What Are The Benefits of Lift and Slide Doors?

Aesthetic Appeal

Our timber lift and slide doors can pull together your home, creating a seamless join between your outside and inside spaces. The glass-to-frame ratio of the doors lets in more natural light and gives you less interrupted views, making your home feel larger and more open. With only a 6 to 8 week turnaround, your improved space is just around the corner.

Our doors are bespoke designed and crafted by our team of highly skilled professionals, so you can choose the right finish to enhance your space.

Ease of Use

Lift and slide doors are easier to use than regular sliding doors, as they use a mechanism that lifts the door before you slide it open, which means it is physically easier for you to open as they feel less heavy. The doors also slide more smoothly than regular sliding doors, meaning there is less friction and wear, making it a better option in the long term. With our option to both supply and fit, or just supply, the process of changing your doors is also easier for you from the start of the process until the end.

Improved Security

We fit our lift and slide doors with high-quality locks and deadbolts to keep your family protected through the enhanced safety of our doors. We have designed our doors to meet police preferred standards, so you have the extra peace of mind knowing that our doors are certified to these higher specifications.

We also hold the following safety certificates, so you can have peace of mind knowing your doors are as safe as possible:

  • PAS 24: 2016 Certified: our products are tested to resist a certain level of attack and show good security performance.
  • Part Q approved: our products meet security standards set to prevent unauthorised access.

Increase Property Value

Our doors are a great option for everyone, whether you are in your forever home or you plan on moving in the future, as our doors may help increase your property value. They are an added luxury that may appeal to potential buyers, with their elegant look and ease of use being something the next homeowner would appreciate having. Our safety certifications will also appeal to them, as they give the occupants an extra feeling of security in their home, which most people would pay a bit more for.

Versatility

Our doors can be configured in nearly any way to meet the requirements of your space, complementing it and fulfilling the vision you have for your home. Our doors are bespoke designs, with everything crafted by expert joiners, so we will be able to make our doors work exactly how you want and need them to.

Energy Efficiency

We can offer you a variety of advanced glazing options, giving you even more customisation on your perfect lift and slide doors. We offer double glazing, triple glazing and vacuum glazing, so we can pick the right option to enhance the energy efficiency of your home. Our Lignum lift and slide doors achieve a U-value of 1.2 W/m²K with double glazing, 0.9 W/m²K with triple glazing, and 0.7 W/m²K with vacuum glazing, where a lower figure means better insulation. The exact value depends on the size and configuration of your doors.

The frames we use are also insulated to further reduce heat transfer.

In the long run, this means you will spend less money heating your home, as you will not be losing heat through our doors.

We are ISO 50001 and ISO 14001 certified, showing that we are addressing our energy impact in order to be more sustainable and reduce our environmental impact through efficient energy management. When you buy through us, you are supporting us in our progress to meet our energy goals. This is further backed up by our FENSA certification, which shows our work is energy efficient.
