Are supply-only sliding doors right for homes in Cambridgeshire?
A few practical points decide whether supply-only sliding doors suit a particular room and opening:
Not confident about sizes for your Cambridgeshire project? Booking a survey moves the responsibility for measuring to us before anything is made.
Builders working in Cambridgeshire who already have a trusted fitter can use supply-only to keep installation in-house while still getting made-to-measure doors.
- 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.
- Clear measuring guidance and tolerances are provided before you order, helping you give dimensions the factory can build to accurately.

Daylight and glass in Cambridgeshire
At the latitude of Cambridgeshire, the midday sun climbs to about 61° in late June but only about 14° in late December, when daylight lasts around 7 h 40 min against 16 h 49 min in midsummer. A south-facing supply-only sliding door lets that low winter sun deep into the room; on a west or south elevation, solar-control glass keeps summer afternoons comfortable.

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 Cambridgeshire
Do you deliver supply-only sliding doors to Cambridgeshire?
Yes. We deliver made-to-measure supply-only doors across Cambridgeshire, with standard delivery to mainland Britain at £95. Deliveries to Northern Ireland and the islands are quoted individually.
Can I cancel a supply-only order?
Supply-only doors are made to your specification, so under regulation 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 they are excluded from the usual 14-day cancellation right once ordered. For that reason we order nothing until you confirm the specification in writing. Your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, for example if goods are faulty, are unaffected.
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.
