At the latitude of Woodford Green, the midday sun climbs to about 62° in late June but only about 15° in late December, when daylight lasts around 7 h 48 min against 16 h 40 min in midsummer.

How it works in Woodford Green
Start with a guide price online or by phone. A surveyor then measures your opening in Woodford Green, 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
In England, a replacement sliding door is a controlled fitting under the Building Regulations. In an existing home, a door with more than 60% glazing must reach a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K or better (or a Doorset Energy Rating of band C) under Approved Document L, and glass in doors must be safety glazing under Approved Document K. We arrange compliance through a competent person scheme installer or by notifying Building Control, and you receive the certificate.
