DC5 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Hi Folks, I'm in Stirlingshire and currently looking into glazing options for our new extension with glazed gable. I've had quotes from Express Bifolds & Origin but someone has just recommended Quickslide to me and they seem to be pretty competitive does anyone have any experience? https://www.quickslide.co.uk/?gclid=CjwKCAjw1ej5BRBhEiwAfHyh1H_Dp6moqnPmq_3Ot3u8NIRBPUPVYVWnsK1q3i5Wk_ZMXTTQK124SRoC1yEQAvD_BwE We are looking at midrange windows etc if anyone has any other suggestions. Any suggestions appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozza Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Hi, I’m in Aberdeenshire. Have you had a look at Rationel? I’ve had them - alu clad triple glazed - installed in my self build and I thought they were pretty good value and my builder is impressed with the quality etc of them. not in the house yet so cant comment further than that. Service from local distributor was superb. Edited August 17, 2020 by Bozza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Another vote for Rationel, best balance of quality and price I could find but they don't do bifolds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozza Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 DC5, Ralph Is right enough re Rationel bifolds. What Rationel do do is window doors. As in full height that look like windows but hinge out and bottom frame doesn’t look like a window frame. See my pic. I’ve got 6 of them In my house £800 each if I recall. 3G aluclad. my builder said they were mega heavy. I think ADW their distributor has a place in Cumbernauld so a short drive from Stirling.

I really liked these, we changed design of the house and did not go for them in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC5 Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 Thanks folks, in an ideal world I would use Rationel, I will look at them and their pricing again but this project has grown so many arms and legs I need to watch the cost! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nod Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Great quality I nicked the bottom seal fitting one set they sent me a new one stating that all components where guaranteed for ten years I recently got a call about French doors I fitted fours years back from Quickslide The door had slammed and the sleeve the latch closes into had snapped They sent a full locking mechanism 24 hour delivery No charge Both have second to none after sales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
