If the windows on your Bangor (Gwynedd) home are white or woodgrain uPVC, uPVC sliding patio doors in a matching finish keep the rear of the house looking uniform.
- As the least expensive sliding door material, uPVC lets you replace a draughty older patio door with modern double glazing on a modest budget.
- Steel reinforcement inside the main profiles keeps the frame rigid, holds the locking hardware firmly and stops the sliding panel flexing over the years.
- Shoot-bolt or hook locking on the sliding panel, plus anti-lift devices, help stop the panel being lifted or levered out of the frame from outside.

Questions about uPVC sliding patio doors in Bangor (Gwynedd)
Is the price different in Bangor (Gwynedd)?
No. Guide prices for uPVC sliding patio doors are the same across mainland Britain, including Bangor (Gwynedd). The fitted price depends on size, system, glass and finish, and any structural work, all fixed in your written quote after survey.
How much do uPVC sliding patio doors cost?
uPVC sliding patio doors start from a guide price of £1,695 for a 1.5 m two-panel door, fitted, inc VAT, at standard 2.1 m height. A 2.4 m door is a guide £2,195–£2,695, and a 3.6 m three-panel door is around £2,895. Coloured foils, glass upgrades and a low threshold move the figure up, and the final price is fixed in a written quote after survey.
How quickly can a uPVC patio door be fitted?
A uPVC sliding patio door is typically made in 2–4 weeks after you sign off the surveyed specification, the shortest lead time of the sliding door materials. A straight swap in the same opening typically takes 1 day, including removing the old door, fitting, sealing and making good inside. Times are typical rather than promised, and foiled colours can add a little time.
What sizes do uPVC sliding doors come in?
uPVC sliding doors are made to measure, so they come in any size within the system limits rather than set sizes. Our uPVC range covers overall widths from about 1.5 m to 3.6 m at standard 2.1 m height. Two panels cover most openings up to about 3 m, and beyond that a third panel is added. For larger openings, aluminium carries bigger panels.
