Project Overview
A contemporary new build extension in Milton Keynes required a high-end glazing solution to achieve its architectural vision. The open-plan kitchen and living area was designed around floor-to-ceiling glass to connect seamlessly with the rear garden. The goal was to install a premium Schüco sliding door system alongside matching windows to maximise natural light, deliver exceptional thermal performance, and create a true indoor-outdoor living experience.
Our Solution
We supplied and installed Schüco ASS 70 sliding doors and Schüco AWS 70 windows throughout the new extension. The solution included:
- Three-panel Schüco ASS 70 sliding door with one fixed panel and two sliding panels
- Slim aluminium sightlines for uninterrupted garden views
- Thermally broken profiles exceeding building regulations
- Low-threshold track for step-free garden access
- High-security multi-point locking with finger-safe interlock
- Matching Schüco AWS 70 windows with side-hung casement openings
- Powder-coated finish in dark grey (RAL 7016) to complement the extension’s exterior cladding
- Double glazing with low-E coating and argon gas fill
Installation Process
- Coordinated with extension build timeline and verified all rough openings
- Installed reinforced steel lintels above sliding door opening
- Lifted Schüco ASS 70 sliding door frame into position using precision packers
- Mechanically fixed frames to new masonry and timber studwork
- Hung sliding door panels and adjusted rollers for smooth, quiet operation
- Installed Schüco AWS 70 window frames to side elevations
- Spray-foamed all perimeter gaps with high-expansion insulation foam
- Applied internal and external silicone seals for airtight weatherproofing
- Installed double-glazed units into all windows and door panels
- Adjusted all rollers, locks, hinges, and handles for perfect operation
- Completed thorough clean of all glass, frames, and tracks
