Sliding doors we fit in Barnes
Prices are the same across Greater London; each page explains what to expect in Barnes.
How much sun will a door in Barnes get?
Sun angles matter for big glazed doors. Around Barnes, midday sun reaches about 62° in summer and drops to about 15° in winter. That low winter sun is free heat through south-facing glass; high summer sun is easier to shade with a roof overhang, and solar-control glass helps where there is none.
From guide price to fitted door in Barnes
Start with a guide price online or by phone. A surveyor then measures your opening in Barnes, checks levels and the lintel, and you receive a fixed written quote. After you approve it, the door is made to measure and fitted, with the compliance certificate sent to you.
Approvals in England
English Building Regulations treat a new or replacement external door in an existing home as a controlled fitting: it needs a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K or better (or Doorset Energy Rating band C) if more than 60% of it is glazed (Approved Document L), and safety glass in a critical location (Approved Document K). Compliance is arranged through a competent person scheme installer or a Building Control notification, so you get a certificate for your records.
Sliding doors in Barnes: questions

Can you widen my opening in Barnes?
Yes. We can form or widen an opening for a larger sliding door, with structural calculations, a steel beam and English approvals arranged. That work is quoted alongside the door.

Guide prices are the same across mainland Britain. A 2.4 m wide aluminium door is a guide £4,295–£5,295, fitted, including VAT; uPVC starts from £1,695. Your exact price is fixed after survey.
