Low threshold Sliding Doors and Patio Doors

Low threshold Sliding Doors and patio doors are designed to create a smoother transition between inside and outside. This is especially useful for family homes, accessible living, garden access and projects where the floor finish is planned carefully from the start.

A low threshold can help reduce the step between the room and the patio, terrace or balcony.

Idealcombi low threshold Sliding Doors are designed for seamless integration with internal and external flooring. They use smooth roller operation, secure locking points and a carefully sealed design to help the door feel easy to use while supporting comfort throughout the year.

The maximum clear opening is 1,522 mm, with an overall maximum height of 2,600 mm and width of 3,350 mm. The fixed pane is always supplied as triple-glazed to improve thermal performance, achieving U-values as low as 0.91 W/m²K for triple glazing and 1.18 W/m²K for double glazing.


PureView Sliding Doors

The PureView Sliding Door is engineered to maximise your view with minimal visual obstruction. Its exclusive design showcases an ultra-slim 20 mm frame, providing expansive, unobstructed vistas and flooding interiors with natural light. 

The stainless-steel track system supports large panel sizes—up to 4.2 meters in width and 3.2 meters in height, with a maximum area of 9 square meters per panel—combining style with robust performance. For architectural consistency, large fixed windows with matching profiles are also available.

The door features a 75mm bottom frame that can be recessed to align seamlessly with internal and external floor levels, ensuring a flush transition. An electric locking system integrated into the head frame, along with a concealed handle, maintains the door’s sleek and symmetrical appearance.

Sliding Door FAQs

Why choose sliding doors?

Sliding doors are a great choice if you want more daylight, better views and easy access to your garden, patio or terrace without needing space for door leaves to swing open. Idealcombi sliding doors are designed with large glass areas, smooth operation and slim frame options, helping your home feel brighter and more connected to the outside.

For a minimal look, PureView Sliding Doors have an ultra slim 20 mm visible frame and can support large panels up to 4.2 metres wide and 3.2 metres high, with a maximum area of 9 square metres per panel. For projects where easy access is important, Idealcombi Low Threshold Sliding Doors can be embedded into internal and external flooring for a smoother transition.

Do sliding doors provide noise reduction?

Yes, sliding doors can help reduce outside noise when they are specified with the right acoustic glazing. The level of sound reduction depends on the glass thickness, the distance between panes, laminated glass interlayers and the overall glazing specification.

As a guide, our standard Futura+ triple glazed unit may reduce noise by about 36 dB, while an acoustically focused triple glazed unit can achieve approximately 43 dB. A standard double glazed unit may reduce noise by about 35 dB, while an acoustically focused double glazed unit can achieve around 44 dB.

What are the benefits of aluminium sliding doors?

Aluminium sliding doors offer strength, durability, slim sightlines and low maintenance. The strength of aluminium allows for narrower frame profiles, which means more glass, more daylight and a cleaner view.

Idealcombi sliding doors use aluminium externally for weather protection and durability, with systems designed to coordinate with our windows. The Push Out Sliding Door has sleek 53 mm sightlines that align with the Futura+ and Futura+i window systems, helping create a consistent look across the property. Aluminium also helps support larger glass areas, as seen with PureView Sliding Doors, which can carry panels up to 9 square metres.

What is a lift and slide sliding door?

A lift and slide sliding door uses a handle operated mechanism that lifts the sliding panel slightly off its seals before it moves. This makes large, heavy glass panels easier to slide. When the door is closed, the panel lowers back onto the seals to help improve weather tightness, insulation and security.

This type of mechanism is often chosen for larger patio doors because it combines smooth movement with a tight seal when closed. We also offer sliding door systems with double rollers, multiple locking points and pull to close operation to support smooth movement, security and airtightness.

What are sliding patio doors?

In most cases, replacing existing patio doors with similar sliding patio doors does not require planning permission. However, planning rules can apply if your home is listed, in a conservation area, part of a flat, or if the project changes the size, structure or appearance of the opening.

You should always check with your local planning authority, architect or project professional before ordering, especially for larger openings, heritage properties or major renovation work.

What is the thermal performance of sliding patio doors?

The fixed pane in the Low Threshold Sliding Door is always supplied as triple glazed to improve thermal performance. The system also uses multiple locking points and a pull to close design to create a secure and airtight seal, helping reduce heat loss and improve comfort.

For double Low Threshold Sliding Doors, the U value is also 0.91 W/m²K with triple glazing in the sliding part and 1.18 W/m²K with double glazing in the sliding part.

How secure are sliding patio doors?

Security details include strong catches, hook bolts, mushroom bolts, adjustable keeps, three locking points on doors and glued panes that make it much harder to remove the glass from the sash.
