The Integrity Behind the Design: What We Do & Why We Do It

When we started The Sliding Door Company in 2005, we thought it was about time consumers got high-quality sliding doors and glass partitions, so we set out to build sliding glass doors that were safer, quieter, more beautiful and more durable than anything that was gliding around on the market.
From day one, we put integrity at the center of our company culture. What does it mean to say we live and breathe integrity? It means we design and manufacture our own sliding doors in-house, where we can ensure quality at every step. It means we hire people who love a great design as much as they love great people.
It means we have a passion for getting it right. That we never, ever cut corners. That we can look our customers in the eye and say that their doors are safe, they never leave their tracks and they are perfect for green construction. It means we prize innovation, prioritize safety, and put service and quality first. In other words, integrity means you can count on us to deliver only the best.

Integrity Equals Quality … Always

Our motto is “Safety You Can Trust. Quality Always.” That isn’t just a marketing scheme—a tagline to lure people in. It’s our philosophy. Our core principle. Our guiding light. It says something about our doors, but also about us, about who we are and why we’re here.
Our employees don’t just clock in and out every day. They have a passion for making customers’ dreams come true. While our doors are unquestionably safe, our approach to interior design is anything but timid.
To the contrary, we create an atmosphere that encourages creativity and innovation, that inspires you to push the limits and make the impossible a reality—because integrity also means we’re never content to stand still as the world changes around us. Only by staying ahead of the curve can we give our customers what they want, at times even before they want it!
Day in and day out, our team helps people all over the country realize their interior design visions, whether those are modernist living rooms or safe playrooms, elegant dining rooms or handy kitchen pantries. In showrooms across the nation, our account executives help people find interior glass doors that raise the profile of their homes and bring beauty into their lives.

Custom Doors Made by Real People for Real People

In other words, working for The Sliding Door Company is more than a job, and sliding glass doors are more than just “products” or interchangeable units passing through an endless assembly line. They’re unique. Custom-built. Made to order. Each one is a testament to stylish design and impressive craftsmanship.
Our team members take pride in their work because we make unique, customized doors that meet just about any specifications. You choose the design, the frame, the glass, the size, the handles. You choose where you want your doors to go and how you want them to open. We work with you every step of the way to refine and then execute your vision.
With so many options, you get nearly endless combinations. Create a smart, sophisticated dining room with room dividers outfitted with clear or frosted glass. Erect a safe, transparent partition between the living room and the nursery with Solo doors made of clear, tempered glass. Use laminated glass barn doors to create a seamless transition between the living room and the family room. Whatever style or atmosphere you want, we can help you achieve it.

They’ll form the backdrop to some of your happiest, most intimate moments.
Put simply, our glass sliding doors bring beauty, charm, and peace of mind to any home—and that’s why perfection is non-negotiable.

Our Sliding Glass Doors Make Life Easier

When it comes to interior doors, aesthetics are important, but convenience is critical. From start to finish, from installation to everyday use, The Sliding Door Company takes the burden off the customer. Our easy-to-install doors require no major construction or renovation. In fact, you don’t have to lift a finger. Just sit back and relax as we deliver and install the doors in your home.
When you custom-order a door from us, you also get the benefits our smooth glide roller system. Designed and built exclusively by The Sliding Door Company, our rollers take the pain and noise out of out of opening and closing. No more tugging or yanking. No more squeaks or thumps. Even a young child can slide the doors with one finger without making a peep. Since we build for quality, you get easy, near-silent operation for years to come.
Need even more safety and convenience? Throw on a custom handle, latch, or lock. Choose from square handles, round handles, flush handles, and lever handles. We even carry ADA-compliant lock and handle systems.

Factory Direct to YOU!

What sets The Sliding Door Company apart from the competition? In addition to quality, safety, and design, we offer factory-to-field service. In other words, we control everything from start to finish, from the drawing board to the factory floor and from the showroom to the home.
No middleman. No jumping through hurdles. No uninformed salespeople. No pointless, marathon calls that waste everybody’s time. Talk to most sliding door retailers, and you’ll end up speaking to someone who knows little about the overall production process—how the doors are made, what materials are used, or why they cost what they cost.
Do business with The Sliding Door Company, and you’ll get answers to all of your questions because every one of our employees knows the business inside and out. The factory-direct model also gives us the opportunity to offer the best prices on all of our products.

Safety You Can Trust

Interior sliding doors should be beautiful to behold. They should be quiet. They should be easy to install. Most of all, they should be safe. That requires conscious effort at every stage of the production process. It demands superior design, quality manufacturing, and unwavering attention to detail. Without such a commitment to safety, those gorgeous sliding doors you just installed could be nothing more than a disaster waiting to happen.
At The Sliding Door company, safety isn’t a side note. It’s a way of life. Instead of relying on 3mm or 4mm glass, as many sliding door companies do, we use only 5mm tempered glass or 7mm laminated safety glass. We make our frames from a special type of aluminum—lightweight, yet strong and durable, friendlier to the environment than wood, but available in a walnut or wenge finish to name a few!
Meanwhile, our proprietary locking systems assure that the panels can never leave their tracks, so you never have to worry about dislodged doors. We design and make each door to withstand wear, tear, and rough use. In other words, we construct glass doors and walls for real people who lead real lives.
