A Guide to Patio Doors for Reading Homes
Our years of experience mean we know exactly what sliding doors Reading properties will benefit from most. Below are our suggestions for some of the town’s most common house types.
For Reading’s Modern Apartments & New Builds
Contemporary homes demand contemporary solutions. We recommend our Slimline Sliding Patio Doors for the new developments dotted across Reading. Their minimalist frames, high security, and exceptional weather performance meet the high standards of modern construction, adding value and a premium feel. They are also a superb choice for penthouse apartments with balconies.

For Classic 1930s-50s Family Homes
The suburbs of Reading, from Earley to Tilehurst, are filled with thirties semis. These homes are ideal for extending to create large, family-friendly kitchen-diners. For these projects, our Ultra Slim Slide and Turn Doors are a perfect choice, allowing a wide three or four-panel set to completely disappear, merging the new kitchen with the garden.

For Reading’s Period and Victorian Properties
To preserve the character of a Victorian or Edwardian home in areas like West Reading, careful product selection is key. Our Ultra Slim Slide and Turn Doors can be specified with integral Georgian bars, providing a heritage look with all the benefits of modern aluminium. This makes them the ideal choice for creating a new opening in a period property.

Frequently Asked Questions: Reading Sliding Doors
Do install sliding doors Reading wide?
Yes, our service area is extensive. While we install many patio doors in Reading (covering all RG postcodes), our teams also install patio doors in Oxfordshire, across Berkshire, and other counties across most of South England and the Midlands. We are a popular choice for homeowners needing sliding doors in Bracknell and Newbury too.
How much do aluminium sliding doors in Reading cost?
The price varies based on the product, size, configuration, and colour. We believe in transparent pricing, which is why we offer a free, no-obligation survey and quote tailored to your exact requirements.
I’m building a garden room, are sliding doors in Reading a good choice for it?
Yes, our sliding doors are an excellent choice for garden rooms, home offices, and summer houses. The Ultra Slim Slide and Turn Doors are particularly popular as they can completely open up one side of the building on warm days.
Are your doors energy efficient?
Yes, very. Both systems use thermally broken aluminium profiles and high-performance double or triple glazing to achieve excellent U-values. Replacing old, draughty patio doors will make a noticeable difference to your home’s warmth and energy consumption.
Can I get integrated blinds with my Reading sliding doors?
Yes, our Ultra Slim Slide and Turn Doors are available with integrated blinds. These are sealed between the panes of glass, meaning they never get dusty or damaged, and offer a very neat way to control light and privacy.
Can the slide and turn doors be used inside the home?
Yes, and many customers do. The Ultra Slim Slide and Turn Doors are an excellent option for internal room dividers, for example, to separate a living area from a conservatory or dining room. We can supply them in the same style as your external patio doors for a consistent look.
Are there options for a flush floor level?
Yes, both of our systems are available with a low or completely flush threshold. This creates a barrier-free, level boundary between your indoor and outdoor space, which is great for accessibility and creates a clean, modern look.
I’m worried about security. How safe are your doors?
Your security is our priority. All our doors are designed to be highly secure, featuring multi-point locking systems, anti-lift blocks, and internally beaded glass as standard. You can be confident that your home is well-protected.
