SGS Window Installations

Sliding patio doors deliver large openings and uninterrupted views with the smooth inline operation that bi-folds simply cannot match. Modern sliding systems combine slim sightlines, exceptional thermal performance, and oversize panes โ€” perfect for connecting a kitchen, dining or living space to the garden.

SGS specifies Smart Visoglide aluminium sliders for most premium projects โ€” Smart's flagship sliding patio system, available in 2-, 3-, 4- and 6-pane configurations with single-leaf widths up to 3m.

Common questions

Frequently asked

Should I get sliding doors or bi-folds? +
Sliding doors give larger uninterrupted glass when closed; bi-folds give a wider full-open aperture. For garden views and most of the year, sliders win on aesthetic and thermal performance. We'll talk through the specific layout during your survey.
How secure is a composite door? +
Every door we install is PAS24:2016 accredited and Secured by Design. Combined with a Yale 3-star or Ultion cylinder it represents the highest level of front-door security available on the residential market.
Will it warp or fade in the sun? +
Composite doors are stable across temperature extremes โ€” no warping, no swelling, no shrinking. The colour finishes are GRP-bonded and rated for 25+ years of UK weather.
Can I get a matching back door? +
Yes โ€” we typically supply matching front and back doors as a package, often with a small discount for combined installation.
What's the lead time? +
Most doors are surveyed within a week and manufactured in 2โ€“4 weeks. Installation itself takes a single morning.
