FAQs about Our Surface Sliding Door Systems 

We’ve answered commonly asked questions about our surface sliding door kits to help you find a suitable option for your functional and aesthetic needs. 

What are the benefits of sliding doors?

Surface-mounted sliding doors have numerous advantages, including:

• Versatile aesthetics: Panel, glazed, and flush doors cater to a variety of classic and contemporary styles. 

• Space-saving functionality: Since sliding doors use a track mechanism, they don’t require floor area to open and close like hinged doors.  

• Controlled lighting: Glazed options maximise light and maintain privacy. You can also open and close flush and panel doors to adjust the amount of light. 

• Diverse room layouts: Their sliding track makes it easy to connect rooms for an open-plan feel or close them off when needed.  

• Reduced damage: Soft-close mechanisms help prevent door damage. In addition, since sliding doors use a track, you don’t need to worry about them slamming in the wind. 

How to choose the right sliding door for your home?

There are several factors to consider when choosing the ideal sliding door kit, including:

• Size: Larger openings may require double sliding doors, while single sliding doors are better suited to small rooms. You can also have the doors cut to size, depending on your min and max available width requirements. 

• Lighting: Choose glazed options for more light or flush and panel doors to dim your rooms. 

• Fittings: Pull handles are better suited to sliding doors and help ensure smooth operation. Sliding door tracks come in several varieties, including face-mount, face-fix, and top-mounted options. 

• Wall construction: Pocket door systems require a cavity within the wall for the track, whereas surface-mounted doors slide along the wall’s exterior. 

• Style: Flush doors provide a strong, modern look, whereas panel options bring a classic style to your interior.
