Are supply-only sliding doors right for homes in County Antrim?
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:
If your County Antrim property is on a narrow street or has no parking outside, tell us before delivery so a sensible drop-off point can be agreed.
Measuring an opening at a County Antrim property yourself? Take three widths and three heights and use the smallest of each, then follow our tolerance guidance.
- Builders can schedule delivery to suit the project, avoiding doors sitting on site for weeks before the opening is ready for them.
- Supply-only costs roughly two thirds of the fitted guide price for the same door, which can make sense when you already have a capable fitter on site.
- Booking one of our surveys transfers the responsibility for measuring to us, which is a sensible option if you are unsure about sizes or tolerances.

Questions about supply-only sliding doors in County Antrim
Can you measure for a supply-only order in County Antrim?
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.
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.
How heavy are supply-only sliding door panels?
Sliding door panels with double glazed safety glass are heavy, and large panels can weigh well over the safe limit for one person to lift, especially with triple glazing. Plan for enough people on site to unload, carry and position each panel, and keep the route from the delivery point to the opening clear and level.
Do you deliver to Northern Ireland and the islands?
Yes, we can deliver supply-only doors to Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Wight and the Isles of Scilly by arrangement. Delivery to these areas is quoted individually because it depends on the route and the size of the consignment. Tell us the full delivery address when you ask for a quote so we can price it.
