DESIGNED AROUND YOU
Sliding doors.
Fixed glazing.
One considered design.
Combine opening glass doors with fixed glazing to bring daylight, views and access into a contemporary home. We design and install glazing layouts for large new-build houses as well as individual projects in existing homes.
Our free site survey and design service helps coordinate the opening sizes, glazing specification and junctions with your architect and project team. Structural requirements and the final specification are assessed for each project.
THE DETAIL MATTERS
Start with the
right questions.
Why combine fixed glass with sliding doors?
Fixed glazing can continue a view alongside the access provided by sliding panels. The balance depends on how the room is used and where panels can park. Ask for an elevation that distinguishes fixed panes from moving doors and shows the clear opening.
Which details need to match across the elevation?
Review glass appearance, visible junctions, head and base levels, and the connection between fixed and opening elements. Supporting structure and weathering need coordination across the whole assembly. Confirm the actual details in the agreed drawings.
What helps us develop a coordinated proposal?
Send the elevation and sections with approximate dimensions, finished floor levels and site photographs. Mark access routes and any preferred corner arrangement. Confirm the responsibilities for structure, drainage, waterproofing and making good alongside the glazing quotation.
