Your guide to saving space with uPVC sliding doors!

Remember the days when the conventional wooden doors made their signature creaking sound? They occupied a fair share of space, too, on being opened and closed, and would often prove to be unable to keep the internal temperatures regulated and stabilized.

It was mainly because of the inadequacy and inefficiency of these traditional wooden doors in keeping up with a wide range of present-day requirements, including energy efficiency, low-maintenance, durability, and aesthetic appeal, that have given rise to uPVC doors.

The uPVC doors are high on demand, mostly due to their insulation that helps keep the air conditioned- cold air is prevented from escaping out, while hot air is prevented from blowing in. They also help block rainwater seepage, keep out the outdoor noise and insects, prevent dust build-up, improve home safety and security, and require low (or no) maintenance, while giving your interiors an architectural dimension.
