Can I mix multiple panel materials?

Yes. Glide doors can be manufactured with a mix of MFC board, mirror, Lacobel glass and high gloss acrylic panels within a single door. This allows completely bespoke designs to be created for individual projects, with hundreds of design combinations available across frame finishes, decorative boards, glass options and acrylic panels.

Can sliding doors be installed in walk-in wardrobes?

Yes. The bi-directional design makes Glide doors particularly well-suited to walk-in wardrobe and dressing room configurations where both sides of the door may be visible. Made-to-measure manufacturing ensures exact fit for any opening dimension.

What frame finishes are available?

The aluminium frame is available in Matt Silver, Polished Chrome, Champagne, Brushed Black, Matt Iron Grey and Polished Iron Grey. These contemporary finishes allow designers and homeowners to coordinate sliding doors with modern furniture, flooring and interior colour schemes.

Are bespoke designs available?

Yes. In addition to the eight standard design configurations (Design A through Design H), we can manufacture completely bespoke door designs to suit individual projects. Panel arrangements can be customised with MFC board, mirror, Lacobel glass and high gloss acrylic in any combination.

What board materials are supported?

The 18mm board cavity accommodates standard 18mm MFC boards from Egger and Finsa, as well as 18mm acrylic panels. The 4mm glass and mirror cavity accommodates Lacobel glass and mirror panels without plastic inserts. Woodgrain effects, high gloss acrylic and mirror options are all available.

What wardrobe accessories work best with sliding doors?

Internal storage options such as clothes lifters, pull out baskets, shoe racks and trouser storage systems are frequently incorporated into sliding wardrobe projects.

Can internal wardrobe accessories be added later?

Many accessories can be installed during the initial fit-out or added as future upgrades depending on the wardrobe design.

How can I maximise storage inside a sliding wardrobe?

Combining sliding doors with internal organisation accessories such as pull down rails, pull out baskets and shoe storage systems can help maximise available space.
