Triple glazed sliding patio doors in Thurso
We take enquiries for triple glazed sliding patio doors in Thurso. Because KW14 is a remote or island district, surveys and fitting are by arrangement, with travel costs agreed before you commit.
uPVC and aluminium sliders with low-threshold options. A sliding patio door has large glazed panels that slide past each other on a track, so it opens without swinging into the room.
Winter light and glass choice in Thurso
By midsummer Thurso has about 18 h 22 min of daylight, but in December only around 6 h 17 min, with the noon sun at about 8°. Triple glazing keeps more heat in during those long, dark months; big south and west windows may suit solar-control glass for summer.

Rules for sliding patio doors in Scotland
Scotland sets replacement door limits through the Building Standards Technical Handbook (Domestic), section 6: 1.6 W/m²K. Replacing a door or window, frame and all, does not need a building warrant, but the work must still meet the building standards.
Planning: A replacement door on a house that looks similar to the existing one is generally permitted development; check with your council for flats and conservation areas, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
How it works
We start with a survey, not a sales pitch: measurements, the structure above any bays, trickle-vent needs and escape windows. The quote that follows fixes the price, and anything unexpected on the day is agreed with you first.
- Survey by arrangement, then a written quote fixed for the specification
- Glass build-up and door U-value on every quote
- Written handover pack at the end of the job
- Guarantees on frames, units and fitting in writing
