Default Patio Door - option?

Thanks for that - it would be better if the 'side panel' could also
open as it is really useful for moving furniture in if I can have the
full opening on occasions.

What sort of cost might I be looking at? I am reluctant to approach
the usual Double Glazing firms for just one item.


I honestly don't know about cost because one of mine was part of a
whole-house double glazing job nearly 20 years ago, and the other was part
of a recent extension - where the builder bundled the cost of the windows
into the overall cost.

If it all needs to open, it would look better as two equal doors. The narrow
panel only gains you a bit a light in cases where it *doesn't* open - so you
save some frame members.

As far as a supplier is concerned, look in Yellow Pages and try to find
someone who makes windows locally. *Don't* go to the national companies!
