Sliding doors we fit in Aldershot
Prices are the same across Hampshire; each page explains what to expect in Aldershot.
Daylight in Aldershot and what it means for your glass
Sun angles matter for big glazed doors. Around Aldershot, 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 Aldershot
Every job in the GU11 district follows the same steps: price online, survey, written quote, made-to-measure manufacture and fitting, 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.
Sliding doors in Aldershot: questions
Which sliding door suits a home in Aldershot?
It depends on the opening and budget. uPVC is the lowest-cost option for openings up to about 3.6 m; aluminium gives slimmer frames and wider spans; slimline and lift and slide suit large, high-end openings. The survey in Aldershot is the place to settle it.
Who fits the doors in Aldershot?
Doors are fitted by installers we appoint and manage under our contract, so your contract and guarantees stay with us. The same surveyed specification goes from the quote to the factory to the fitters.
Can you widen my opening in Aldershot?
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.
