Working in Lisburn

Lisburn's Georgian Market Square heritage and modern commuter housing give us mixed workloads across BT27-BT28. Listed-building consents in the cathedral quarter sit alongside large-volume residential re-glazing on the surrounding new-build estates.

For doors and glass extensions in Lisburn, residential property style typically drives the design brief across Northern Ireland — whether that's contemporary aluminium bifolds spanning a garden-facing rear elevation, slim-frame sliding doors that maximise glass area on a modern extension, or heritage French doors fitted to a period façade. Most commonly we're working across BT27 and BT28 postcodes. Typical lead time from survey to install: 4-6 weeks for standard configurations, 8-10 weeks for bespoke or large-span builds.

Sliding doors with 200kg+ panels require precision installation, level thresholds and structural lintels above. Our team has 10+ years specialist experience.

FAQs

Common questions

Bifolds open more of the wall (up to 90%) but stack as panels at the side. Sliders give 50% maximum opening but offer the slimmest sightlines and largest single panes when closed. Sliders are better for views; bifolds for full opening.
Large sliding panels can weigh 200-400kg. Lift-and-slide mechanisms lift the panel off the seal slightly for friction-free movement — making a 400kg door feel as light as 20kg.
Yes — once unlocked and lifted off the seal, they slide freely and can be parked open. The lift mechanism re-engages when you slide back to the closed position.
