Patio doors in uPVC & Aluminium

The popularity of sliding patio doors dates all the way back to Roman times. While digging in and around the site of Pompeii, a Roman metropolis preserved almost perfectly after Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79CE, archaeologists found evidence of ancient patio doors that they believe were used to divide rooms.

Across the world, the Japanese also use sliding doors, or Shoji, to divide rooms within their homes. Dating back to the Kamakura Period (1192 – 1333), Shoji use washi paper instead of glass which allows for warm, natural light and airflow. This classic feature of Japanese architecture has become synonymous with the country’s culture. It is widely believed that this style of sliding door came from Japan to the UK following World War II.

Your patio doors will be engineered with your choice of uPVC or aluminium, weatherproof seals and innovative double glazing, not only insulating your property from the effects of adverse weather but also sealing your living spaces from noise pollution.

If you live near an area with high amounts of foot traffic or road-noise, refurbishing your windows and doors will dramatically lower exterior sounds.

For additional insulation, you might also want to consider installing acoustic glass.

For the modern homeowner, retaining high levels of security when it comes to private properties is of the utmost priority. Majestic Designs engineers our range of uPVC and aluminium patio doors with safety in mind,

By default, our patio doors are manufactured with secure multi-point locking mechanisms across our range. Engineered with innovative double glazing technology and thermal seals, you can rest assured your patio doors will keep your home safe and secure.

White is one of the most popular colours here at Majestic Designs. It’s not hard to see why – timeless and elegant, white suits both contemporary and traditional properties alike regardless of style or age. Contrary to popular belief however, your patio doors whether they are engineered from uPVC or aluminium, don’t have to be white.

Majestic Designs will always strive to meet our customers’ expectations, and as a result we offer a variety of different colours and styles across our range of patio doors. For a bold, bright aesthetic oozing charm and rolling countryside, you might opt for a Chartwell Green or Irish Oak. For a modern, contemporary look you could stick with classic White Woodgrain or Cream, but for something a little more ‘out there’ you might choose French Grey or even Black. At the end of the day, the colour and style of your patio doors will depend entirely on the aesthetics of your property and your own personal taste.

If you decide to install a new patio door, you might like to consider refurbishing the windows and doors throughout the rest of your property. Windows in particular can transform your home by maximising natural light and insulating your living spaces with innovative energy-efficient technology.

Majestic Designs are proud to deliver an A+14 rating on the WER (Window Energy Rating) scale across our range of aluminium and uPVC windows. We also offer a 10-year guarantee.

uPVC windows

uPVC is a popular material for use in window fabrication. With a long life spanning at least two decades, our uPVC windows are available in a variety of different colours and styles. Engineered for optimal energy efficiency and security, you can rest assured whatever style of window you choose will be manufactured with durability and strength in mind.

Aluminium windows

Much like uPVC, aluminium is a popular material renowned for its strength and resilience in commercial and private properties alike. Offering a long, low maintenance lifespan of 30 – 40 years and optimal energy efficiency ratings, aluminium windows are suitable in both contemporary and traditional homes, and can transform your living spaces with minimalist, clean lines, expansive panes of double-glazed glass and natural light.

Different styles of windows

Majestic Designs offers both uPVC and aluminium windows in a range of different styles and colours. Whatever your personal taste, we have windows to suit any property.

Casement windows

An enduring, popular choice on the market for homeowners across the UK, traditional casement windows deliver optimal energy-efficiency ratings and security as well as improved ventilation. Operating on your choice of a vertical or horizontal hinge, casement windows are a versatile and practical style of window on the market – this is exemplified in their enduring popularity with homeowners both here in Great Britain and abroad.

Flush casement windows

Similar to traditional casement windows, flush casement windows sit ‘flush’ in the window frame. Flush casement windows can be installed separately as standalone windows, or in bay and bow windows. Classic with a twist, flush casement windows give your home a contemporary flourish and are suitable in both contemporary and traditional properties alike.

Sash windows

Combining traditional aesthetics with modern convenience has never been so simple. uPVC vertical sliding sash windows combine classic style with optimal energy-efficient ratings, modern insulation and heightened security. As a result, they are suited to historically sensitive restoration projects and make an excellent replacement for old timber windows. Retain the historical charm of your traditional home or add an elegant flair to your contemporary property.

Bay windows

Majestic Designs offers a range of bay windows that can elevate your home with traditional elegance reminiscent of Victorian Britain. Ideal for maximising space and natural light within your home, bay windows are square in shape and feature your choice of fixed or operating casement windows.

Bow windows

Majestic Designs offers a range of bow windows, as an alternative to traditional bay windows. Also known as a compass style window, bow windows are sleek in shape and style, effortlessly complementing both traditional and contemporary properties alike regardless of age or aesthetic.

Tilt and Turn windows

Combining a simple yet practical operation and visually appealing style, tilt and turn windows deliver innovative dual-opening technology to contemporary and traditional properties alike. Tilt and turn windows open two ways with a single, easy-to-use handle and are ideal for maximising ventilation in your home while still retaining optimal levels of energy efficiency.
