Are supply-only sliding doors right for homes in Berkshire?
The right door depends on the opening, the room and the way you use the garden. Here is how supply-only sliding doors tend to work out in practice:
Ordering supply-only doors for a Berkshire build? Time the delivery for when the opening is ready, so the panels are not stored on site and at risk of damage.
Not confident about sizes for your Berkshire project? Booking a survey moves the responsibility for measuring to us before anything is made.
- Delivery to mainland Britain is a standard £95, with Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Wight and the Isles of Scilly by arrangement.
- Builders can schedule delivery to suit the project, avoiding doors sitting on site for weeks before the opening is ready for them.
- Manufacturer guarantees on frames, hardware and sealed units are passed to you, and the supply terms are set out in writing in your quote.

Daylight and glass in Berkshire
Because Berkshire sees long summer days (about 16 h 37 min) and short winter ones (about 7 h 50 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.

Who handles approvals?
If you buy supply only, whoever fits the door is responsible for Building Regulations compliance and safety glazing. In England a replacement door is a controlled fitting, so compliance is arranged through a competent person scheme installer or Building Control; new openings need a Building Regulations application.
Questions about supply-only sliding doors in Berkshire
Can you measure for a supply-only order in Berkshire?
Yes, if you would like us to. Any charge for a supply-only survey is confirmed when you book; otherwise you give us the sizes, and you are responsible for them.
How much is delivery for supply-only doors?
Standard delivery for supply-only sliding doors is £95 to addresses in mainland Britain. Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Wight and the Isles of Scilly are by arrangement, with the cost quoted individually. Delivery details, such as the date and any access restrictions at your address, are agreed before the door is dispatched.
Do supply-only doors need building regulations sign-off?
Yes, in England a replacement door is a controlled fitting, so whoever installs it must either be registered with a competent person scheme and self-certify the work, or notify Building Control. With supply-only, that responsibility sits with your fitter, not with us. The door must also meet the energy and safety glazing requirements, which we confirm in the specification.
Who is responsible for measuring a supply-only door?
For supply-only orders you are responsible for measuring the opening and giving us the sizes, unless you book one of our surveys. We provide measuring guidance and tolerances, and confirm the sizes back to you in writing before ordering. If you book a survey, our surveyor measures and the responsibility for the sizes then sits with us.
