As to how we were from initial contact (were we polite)? Yes a bit abrupt especially the on site visit. Arranging installation (were we on time and on schedule) Excellent. Were we clean and tidy? Good but the windows were left uncleaned so difficult to check for scratches. VG at organising a company to deal with the scratches + v good service from scratch man. And finally are you pleased with our doors (would you Recommend us)? Wonderful so far. We haven’t used them as the build is still on going.

Your fitters were on time on site and I managed to speak with them before they started. They were very helpful and offered me a solution for a small problem we had regarding the level of the bottom track, I was impressed that we found the best solution and they agreed to proceed with the work without any hesitation. Their tools were left in one corner so they are not on the way of anyone, even though none of my guys were working I the same area, and they left no rubbish lying around. I’m sure it was Adam I spoke to, and I can say that he is top notch guy, very friendly, polite and helpful. Overall I would say that the provided service was very professional and definitely I would recommend you to my clients.
Style Builders, South Croydon
Installation of four double-glazed doors, internal to a large bay window arrangement, top floor flat. Initial contact was by email and a quote came back within a couple of days. More than can be said for some of the other companies we contacted about similar products. We visited the factory for a demonstration and were also put in touch with a relatively local previous customer whom we went to see, to look at the product in the 'real world' so to speak and to discuss their experience with the company. This was a very positive visit and we decided to go ahead with ordering. After some negotiation on price (this is not a cheap product, but you get what you pay for!) the order was placed, a site survey was carried out, and we awaited a call for an installation date. This came much sooner than anticipated which was great. On the installation day, the three installers arrived on time at 08:00 and they were done by 16:00. It took twice as long as anticipated due to them having to drill out concrete to lay the track. There was not one grumble about this, they were all polite and friendly guys. Quite a lot of mess was made by the installation, mainly due to drilling into concrete, but the guys were careful to clean up after themselves as best they could.
MIKE LEVERS, Hove
We are delighted with the glass doors and so grateful that completion was before Christmas! We would be happy for anyone to come and see the installation and would recommend your company as polite, efficient and totally professional.
1st Church of Christ Science, Claygate
On the day of installation your fitters arrived on time and commenced with the installation. They were courteous and polite and left the work area clean and tidy. I would be happy for you to use the installation as a promotional example of your work.
ABCO, Southampton
May I ask you for a review on how we performed? – all very good except that it took a month to get the correct size of glass doors after the wrong sized ones turned up on initial installation – good job it wasn’t winter or might have been having a different conversation. I appreciate this was an error at the factory. In response to my initial query– Paul fitted a locking handle to the outside of the door on the second visit which helps. We just need to solve the air gaps when the door is not sealed.
How were we from initial contact (were we polite)? – Paul and Ricky were very helpful, polite and knowledgeable – please pass on my thanks to them both.
Arranging installation (were we on time and on schedule) - Both visits on time for 08:00
Were we clean and tidy? – yes
And finally are you pleased with our doors (would you Recommend us)? – Yes - I’m very pleased so far – look great and of good quality, feel solid and safe. I’ll know better though after a few months of constant use from the family…….. In terms of the competition – you are slightly more expensive than a traditional tri fold door. We decided to use you as we were already converts to glass curtains. And we needed the flexibility in the way your doors split and open. I think the majority of people need convincing for some reason.
I have an outstanding query ref the sealing of the doors when the handle has not been turned. Paul is developing an idea to help me – I’d really appreciate it if Paul can come back to me as soon as he can. The glass curtains are in constant use all day and my family are not good at going through the doors and then turning the handle to seal….. – Paul knows the details. In terms of making a difference – these glass curtains have replaced some single glazed glass curtains – and there is already a difference in the evening if the temp drops outside and we have them shut. Family getting used to them . Cat is freaked out by them, nobody has run into them yet….

Dear Frameless Glass Curtains,
I would thoroughly recommend anyone to use your company. Your product is excellent and the installers were delightful: on time, tidy, quick, cheerful. An initial problem was dealt with immediately. The doors have changed how I feel about living in my small house; they have made the sitting room feel double the size as the walled garden now looks like a second room. Everyone admires them.
There you are, my official honestly felt recommendation which you are welcome to use as you will.
However the immediate aftermath of the first installation was not pleasant. I had a very defensive call from one member of staff and a belligerent email from another; I thought I was dealing with a bunch of cowboy installers and called a solicitor. Paul's intervention changed my mind. I would really urge you to introduce another signing element: when the dimensions have been taken send a detailed plan to the client to be approved and signed.
I wish you all luck - you deserve it.
Kind regards, Evvy
Evvy Edwards, Chiswick
In short, the product offered by Frameless Glass Curtains is nothing short of excellent. These frameless glass doors are a truly unique system that are really aesthetically pleasing and unlike any other product we could find on the market. The doors are very sleek and elegant and create real impact and wow factor. Our experience with FGC, has been, from start to finish, incredibly professional. We have a small garden which is designed to feel like an additional room to our house, so having frameless doors with minimal interruption to the view was really important to us. Gary was exceptionally helpful when we first enquired about the doors and went to great lengths to answer questions, direct us to specific footage and images on the website to demonstrate installations of a similar size and scale, and very swiftly provided quotations for size variations when we were still in discussion with our architects. When we went to the workshop to view the doors in action we were really impressed with the product - both it’s overall look and the ease with which it could be operated. Gary answered our questions in detail with clear descriptions so we could completely understand how the mechanics would work and be able to pass this information on to our builder. FGC then arranged a site visit with our builder to ensure that the space for the doors was created correctly and to double check all measurements - on this occasion, and all other visits to site, staff were prompt and professional. On installation, the FGC worked on-site with consideration for the rest of the building team and took genuine pride in their work. Since installation, we have had our doors serviced and polished and again experienced a very efficient and friendly team who took great care to minimise their impact on our home. We have already recommended FGC to a number of people who have visited our house since their installation and have no qualms about recommending this product or company to anyone looking for a beautiful, uninterrupted view into their garden.
Gemma Alashe, Cambridge
From the time of our first visit to your premises we felt comfortable with your product. It was a product just as we had hoped and envisaged for our new kitchen extension – double glazed, frameless glass doors to cover a 7.310 meter opening ! Until then we were not sure if it was possible. When the 9 doors were first installed the overall affect was more than we could have hoped for, just exactly what we wanted – on time – in budget and wonderful to look at. After a technical hitch with the locking system which was rectified in a short time , the project was completed to our satisfaction.
All your team obviously take a pride in their work, which is much appreciated. A brilliant product that we wish you good luck with in the future. A very satisfied customer. Thank you all.
Mr & Mrs F @ lower road one house Stowmarket
We were very happy with the service offered from start to finish. The frameless glass doors are a perfect solution to our extension and have received many compliments.The workmen who installed the doors were courteous and efficient, the job completed in a few hours, we had a slight problem that needed attending to and this was resolved immediately. We would not hesitate to recommend this company and their wonderful products.
Mrs M @ Beaumont Close London SW15
I am absolutely thrilled with the finished result. You were straightforward to deal with and visiting your site was appreciated. You gave clear statements regarding specification and developed the product to meet our needs. Installation was at the agreed time and there was reassuring and prompt follow-up as the new design needed refining. The product recommends itself... I'm recommending you... and I would certainly buy again
Mr H B @ Kingston
The service I received from FGD was professional and prompt from the initial on site survey through to installation and completion. Added to this the finished product has exceeded my expectations. It has enhanced my home with style and individuality, and enabled me to make use of the space in a way that is ‘unique’.
Mr Mrs H @ Bucklebury West Berkshire
A heartfelt thank you from us. We knew we wanted something a bit special to set off our extension, which has been absolutely essential in making our new home work for the family. We scoured the internet for something that would allow an uninterupted view of the planned garden but would also allow us to throw back the glass in the summer to bring the garden into the house. As soon as I visited the farm, I felt that the frameless glass doors would be the perfect solution, the ingenuity and build quality set them apart from anything I had seen. Once the decision was made, the process was incredibly painless and I think we had them installed within 4 weeks. The installation team were great, ironing out a few challenges along the way, they finished 2 sets of glass curains in a under a day. They look amazing and make such huge difference to the feel of the room. Can't wait to get the carpets down to start using it!
Mr M K @ Saffron Walden
We had been dealing with a large commercial glass door supplier who were extremely slow and unable to meet our requirements for a large opening on our barn. I found your product on the website and came to see you at your farm. You came out the following week and the installation was completed with-in a month. The installation was not without challenges, but your installers were helpful and found a solution to all the problems. We are extremely pleased with the result and have recommended you to other people. We did have a small problem with one of the doors, but you sent someone to look at it and it was repaired within a week.
This is a fantastic product.
I would think about offering the door in thicker glass as it would be better for openings of our size.
Mr W @ Church Street Sutton Courtney Oxford
frameless glass doors invited me to their workshop to view the glass curtains for myself, and to show me how they were made. Installation was clean and tidy. When they say they are going to turn up, they do, and are always on time.The product looks great. It really does make the refurb seem complete, and finishes off the room nicely, and I have already recommeded FGD to my friends.
Ms A @ Earlsfield road London SW18
We wanted to connect two room - a 'sun room' and living room -by replacing a large window with some glass doors. We contacted local suppliers and Googled 'glass partitions'. Local suppliers weren't much help, however the Google came up with just what we wanted - frameless glass doors. We contacted Gary for a price. He arranged to come and do a survey the following week - 600 mile round trip - arrived on time. We agreed on what we wanted and three weeks later the frameless glass curtain were fitted, again on schedule, in only 3 hours. We are very please with them, they are minimalist, modern and very easy to use - just what we wanted and better than our our original plans.
Mr M B @ Praa Sands, Cornwall
On first contact you talked and demonstrated the unit, the installers were very polite, clean and tidy. I am very pleased with the product and I would recommend FGD to other people.
Mr E @ Elmwood lane Berwick on Elmet
We are pleased with the service, and the quality of finish so far, I look forward to seeing how they look after a few months. My only issues was the timings and delays, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you and indeed have already a few times or use you again.
Mr R D @ Stowmarket
Following the installation of our "double glazed curtains" we would like to say we are delighted with the result. The amount of light now coming into the living room is so different, we are also pleased with the amount of noise they keep out, We are glad we had them double glazed. Paul was a good ambassador for the firm and did an excellent job.
Mrs J @ Childer Crescent Little Sutton Cheshire
We had been looking for ages for the solution to fill two large spaces leading from the house to our new Orangery. From the moment Gary showed us the product at Partridge Farm we knew it was just what we wanted. A year later and we are still delighted. We broke one of the glass handles the other day and they have just left after fixing a replacement FOC. Hows that for service?
Mr M W
The service I received from FGD was professional and prompt from the initial on site survey through to installation and completion. Added to this the finished product has exceeded my expectations. It has enhanced my home with style and individuality, and enabled me to make use of the space in a way that is ‘unique’.
Mr H @ Baldock
We are very pleased with the glass curtains, which do what we want them to - separate the house and conservatory, meeting building regs, but as unobtrusively as possible. We were very happy with the service we received and the efficiency of those who fitted the curtains and we would have no hesitation in recommending both yourselves and the product.
Mr A B
Just a note to let you know how delighted we are with the sliding folding glazed panels installed by your firm at the rear of our house. Friends come into our kitchen now and are just amazed at how the same space has been transformed and opened up, simply by the addition of your glazed panels, providing a panoramic view looking out onto the garden. During warm summer days it was (and still is) such a joy to slide and park the panels to one side, bringing the garden into the kitchen dining area. We have a separate dining room in the house also, but haven't in fact used it since the day your windows were installed! Nobody wants to leave the newly created bright space with a full view of the garden and changing seasons, now almost making the other living rooms redundant. Downside is that I now have to labour away and keep the garden trim, tidy and colourful every weekend!
I must also take this opportunity to remark on the efficiency with which the panels were installed by two of your very pleasant and cheerful fitters, who arrived at exactly the appointed time on the agreed date as advised when we first ordered the panels. They worked diligently, ensuring the panels were up and running in the shortest possible time, all as per the agreed time schedule and budget, and left the place spotless on completion.
I'm quite sure that the overall effect, backed up by our enthusiastic demonstations of how they work, will result in a few more additions to your order book! We certainly have no hesitation in recommending your system.
Mr W @ elm Park road London N3
From the start to the finish we felt comfortable with your staff and installers. It was a product just as we had hoped and envisaged for our new House double glazed, frameless glass doors in 4 openings! Perfect. The doors are a talking point and every body comments on how good they look! They are amazed when we open them to show them off. When the doors were first installed the overall affect was more than we could have hoped for, just exactly what we wanted – on time – in budget and wonderful to look at, the project has been completed to our satisfaction. All your people from Gary to installers obviously take a pride in their work, which is much appreciated. Absolutely brilliant product that we wish you good luck with in the future. A very satisfied customer.

MR VH, Essex
Our windows look great and certainly get the wow factor with visitors... Fitters were great, polite, very quick very tidy and helpful in advice. Yes we would recommend..
P & J
I was very impressed with your facilties and how all the aspects of my purchase were explained. Your installers were thorough and polite and finished off the installation well, and would have no problem in reccommending you to others. Your aftercare was very good and prompt. All in alll very impressed with the doors and very pleased with my purchase. All my friends would like to be able to afford these kind of doors.
Mr G H
The installer was excellent. In spite of being let down by another member of the team he got on with with the job in a positive manner. Disruption was kept to a minimum and he cleared and tidied up. He demonstrated how to use the doors, ensured I knew how to operate them and answered any questions before he left. He is a credit to your company. Overall: I am very pleased with my frameless glass curtains and will recommend them to anyone interested.
Mr C, Bournmouth
We are absolutely delighted with the doors, they are so classy and modern. Paul (FGC) was excellent and knew his job. The workmanship is superb. All our friends and family think they are fantastic. Thank you once again.
MF
Just wanted to say a big thank you for coming up to Manchester from Kent to service our doors. My wife and I appreciated the service and continue to be really pleased with them. Lots of friends comment on how lovely they look and the window cleaner took your card this week, he is thinking of calling you! I would happily recommend you to anyone considering having frameless glass curtains. If there is anyone in the area who might want to see them, I am happy for you to contact me to make arrangements.
N & S, Manchester
We had 3 sets of doors installed in April. We had searched far and wide for bifold doors and those supplied by FGC were undoubtedly the most striking. We have had favourable comments from visitors and the doors are functioning well. Our dealings with FGC have been excellent and they have attended since the installation to make some adjustments. Although this is an expensive product, it looks stunning and has performed well. FGC worked closely with our builder and this ensured a straightforward installation. I would not hesitate to recommend the firm and the doors.
GB
How did we advise you on first contact? I was constructing a new extension and FGC were very helpful and understanding of the nature of the project. Updates to the original design (like addition of an extra door) were accomodated easily and efficiently
Installation - were the installers polite and did they clean and tidy up afterwards? All polite and as clean as necessary, although given the site was a work in progress with other builders / materials around there was limited tidying required. Having said that, subsequent visits to rememdy teething issues have been also very efficient and tidy.
Are you pleased with our frameless glass curtains? Yes and they are hugely popular with friends / guests when visiting.
Would you recommend us to other people? Yes - and I have done so on several occasions already
Do you have any advice for us? Keep up the good work ... and keep innovating.
Mr C R
It’s nearly a year since you installed our glass curtains. They have been really great, exceeding our expectations, particularly during the winter months when they were absolutely draught free. When they are fully open you really feel that the lounge is part of the garden, it all becomes one space. Many thanks, they were one of our best decisions.
Mrs L
We have had these doors for several months now and are very pleased with them. Our initial contact with the company was very positive, the structure and operation of the doors clearly explained. The installation was carried out very efficiently with no disruption and the installers were friendly, their work clean and tidy. Our friends have admired these frameless glass curtains and we would happily recommend them to anyone who was interested.
Mr JR
We are delighted with our FGC doors even though the construction of the room is still not yet completed - friends and family visiting our new Garden Room are all commenting vey positively on how amazing the doors look. With the beautiful summer we are having, it is a real pleasure to be able to open up the whole of the front of the room, enjoy the garden and let in the warm summer breeze. It has been a pleasure dealing with you from our first phonecall contact, through our factory visit and onto installation. We really did appreciate you getting the windows made and installed so quickly in order for us to be able to make use of the Garden Room during our son's wedding clebrations.
Mr & Mrs V, London
Basically the installation itself was done pretty quickly and efficiently – three guys turned up early in the morning and were done by lunchtime. Polite, tidy.
Mr BG
We chose FGC because we wanted something unique to connect both garden and our new room. Unique design, simple flawless construction, ease of use and durable construction all fit perfectly with what we wanted. FGC further enhanced the fit with great service and on site installation, answering any further queries we had very quickly.
Mr PM
Yes we are very pleased with the doors and would recommend them. Initial contact was done by our neighbour at Kingswood so cannot comment, however, the price we were initially quoted was incorrect and significantly lower than it turned out to be. Not sure why. We at Derwent only had a verbal quotation. The installation was carried out on time, very politely. Unfortunately as you know the handle broke and no spare. Reasonably clean. For 5 star review note that the paintwork on the front door and window sills does become coated with dust from the drilling and a 5 second wipe down would have enhanced the finished job. We did not receive any official acknowledgement of my initial cheque. So in summary, good product but admin could be improved.
