In England, a replacement sliding door is a controlled fitting under the Building Regulations.

We arrange compliance through a competent person scheme installer or by notifying Building Control, and you receive the certificate.

Questions about tilt and slide doors in Egham
Is the price different in Egham?
No. Guide prices for tilt and slide doors are the same across mainland Britain, including Egham. The fitted price depends on size, system, glass and finish, and any structural work, all fixed in your written quote after survey.
How wide can a tilt and slide door be?
A tilt and slide door in our range is typically about 1.5 m to 3 m wide overall, with one opening sash and one fixed panel. The sash size is set by the hardware's weight limit, which is lower than for inline or lift and slide systems. If you need a wider opening, a standard aluminium slider or a lift and slide door is the usual alternative.
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.
Are tilt and slide doors draught-proof?
Tilt and slide doors are among the most draught-resistant sliding designs because the closed sash compresses gaskets on all four edges. Thermal performance depends on frame material and glass. In England, a replacement door in an existing home with more than 60% glazing must reach a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K or better, so the glass is specified to meet it. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own requirements.
