The humidity in the wood should not be too high. In addition, it is best when the temperature is between 10-20 degrees and you are not painting in direct sunlight. Don't start painting before the dew has disappeared and don't start so late that the dew returns before the paint is completely dry.
Weather-wise, late summer is often a good time to paint.

It's best to paint before the paint starts to crack or peel, as all you need to do is clean. before painting on top. Once the paint has started to crack, we recommend sanding and priming before repainting.
It is recommended to give the woodwork two thin coats of paint rather than one thick coat. Let the paint dry for 24 hours between coats, remembering not to close the windows until the paint is dry.
A good tip is to take off the window frames and remove as many fittings as possible to speed up the painting process and make it possible to paint underneath the fittings.
It is important that you do not paint sealing strips, fittings and warranty and production labelling.

Sliding patio doors

Sliding patio doors are a modern solution, which ensure that you get the most out of the living space in your home.

If you do not have the space for an inward or outward opening double French door, but wish to have access to the garden/patio while letting as much natural light in as possible, a sliding patio door is the ideal choice!

When opening a sliding patio door, the door handle will raise the door slightly and the door can slide open to the side on a special rail. In this way the door doesn’t take up any space even when it’s open, unlike a normal patio door that opens either inwards or outwards. You can thus save space both inside and outside and better utilize both your living room and your outdoor patio!

You can easily find a price for your new sliding patio door – in fact, we have some of the lowest prices for sliding timber or alu clad patio doors on the market! Extra accessories include vents and door handles with inside locks for extra security.
