Working in Stevenage

Stevenage's New Town status produced large-volume 1950s-1970s housing estates alongside the medieval Old Town conservation area across SG1-SG2. High-volume residential re-glazing on the new town estates and selective heritage work in the Old Town feature in our Hertfordshire workload.

For doors and glass extensions in Stevenage, residential property style typically drives the design brief across East — 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 SG1 and SG2 postcodes. Typical lead time from survey to install: 4-6 weeks for standard configurations, 8-10 weeks for bespoke or large-span builds.

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.
