Quick-Glide Features
Panels Slide & Fold Independently
One of the key benefits of the Quick-Glide door is its flexibility. Open a single panel and slide the rest across to create a versatile opening. Unlike the traditional bifold doors that opens in a singular, concertina fashion, the panels of the Quick-Glide door can be moved one by one. Not only do the door panels slide independently, but they can also be opened separately for easy access outside.
Hingeless System
With no visible hinges or hardware when closed – other than a simple handle on the main door – makes Quick-Glide as sleek and stylish as it is flexible. When closed, the slim profile and minimal hardware gives a contemporary finish, flooding a room with natural light and making it feel spacious and bright.
Square Sashes
Square door sashes provide a sleek and contemporary look that complements modern homes. The ‘sharp’ edges and clean corners of square door sashes create a visually striking appearance, adding sophistication to the door design. This can help elevate the look of residential properties.
High Security Cylinder & Multi-point Locking System
The high security cylinder we use is designed to withstand various burglary techniques, such as drilling, picking, or bumping. It offers greater resistance to forced entry attempts, providing peace of mind for homeowners. The multi-point locking system engages multiple locking points along the main traffic door, making it significantly more difficult for intruders to force entry.
Polyamide Thermal Break Aluminium
Manufactured using high quality aluminium and finished to the highest standards, Quick-Glide is the latest design to hit the market. The polyamide thermal break interrupts the flow of heat through the aluminium, reducing heat transfer and enhancing energy efficiency. This helps in maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures and reducing heating or cooling costs.
Slim Profile
Slim profiles mean more glass area, allowing for unobstructed views of the outdoor space. This creates a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor areas, enhancing a home sense of space and connection to the outdoors. Additionally, the slim aluminium profiles used in the manufacture of Quick-Glide provide a sleek and modern look, contributing to the overall aesthetics of a property.
“Tap in” Quick Bead
The “Tap in” Quick Bead system simplifies the installation process of our Quick-Glide doors by providing a quick and easy method to secure the glass into the door panel. It eliminates the need for complex installation procedures, saving time and effort. The tap in bead is an installer’s dream!
Flush Trickle Vent
Flush trickle vents integrate seamlessly into the door sash, providing a cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing appearance compared to trickle vents that protrude from the frame or frame extender. This can be particularly important for modern or minimalist homes where visual clutter needs to be reduced.
Each flush trickle vent provides airflow of 2057EA.

Glazing Options
Double Glazing
The Quick-Glide door comes with efficient 28mm double glazing as standard. Double glazing consists of two panes of glass separated by a spacer filled with insulating argon gas. This composition significantly reduces heat transfer, keeping interiors warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Additionally, as standard the glass is toughened for enhanced safety levels. Choose Quick-Glide and benefit from market-leading performance and modern features.
Triple Glazing
Upgrade to triple glazed doors to achieve u-values as low as 1.3. Triple glazing is made up of three panes of glass with argon gas within each of the two pockets. Triple glazing work in the same way as double glazing although with triple glazed units you get an extra pane of glass and extra insulation barrier.
Spacer Bars
Spacer bars are positioned around the perimeter of the glass panes to provide structural support to the unit and to spacer ensure that the space between the glass panes remains consistent. We offer 3 different bar finishes: black, grey, and white.
Preview Finishes
Laminated Glass
You have the option to upgrade your new slide and fold door with laminated glass for enhanced safety. One of the most notable advantages of laminated glass is its safety features. In the event of breakage, the interlayer holds the glass fragments together, preventing them from shattering into sharp pieces.

Weatherproofing
Quick-Glide doors incorporate advanced sealing mechanisms, made of high-quality rubber, to create a tight seal when the doors are closed, preventing water, wind, and dust from penetrating the interior spaces. The doors have been tested to British weather standards, allowing homeowners to enjoy indoor-outdoor living spaces year-round without compromising comfort or energy efficiency.
Thermal Efficiency
The double or triple glazing and insulated profiles of the door will help to improve the thermal efficiency. Once installed, Quick-Glide can reduce heat loss, keeping the temperature of a property at an optimum level for longer. The polyamide thermal break also helps to prevent the cold outside to enter the home through the aluminium frame.
Security
Our Quick-Glide double glazed slide and stack doors have undergone testing to meet the enhanced Document Q standards, mandatory for new-builds, and are accompanied by the option of a PAS 24 security upgrade. Our sliding stacking doors offer top-tier security features without compromising on ease of use. They’re practical and incorporate all the necessary safety features for homeowners. As part of this security enhancement, Quick-Glide will also require laminated glass.
Manufacturing Guarantee
Our doors come with an impressive manufacturing guarantee of up to 10 years (depending on element) to give the homeowner complete peace of mind. We are confident in the quality of our products and their ability to last. Choose the Quick-Glide door today, the revolutionary and modern alternative to the traditional bifold.
Door Configurations
Versatile Design
Versatility is at the core of Quick-Glide’s design ethos. With configurations ranging from two to five-panel options, Quick-Glide adapts effortlessly to your space. Open the master door and slide the panels across to create a versatile opening. Operating on a smooth sliding mechanism with self-lubricating pads instead of rollers, this revolutionary door can be personalised to create a configuration to suit. Not only do the door panels slide independently, but they can also be opened outwards for easy access outside.
The Latest Trend!
This modern slide and fold system developed in partnership with Invisifold specifically for the Quick-Glide door means the possibilities are virtually endless. Manufactured using high quality aluminium and finished to the highest standards, Quick-Glide is the newest design to hit the market. Combining beautiful style and practical features, the Quickslide-Glide door uses the next generation of technology for the best results.
Unbeatable Security
The new Quick-Glide door provides unbeatable levels of security. The durable panels fit together tightly, creating a barrier between the inside and the harsh elements outside. Using a secure 3-star diamond cylinder and crab claw lock, the Quick-Glide door is the ultimate deterrent against unwanted intruders. This, in combination with the double or triple glazed panels and hardwearing aluminium profiles, provides high levels of security.

FAQs
View All FAQsWhat is a slide & fold door?
A slide and fold door, also known as a slide and stack door, is a type of patio door system that allows the panels to slide and fold to one or both sides of an opening. The panels move individually and are not connected, so there is no limit to the number of configurations you can have.
Why choose slide and fold doors over bi-folds?
Slide and fold doors like the new Quick-Glide system come with fully independent panels that can be moved and opened individually to allow openings virtually anywhere along the track, but which may also be fully opened when required just like bi-folds.
Quick-Glide doors don’t have any visible D-pull handles, shoot bolts, or hinges, giving them a cleaner look. You can also set them to a vent position on warm days to let in fresh air and don’t take up outdoor space until they’re opened. Their sightlines are 10mm narrower than on our bi-fold doors, meaning you have a clearer view. Plus, you only need to move one door at a time to
open or close them. And to top it off, you will always get a traffic door (a door with a handle) which is great for every-day use.
What is the guarantee?
The door (frame) come with a 10-year guarantee. Handles, moving parts, and glass will vary. A full overview is available. Wondering how you can know they last 10 years?
Before we sell the doors, they are sent to a lab for testing. The master door is cycled open and closed 50,000 times (which is about 13 times a day for 10 years), and the sliding panels are tested for 20,000 cycles (about 5 times a day). One cycle means fully opening and then closing the door.
What are the doors made from?
The doors are made from thermally broken, powder-coated aluminium (Grade 6060T6). A thermal break helps to reduce heat loss. It uses a low-conductivity material within the frame to separate the inside and outside, preventing heat from escaping and cold from entering.
What is the U-value of the door?
For double glazed Quick-Glide doors, the U value is 1.6 for both 4/20/4 and 4/18/6.8 glazing options.
For triple glazed Quick-Glide doors, the U value is 1.4 for the 4/10/4/12/6.8 laminate, and 1.3 for the 4/12/4/12/4 option.
Please keep in mind that integrated blinds are only available with double glazing, not triple.
How do I operate the Quick-Glide doors?
The doors will only open when pushed all the way to the master door, and must only slide and open in the same direction as the traffic/master door, so they need to be in the correct position to operate. The traffic door must always be hinged to the outer frame, and for now, Quick-Glide doors can only open outwards.
What security measures are supplied?
The standard cylinder provided is an Avocet ABS 3-star anti-pick, anti-bump, and antidrill cylinder for added security. The doors lock with “I-bolts” at the top, middle, and bottom, which can withstand a security load of 450kg per locking point, ensuring they are very sturdy. Quick-Glide doors are also manufactured with a crab claw lock, which is a special lock with hooks that pull towards each other.
