Project Overview
A ground-floor flat in Hammersmith had an old timber patio door that was draughty, difficult to operate, and poorly insulated. The existing door also had a failed locking mechanism, raising security concerns for the residents. The goal was to install a modern, secure, and energy-efficient uPVC patio door that would provide easy garden access and improve the flat’s thermal performance.
Our Solution
We supplied and installed a high-performance white uPVC patio door tailored to the property’s needs. The solution included:
- White uPVC patio door with slimline sills for easy garden access
- A-rated double glazing with argon gas fill for superior thermal efficiency
- Multi-point locking system with anti-snap cylinders and security handles
- Low-maintenance uPVC profiles that will not warp, yellow, or crack
- Reinforced frames for added strength and durability
- Concealed roller system for smooth, quiet operation
- Integral fly screen option for summer ventilation
Installation Process
- Conducted precise laser measurement of the existing door opening
- Removed old wooden patio door carefully
- Disposed of all waste materials responsibly
- Inspected and prepared the structural opening, lintel, and sub-cill
- Installed new uPVC patio door frame using galvanised fixings and expanding foam
- Fitted the patio door panels onto the roller mechanism
- Tested smooth operation and adjusted rollers as needed
- Installed double-glazed sealed units into both fixed and panels
- Applied internal and external silicone seals for full weatherproofing
- Tested multi-point locking mechanism and all security features
- Completed thorough clean of glass, frames, tracks, and surrounding area
