What aluminium sliding doors offer homes in Tenby
Here is what to weigh up if you are considering aluminium sliding doors for a home in Tenby:
For a south- or west-facing garden in Tenby, solar-control glass in the sliding panels can keep a glazed room more comfortable on summer afternoons.
Thinking about a dark frame for a house in Tenby? Anthracite grey and black powder coats show off slim aluminium sightlines, and dual colour keeps the inside lighter if you prefer.
- Because the panels slide rather than swing, nothing opens into the room or across the patio, leaving space for a dining table, sofa or planters right up to the glass.
- Polyester powder coating is baked onto the aluminium in the factory, giving a hard, even colour that resists fading and chalking and does not need repainting in normal use.
- A polyamide thermal break inside every profile separates the cold outer metal from the warm inner face, cutting heat loss and reducing the risk of condensation forming on the frame.
Sunlight, glass and orientation in Tenby
Because Tenby sees long summer days (about 16 h 40 min) and short winter ones (about 7 h 48 min), the elevation your door faces makes a real difference. With the midday sun at about 15° in winter, a south-facing door brings light well into the room; a west-facing door catches hot late-afternoon sun in summer.

What happens when you order aluminium sliding doors in Tenby?
A surveyor visits your Tenby home to measure the structural opening, check levels and the lintel, and talk through glass and finish. Once you confirm the written specification, the door is made to measure — typically 4–6 weeks from survey sign-off — and fitting usually takes 1 day for a two-panel straight swap; 1–2 days for larger doors. We also cover Pembroke Dock (16 km west) and Milford Haven (23 km west).
Do you need approval in Tenby?
Wales sets its own Building Regulations guidance, including Approved Document L (Wales) for energy. A replacement sliding door must meet those requirements and use safety glass, and we arrange compliance through a registered installer or the local Building Control service.
Which options matter for aluminium sliding doors?
- Handles and locks. Slim pull handles or lever handles in matching or contrasting finishes, with an enhanced security locking pack available.
- Threshold. A standard or low threshold, or a flush finish with a drainage channel outside where floor levels allow.
- Colours. Standard shades such as anthracite grey, black and white, or a special RAL colour for an extra charge.
Questions about aluminium sliding doors in Tenby
Do you fit aluminium sliding doors in Tenby?
Yes. We survey and fit aluminium sliding doors in Tenby and across Dyfed, including nearby Pembroke Dock and Milford Haven. Start with a guide price online or call us, and we will arrange a free survey for a new or replacement door.
How do you look after aluminium sliding doors?
Aluminium sliding doors need little care: wash the frames with mild soapy water a few times a year, vacuum grit out of the bottom track and keep the drainage slots clear. A light silicone spray on the locking points once a year keeps them smooth, and rollers can be adjusted if a panel starts to drag. Manufacturer guarantees on frames, hardware and sealed units are passed to you, and our workmanship guarantee is set out in writing in your quote.
How much do aluminium sliding doors cost?
Aluminium sliding doors start from a guide price of £3,295 for a 1.5 m two-panel door, fitted, inc VAT, at standard 2.1 m height. A 2.4 m door is a guide £4,295–£5,295, and a 4.8 m four-panel door is around £6,995. Glass, colour and threshold choices move the price within the range, and the final figure is fixed in a written quote after survey.
How wide can an aluminium sliding door be?
An aluminium sliding door in our range can span from about 1.5 m to 6 m, split into two to four panels. Each panel is usually up to about 2.5–3 m wide depending on the system and the weight of the glass. Wider openings take more panels, and beyond about 6 m a multi-track or lift and slide system is usually the more practical choice.
