For homeowners across Windsor, Berkshire, and London, the transition between indoor living spaces and the outdoors has become a focal point of modern architectural design. At Inspired Glazing, we understand that a sliding door is more than just an entrance; it is a structural element that defines the character of your home. To deliver the highest standards of aesthetics and engineering, we have partnered with Reynaers Aluminium, a global leader in high-end glazing systems.

By combining Reynaers’ world-class engineering with our expert manufacturing and installation capabilities, we provide a premium service for those seeking the ultimate in performance and style. Whether you are upgrading a period property in Windsor or completing a contemporary build in West London, our made-to-measure Reynaers sliding doors offer a bespoke solution tailored to your exact requirements.

The Partnership: Inspired Glazing and Reynaers Aluminium

Unlike many providers who simply resell standard units, Inspired Glazing takes a hands-on approach to every project. We are proud to both manufacture and install Reynaers systems. This vertically integrated process allows us to maintain total control over quality, from the initial cut of the aluminium profile to the final sealant bead on-site.

Manufacturing Reynaers systems requires high levels of precision. These are not off-the-shelf products; they are sophisticated architectural tools designed to perform under pressure. Our facility is equipped to handle the intricate specifications of the Reynaers range, ensuring that every frame is millimetre-perfect. For our clients in Berkshire and London, this means shorter lead times, superior quality assurance, and a product that is built to last for decades.

Exploring the Reynaers Range: Hi-Finity, CP 130, and CP 155

Reynaers offers a diverse portfolio of sliding door systems, each designed to solve specific architectural challenges. At Inspired Glazing, we specialise in three core models that represent the pinnacle of aluminium sliding door technology.

1. Reynaers Hi-Finity: The Ultra-Slim Masterpiece

The Hi-Finity system is the premier choice for homeowners seeking the “infinite view.” It is designed with minimalist architecture in mind, featuring ultra-slim sightlines that allow the glass to take centre stage.

• Ultra-Slim Interlock: The central meeting point of the doors is incredibly narrow, ensuring that even when the doors are closed, your view of the garden remains virtually uninterrupted.
• Floor-to-Ceiling Glass: Hi-Finity can support massive glass panes, creating a true “glass wall” effect.
• High Load Capacity: Despite its slim profile, the system can carry the weight of large double or triple-glazed units (up to 750kg for motorised versions).

This system is particularly popular for high-end renovations in areas like Beaconsfield and Gerrards Cross, where maximizing natural light and views is a primary objective.

2. Reynaers CP 130: The Versatile All-Rounder

The ConceptPatio (CP) 130 is one of the most popular sliding systems in the UK. It offers a perfect balance between performance, aesthetics, and cost-effectiveness.

• Configuration Flexibility: Available in various opening types, including monorail, duo-rail, and 3-rail options.
• Thermal Performance: The CP 130 is a highly insulated system, achieving U-values as low as 1.5 W/m²K with triple glazing.
• Low Threshold: It can be installed with a flush threshold, removing trip hazards and creating a seamless transition between the kitchen and the patio.

For those looking for sliding bi-fold doors alternatives that prioritise larger glass panes over multiple folding panels, the CP 130 is an industry-standard choice.

3. Reynaers CP 155: For Massive Spans and Extreme Performance

When a project demands massive glass panels and exceptional weather resistance, we turn to the CP 155. This “Lift & Slide” system is engineered for large-scale applications.

• Heavyweight Capability: It can accommodate glass weights up to 400kg per leaf, allowing for extraordinarily wide openings.
• Thermal Excellence: The CP 155 is designed for high-insulation requirements, often used in sustainable or low-energy building projects.
• Lift & Slide Technology: The mechanism lifts the door slightly before sliding, reducing friction and making even the heaviest doors feel light and effortless to operate.

Technical Excellence: Energy Efficiency and Security

At Inspired Glazing, we don’t just focus on looks. A door must protect your home from the elements and from intruders. Reynaers systems are world-renowned for their technical specifications.

Thermal Performance and U-Values

Energy efficiency is a critical consideration for any home improvement project in the UK. Our Reynaers sliding doors feature advanced thermal breaks that prevent “cold bridging.” By using high-performance glazing, these systems achieve impressive U-values, helping to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. This not only improves comfort but can also lead to a reduction in energy bills.

Weather-Tight Sealing

London and Berkshire weather can be unpredictable. Reynaers doors are rigorously tested for air, wind, and water tightness. The EPDM gaskets and weather seals are designed to remain flexible and effective over thousands of cycles, ensuring that even during a heavy storm in Windsor, your interior remains dry and draught-free.

Secure Hardware

Security is non-negotiable. All our Reynaers sliding doors are equipped with multi-point locking systems and high-security cylinders. Many configurations are certified to PAS 24 and Secured by Design (SBD) standards, providing peace of mind for homeowners. The inherent strength of aluminium makes it much harder to breach than traditional timber or older uPVC frames.

Made-to-Measure Precision for Local Homeowners

Every home is unique, which is why we do not offer “standard sizes.” Every Reynaers door that leaves our facility is a bespoke creation. We provide a full survey and design service to ensure that your new doors fit perfectly into your existing or new-build aperture.

Our service area covers the heart of the home counties and the capital:

• Windsor and Maidenhead: We have extensive experience working with homeowners on windows and doors in Windsor, ensuring that new installations complement the local architectural heritage.
• Ascot and Sunningdale: For the luxury market in Ascot and Sunningdale, Reynaers aluminium systems are the preferred choice for their sleek, high-end finish.
• West London: From Ealing to Richmond, our West London windows and doors service provides modern glazing solutions for urban terrace houses and detached villas alike.

Why Choose Aluminium Over uPVC?

While we offer a range of products, including uPVC windows and doors, aluminium is the superior choice for sliding doors. The strength-to-weight ratio of aluminium allows for much slimmer frames and larger expanses of glass. Unlike uPVC, aluminium will not warp, twist, or expand significantly in direct sunlight, which is vital for the smooth operation of large sliding panels. For a detailed comparison, you can read our guide on double glazing aluminium vs uPVC windows.

Our Installation Process: A Commitment to Quality

A premium product like Reynaers requires a premium installation. Our team of in-house fitters is trained specifically in the nuances of aluminium systems.

1. Initial Consultation: We discuss your goals, whether it’s more light, better security, or improved thermal performance.
2. Precision Survey: We take exact measurements to ensure a “first-time fit.”
3. Bespoke Manufacture: Your doors are crafted in our controlled facility.
4. Professional Installation: We remove your old doors and install the new Reynaers system with minimal disruption, ensuring a weather-tight and secure finish.
5. Aftercare: Every installation is backed by our guarantee, and we are always available for window repairs and replacements should you need us in the future.

Case Studies: Proven Results

We have transformed numerous properties across the region. From replacing outdated French doors with a 6-metre CP 130 run in Beaconsfield to installing a corner-opening Hi-Finity system in a London penthouse, our case studies demonstrate our ability to handle complex architectural requirements.

One recent project in Windsor involved a traditional red-brick home. The client wanted to open up their kitchen to the garden but was worried about losing the character of the house. By selecting a Reynaers CP 130 system in a textured “Anthracite Grey” finish, we provided a modern touch that sat perfectly alongside the traditional brickwork, drastically increasing the natural light in the property.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Reynaers sliding doors easy to maintain?
Yes. Aluminium is incredibly durable and only requires an occasional wipe-down with soapy water to keep the frames looking new. The tracks should be kept clear of debris to ensure a smooth sliding motion.

What is the lead time for a bespoke Reynaers door?
Because we manufacture these systems ourselves, we can often offer more competitive lead times than companies that outsource their fabrication. Contact us for a current estimate based on your specific model.

Can I get a flush threshold?
Absolutely. Many of our Reynaers systems are designed specifically to allow for a level threshold between the interior floor and the exterior decking or paving, provided the site conditions allow for proper drainage.
