Wakefield Glass Rooms with Sliding Walls — Designed, Built and Installed by One Team
The reason customers in Wakefield pick a sliding-wall glass room over a fixed one is simple: they use it differently in July than in January. Panels stack flush to a corner in summer, close and seal in winter. Same room, two lives.
Wakefield customers most often want
a sliding-wall room used as a summer terrace and winter room
a fully-opening rear glass room off a Wakefield kitchen
an entertaining space that connects patio and interior seamlessly

Frequently asked questions
Do I need planning?
Under permitted development in most Wakefield gardens. Conservation areas around the Calder & Hebble Navigation sometimes need a formal application; Leeds City Council / Bradford MDC / Kirklees / Calderdale / Wakefield MDC handles this.
How long is the install?
Three to five days on site for a typical Wakefield sliding-wall room. Manufacturing lead time 8-12 weeks depending on panel spec.
Can I keep just one panel open in winter?
Yes — every panel operates independently. Most Wakefield winter use is one panel cracked for airflow, the rest closed.
What's the U-value?
Comparable to a modern extension when closed — double-glazed toughened units with thermally broken frames. Standard Wakefield winter use with a small electric heater is comfortable.
Is the track flush with the floor?
Yes — concealed track set into the base means no trip hazard and no exposed groove to clean. This is set at base preparation stage.
