Tilt and slide patio doors across County Armagh
These are the points a surveyor will go through with you when you choose tilt and slide doors for a home in County Armagh:
Where an old patio door in County Armagh rattles or lets in draughts, a sash that seals on all four edges is a practical fix that keeps the same opening.
A kitchen in County Armagh that steams up while you cook can be aired by tilting the sash, which is quicker than reaching across the worktop to a window.
- When closed, the sash is drawn back into the frame and presses onto gaskets on all four edges, giving a window-like seal against draughts and driving rain.
- Tilting the sash lets steam and cooking smells out of a kitchen-diner in seconds, without the security worry of a door left wide open.
- Made in both uPVC and aluminium, in white, foiled or powder-coated colours, a tilt and slide door can match the windows around it.

Questions about tilt and slide doors in County Armagh
Is the price different in County Armagh?
The door price is the same as anywhere else. Because County Armagh is covered by arrangement, any travel cost for delivery and fitting is shown in your quote before you order; the survey itself is free.
How long does a tilt and slide door take?
A tilt and slide door typically takes 2–4 weeks to make in uPVC and 4–6 weeks in aluminium, from survey sign-off. Fitting typically takes 1 day for a straight swap in an existing opening, including removing the old door and making good. These are typical times rather than fixed promises, and the date is confirmed once the order is placed.
What is a tilt and slide door?
A tilt and slide door is a patio door whose opening sash can either tilt inward at the top for ventilation, or move forward and slide parallel across the fixed panel. The handle selects the mode. When closed, the sash is pulled back into the frame and sealed on all four sides, so it behaves more like a large window than a conventional slider.
How much does a tilt and slide patio door cost?
Tilt and slide patio doors start from a guide price of £1,995 for a 1.5 m two-panel door, fitted, inc VAT, at standard 2.1 m height. A 2.1 m door is a guide £2,395–£2,895, and a 3 m door is around £2,995. Aluminium frames, colour and triple glazing move the figure up, and the final price is fixed in a written quote after survey.
