These designs frequently make bold statements while being able to save space. If you live in a home with a balcony or a significant amount of furniture, sliding patio doors can be an ideal solution for you. And with slim sightlines, the window frames don’t interfere with the view.
We don’t believe in cutting corners by bonding the glass on site. Instead our slimline sliding doors are bonded by London Architectural Glass to ensure maximum performance and durability throughout the lifespan of the door.
At Direct Trade, we try to offer the most up to date materials with modern looks. That’s why we choose to use aluminium. Homeowners can choose from multiple panes and multiple tracking systems for ultra wide apertures with sliding patio doors. Create a modern and elegant home with your next installation.
Contact UsThere’s a reason that we use aluminium so often, even when we love the steel looks of our other products. It’s not just that it’s lightweight and easy to use, though that’s important. It’s that aluminium is incredibly weatherproof. It doesn’t stain as wood does, and aluminium sliding patio doors stay colourfast for years to come.
Unlike other materials, it has a high melting point so that it won’t warp. And polyamide thermal breaks mean that it’s thermally ‘broken’ to reduce heat transfer out of your home. Aluminium and polyamide have a lot of the same properties, which is why they work so well together.
Keep in mind that aluminium offers the best U-values on the market, and our slimline sliding doors have U-values of 1.3 W/m2K. And with your sliding patio doors, aluminium offers better energy efficiency. You’ll reduce draughts and dampness in your home when you choose aluminium.

But lowered thresholds are helpful to everyone, considering that they reduce tripping hazards. Raise the home value by complying with government standards and anticipating future needs.
