There are so many ways to make your home unique – from the architecture and room layout through to the living space decor. However, the type of sliding door you choose is also an expression of your identity and personal style. Be it a newbuild or renovation project, design always plays a key role.

Anyone opting for a flush floor to ceiling sliding door right now is making a good choice: sliding doors flood rooms with natural light and provide an almost barrier-free transition from inside to outside.

Narrow profiles with no obtrusive door frames offer the best possible views to the outside. If you're looking for light and airy rooms, then you are going to love the large-scale glass areas and wide opening widths that only sliding doors can achieve. And while we are on the subject of space: the interior also benefits, as conventional pivoting door leaves that take up space in the room are a thing of the past.

Modern sliding doors are also very energy-efficient, both in summer and winter, keeping the heat and the cold out. The design of these ultra-slim doors or windows involves the glass acting as a key structural component, also known as structurally bonded. As a result, and unlike regular windows and doors, glass is the primary structural component. In standard framed doors, it’s secondary as the thicker frames also provide strength and structural integrity.

Increasingly popular in residential building projects, a flush threshold detail is the must-have component. However, it’s important to plan the flush door threshold detail in the early stages of the overall design to ensure a truly seamless experience.
