Supply-only sliding doors across Northumberland
These are the points a surveyor will go through with you when you choose supply-only sliding doors for a home in Northumberland:
Builders working in Northumberland who already have a trusted fitter can use supply-only to keep installation in-house while still getting made-to-measure doors.
Measuring an opening at a Northumberland property yourself? Take three widths and three heights and use the smallest of each, then follow our tolerance guidance.
- 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.
- 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.
- Builders can schedule delivery to suit the project, avoiding doors sitting on site for weeks before the opening is ready for them.

Daylight and glass in Northumberland
Because Northumberland sees long summer days (about 17 h 25 min) and short winter ones (about 7 h 07 min), the elevation your door faces makes a real difference. With the midday sun at about 11° in winter, a south-facing door brings light well into the room; a west-facing door catches hot late-afternoon sun in summer.
Where we deliver in Northumberland
We deliver supply-only doors to Blyth, Cramlington, Ashington, Bedlington, Alnwick, Berwick-upon-Tweed and the rest of Northumberland.
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 Northumberland
Do you deliver supply-only sliding doors to Northumberland?
Yes. We deliver made-to-measure supply-only doors across Northumberland, with standard delivery to mainland Britain at £95. Deliveries to Northern Ireland and the islands are quoted individually.
Can I fit a sliding door myself?
Fitting a sliding door yourself is possible if you are experienced with joinery and glazing, but large panels are heavy and the frame must be fitted square, level and well sealed for the door to run and drain properly. You also need to deal with Building Regulations compliance. Many people use supply-only with a builder they already trust.
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.
What does supply-only mean?
Supply-only means we manufacture and deliver your made-to-measure sliding door, but we do not fit it. You, your builder or your own installer carry out the installation. The door uses the same frames, glass and hardware as our fitted doors. Supply-only is priced at roughly two thirds of the fitted guide price for the same door, plus delivery.
