01

Operation and everyday use

The single door leaf is designed to open outwards. This fixed movement shapes daily use and should suit both the intended purpose and the building situation. Practical operation depends on the handle selected for your order and the specified construction.

SPILKA hardware and an ASSA 3-point lock are part of the construction, securing the door at three points. Include this feature with your preferred material, glazing, design, colour and handle in your enquiry, so every part of the planned version can be identified clearly.

When planning, allow for the outward movement of the leaf. The area set aside for it should work with the installation setting and the intended use of the entrance. Consider adjacent building elements and regularly used outdoor areas so the opening direction suits the project.

The chosen design also changes the door’s everyday visual character. A large uninterrupted pane looks different from glazing with bars or a glass-and-panel arrangement, although every available design opens outwards as a single leaf. In use, make sure the leaf sits correctly in the frame after closing and that the lock is fully engaged. If it later becomes unusually difficult to move or lock, have the cause checked by a qualified professional.

02

Construction and confirmed component dimensions

An outward-opening leaf and its matching frame form the door. The timber frame is 105 × 57 mm, while the aluminium-clad frame is 115 × 57 mm. The leaf is 76 × 78 mm, and that component dimension also applies to aluminium-clad construction. These are dimensions of individual parts, rather than the depth, width or height of the finished door.

Installation information specifies 14 mm holes. This construction detail does not replace measuring the proposed opening or planning the fixings for the particular building situation. The overall external dimensions of the made-to-measure door follow your order. Keep component dimensions separate from the order size when preparing information or discussing installation with us.

Available materials are pine, aluminium-clad pine, oak and aluminium-clad oak. This gives you a choice between a timber-only construction and a timber-and-aluminium version. Always use the complete material name in your enquiry so the required option is clear and can be coordinated with colour, glazing and design.

The patio door is CE marked and offered with a five-year guarantee. It also includes SPILKA hardware and an ASSA 3-point lock. Record these product details with the material, order size and design in your project documents. If several doors or windows are planned, a clear position number helps assign dimensions and choices to the correct element.

05

Assessing the proposed opening correctly

A made-to-measure door starts with an opening that is clearly identified. Record which side of the building will receive the patio door, and identify the inside and outside. For renovation work, clarify which existing elements will remain and which will be removed. This helps avoid measurements being taken from different reference points.

Because the leaf opens outwards, include its movement area outside in the planning. Check adjacent walls, parapets, balustrades, steps, projections, furniture, planters and other items placed there permanently or temporarily. Also consider pathways and frequently used areas. The clear space required depends on the dimensions of the made-to-measure door and the specific installation setting.

Document the proposed opening clearly and use the same measurement points throughout. Individual figures without an identifiable reference can be misunderstood easily. A simple sketch showing the inside and outside, opening position and adjacent elements can usefully support written information. Photos can add context but do not replace professional measuring.

Also account for floor build-ups and finished surfaces in project planning. Where the final condition differs from the current site condition, make this clear in the information. The same applies to cladding or connections that will be added later. Stated frame and leaf dimensions are component dimensions and must not be used as the finished order size for the complete door.

For additional confidence, you may have the dimensions and building conditions checked by a suitable professional. This is particularly helpful where floor build-ups, cladding or connections may still change. Separating structural opening size, planned final condition and the required door element provides a clear basis for further discussion.

06

Visual composition, material and colour selection

The patio door’s appearance comes from several related decisions. Material establishes the character first: pine and oak are available as timber versions, and both can also be aluminium clad. Keep the full material name because “timber” or “aluminium” alone does not identify the offered construction precisely.

A choice of colours is available, allowing coordination with the façade, nearby windows, roof details, doors and visible interior materials. In an existing building, blending with established colours may be appropriate; in a new design, deliberate contrast can highlight the entrance or patio access. Tell us your colour preference as specifically as possible and assess it with the selected material version.

The handle is selectable and forms part of the visible composition. Tell us which design direction you prefer for the handle and how it should work with the door colour and neighbouring elements. Record the required handle with material, colour, glazing and design in the enquiry.

The glass design has a particularly strong influence on visual order. A version without bars creates a calm, continuous glazed surface, while horizontal bars bring stronger division. Vertical glass, combined horizontal and vertical bars, and infills provide further accents. Compare the illustration of the desired design with lines in adjacent building elements rather than viewing the layout in isolation.

Build the specification in stages: select the material construction, then colour, glazing build-up, design and handle. The parts need not compete for attention; they may be coordinated quietly or arranged around one deliberate feature. Once everything is decided, document the entire combination so the overall appearance can be reviewed, rather than judging each choice separately.

Alternatives for other door and window concepts

Not every project calls for a single-leaf patio door opening outwards. Bloomcabin therefore offers further door and window types for different openings, ways of using a space and design objectives. Compare opening style, number of leaves or elements, required movement area and preferred glazing division against your project requirements.

If you are planning a double-leaf solution rather than one leaf, choose an outward-opening patio door with two leaves. A double-leaf historical-style version is also available for more traditional architecture. Both product groups are made to measure and offered with different bar patterns and panel versions. Check the exact leaf arrangement against the selected configuration and proposed opening.

An outward-opening exterior door is another option, with glazing, bars and door panels depending on the design. Where the leaf needs to move sideways, sliding doors are a separate product type. The outward-opening folding doors shown in the range have three or five leaves and fold to the right. Compare these movement types with the available space and intended use of the entrance early in planning.

A single-piece glazed door sidelight is fixed and cannot be opened. It may suit a design requiring an additional fixed glazed area beside a door element. The sidelight is made to measure and can be designed without bars, with several bar divisions, or with a panel. Plan its size and position as part of the complete opening concept.

Where an opening is intended only for stationary glazing, the range includes fixed windows. Rectangular forms are available, while fixed round windows offer a separate shape. Neither type opens; both can use double- or triple-glazed insulated glass. Check the shape, material and bar pattern alongside the other elements in your project.

Prepare your enquiry in clear steps

Start by assigning a clear project reference. Note where the door is to be used and mark the relevant opening on your documents. Where several doors or windows are involved, give each its own position reference. Later questions can then be linked to the right element without mixing details from different areas.

Next, provide the professionally checked order size or the measuring information needed to establish it. Add a sketch showing inside and outside, adjacent elements and the planned finished condition. If floors, wall cladding or connections will change, state this expressly. Do not use frame or leaf component dimensions as a substitute for the size of the complete door element.

Then choose the material version. State in full whether you require pine, aluminium-clad pine, oak or aluminium-clad oak. Add your colour and handle preferences. General wording such as “to suit the house” is not enough for an unambiguous configuration; describe the intended design direction as specifically as possible.

Then determine the glazing and design. Distinguish between the technical glass assembly and the visible division. Copy the complete design name, particularly where glazing bars, vertical glass, a panel or an infill are required. This keeps the intended composition clear.

Finally, bring every decision together in one consistent enquiry: project position, dimensions, material, colour, handle, glazing and design. Check that the same terms appear in the sketch and text, with no conflicting information. List outstanding questions separately. A concise, well-structured summary helps us identify your requirements and provides a clear starting point for discussing your made-to-measure patio door.

Is the patio door available made to measure?

Yes. The patio door is available made to measure. For a clear enquiry, we need the dimensions of the proposed opening and information about the installation situation. Check the measurements and building conditions before ordering.

Which materials can I choose?

Choose pine, aluminium-clad pine, oak or aluminium-clad oak. Your material choice affects the visible design and should be considered together with colour, glazing and design.

Can I choose the patio door colour?

Yes, colour selection is one of the available choices. Coordinate the preferred colour with the material version, façade, adjacent elements and interior. Include the specific colour information in your enquiry.

Is there a choice of handles?

Yes, a handle can also be selected to suit the door. Consider both the appearance you want and everyday operation. Tell us your handle preference with the material, colour, glazing and design so the configuration can be considered as a whole.

Is a version with an infill possible?

Yes. Depending on the design, glazing can be combined with a panel or infill. Fully glazed designs without bars and several layouts with horizontal and vertical bars are also available. State the complete name of the required design in your enquiry.

Does the door have multipoint locking?

Yes. The patio door has an ASSA 3-point lock and also uses SPILKA hardware. The lock secures the door at three points. Within the available versions, material, handle, colour, glazing and design can be coordinated.

What colour are the glazing seals?

The glazing seals are black rubber. When coordinating the design, consider this fixed detail colour with the selected timber species, any aluminium cladding, door colour, bar pattern and possible infill.

How long is the guarantee?

The commercial guarantee runs for five years. Keep the documents supplied with your order and selected version safely so the details for that door remain identifiable. This guarantee is additional to any non-excludable rights under Australian Consumer Law.
