toughened glass on one side and 4mm clear Low E toughened glass on the other.
Triple Glazing
Triple glazing is made up of three panes of glass with air or argon gas within each of the two pockets. Triple glazing work in the same way as double glazing although with triple glazing you get an extra pane of glass and an extra insulation barrier. The extra pane of glass offers better insulation values.
Spacer Bars
Spacer bars are placed around the perimeter of the glass panes to provide essential structural support and maintain consistent spacing between the panes. Choose from our selection of three distinct bar finishes to complement your door’s aesthetic and enhance its overall appeal.

Laminated Glass
You have the option to upgrade your sliding patio door with laminated glass for enhanced safety. One of the most notable advantages of laminated glass is its safety features. In the event of breakage, the interlayer holds the glass fragments together, preventing them from shattering into sharp pieces.

Weatherproofing
Our aluminium patio doors have been tested to the highest standards of water and wind resistance. The strong aluminium frames and large glass areas will allow natural light into a homeowner’s property, without compromising on weatherproofing. These doors are designed to be able to withstand harsh weather conditions. Our Stellar Inline doors offer both functionality and style, making them a great addition to any modern property.
Thermal Efficiency
Our aluminium doors incorporate a thermal break to insulate them against heat loss and to help keep the home at a consistent temperature all year-round. This thermally efficient design allows these doors to achieve impressive U-values, as low as 1.4 W/m²K with standard glazing and 1.0 W/m²K when installed with a triple glazed unit.
Security
These doors come with toughened glass as standard, providing a virtually shatterproof solution. The security of our aluminium patio doors is further assured by multi point lock mechanisms on the main opening panels. We also offer a PAS 24 security upgrade package to meet the substantial standards set out by building regulations. This combination of toughened glass and advanced security can provide peace of mind for any homeowner.
Manufacturing Guarantee
Our aluminium patio doors come with a manufacturing guarantee of up to ten years. Our extensive guarantee serves as testament to the quality of our doors. This extensive guarantee provides trade partners and homeowners alike with total peace of mind, protecting their investment over the first decade of regular use. Our commitment to excellence is reflected in the guarantee, making our external doors a great choice for premium residential projects.
Aluminium Sliding Patio Door Configurations
Aluminium Sliding Door Configurations
Sliding patio doors are available in various configurations to suit different needs, ranging from two to four panel designs. The 2-panel configuration is the most common, with one fixed sash and one sliding panel. The 3-panel design typically features two fixed panels and a central sliding door. For even larger openings, the 4-panel configuration allows two sliding doors to move either towards the centre or to one side.

Modern Sliding Patio Door Materials
Aluminium stands out as an excellent choice for sliding patio doors due to its unique combination of strength, durability, and aesthetic appeal. Aluminium frames offer exceptional structural integrity without compromising on slimline profiles, allowing for larger expanses of glass that maximise natural light and panoramic views.
Aluminium sliding doors are celebrated for their low maintenance requirements. This ease of maintenance, coupled with its modern and sleek appearance, makes aluminium a popular choice for those seeking both practicality and modern aesthetics for their living spaces.
We also offer uPVC sliding doors, for those seeking a similar style but in a different material, or bifold doors for a sleek aluminium profile with a folding out style.
Aluminium Sliding Patio Door Designs
When considering new doors, sliding doors emerge as a great choice for customers seeking the largest uninterrupted expanse of glass. These doors operate by sliding along a track rather than folding, meaning they open and close seamlessly in line with the patio or room layout. Our patio doors not only enhance versatility in interior design but also offers robust performance, making them a practical and aesthetically pleasing addition to any home.
Their smooth operation and sleek appearance make them a great choice for those prioritising both practicality and visual appeal. Whether installed in contemporary or traditional homes, sliding doors can transform any space into an inviting area flooded with natural light, enhancing the overall environment and charm of the home.
The latest design addition to our range is Quick-Glide Slide and Fold Doors, a perfect combination of bifold doors and sliding panels.

The decision as to which material your customer selects would be largely dictated on design and budget. Become a Quickslide trade partner and you can offer them the variety of choice.
