Sliding Patio Doors
Sliding patio doors are an affordable, long-term upgrade that connects your home to your garden, balcony or conservatory. Sliding open on a track, patio doors smoothly glide one behind the other, making them a popular and space-saving alternative to bi-fold designs.
Our uPVC patio doors are double-glazed, remain a popular material for those on a budget and come with a Yale 3-star cylinder lock as standard. Browse our wide range of colours, handles and decorative glass effects to find your perfect patio doors.
Our Patio Door Designs
Two-part or horizontal bar
Sliding patio doors are the perfect partner for renovation projects where space is a little tight. Our popular two-part sliding glass doors slide left or right, and if you opt for uPVC sliding doors, you can choose our horizontal bar design too.
Three-part patio door
Step out into the garden in style from your kitchen, living room, extension, conservatory or even onto a balcony. With one or two fixed doors and one that slides behind the third pane, our three-part sliding doors slide either left or right.
Four-part sliding door
Flood your home with natural light from large sliding patio doors. A space-saving alternative to bifold doors, our four-part external sliding doors have two central doors which slide behind the two fixed side doors.

Patio Door FAQs
What’s the difference between a French door and a patio door?
A French door opens on hinges that usually swing outwards, whereas patio doors are a type of door that slides open and close on tracks. Other than opening differently, these two types of door can suit different homes – French doors can often be better suited to more traditional style homes, while a sliding patio door usually can look more contemporary.
What should I look for when buying a sliding patio door?
Make sure you know what the dimensions of your current doors are, as this will have the biggest impact on cost. It’s also worth thinking about what style you’d like, whether that’s French doors or sliding patio doors, both to suit the style of your home as well as work practically with your space. The material of the door will also have a big effect on the cost and energy efficiency, with uPVC generally providing excellent efficiency at a more affordable price.
Do sliding glass doors increase home value?
While this will always depend on the house and its many other factors, having patio doors that lead outside to a garden or terrace can be a very desirable feature for homeowners. Patio doors bring in light and warmth year-round, and add a beautiful transition between indoors and outdoors for the warmer months.
Are sliding patio doors or French doors more energy-efficient?
Sliding patio doors and French doors are made with double-glazing window panes as standard. While our French doors are available with an upgrade to triple glazing to make them more energy-efficient, our sliding patio doors overlap. This overlapping design generally makes them more energy-efficient by creating a tighter seal, whereas French doors have a seal around each of the two doors.
Are sliding patio doors expensive?
Anglian sliding patio doors are priced individually based on the size, design and specification required for your home. If you are replacing sliding patio doors on a budget, it's easy to spread the cost with our low-rate finance plan, from just a £199 deposit.
How long do sliding doors last?
With regular light cleaning of both the doors and sliding mechanism, sliding patio doors can last several decades. If you buy yours from Anglian, the first 10-years are covered by our insurance-backed guarantee as standard, as well as an extra 15-year sealed unit guarantee for the glass.
Which are better, bifolds or sliding patio doors?
Both bifold and sliding patio doors make a practical and stylish door to open onto your outdoor area. While bifold doors are known for their fold-away concertina design, sliding patio doors don’t take up any extra internal or external space, as the doors slide neatly behind one another.
