The S2FP18RHF is a solid Meranti timber full pane sliding door unit measuring 1800mm wide by 2115mm high. Viewed from the outside, the left-hand leaf slides and the right-hand leaf is fixed — this is the Right Hand Fixed (RHF) configuration. The full pane design is rebated to accept a single large glass panel in each leaf, maximising light flow and creating a seamless visual connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Understanding RHF — Right Hand Fixed
The hand designation on sliding doors refers to which leaf is fixed and which slides, viewed from the outside of the building. On this unit:
-
Left leaf: Slides (the operating panel)
-
Right leaf: Fixed (stationary)
If you require the opposite configuration — right leaf slides, left leaf fixed — please see our LHF (Left Hand Fixed) variant. Always confirm your hand requirement before ordering, as sliding door units are made to order and cannot be reversed on site.
Optional Add-On: Factory Fitted Locks & Handle
Select the “Add Factory Fitted Locks and Handle” option on this product page to have a lock and handle set fitted at the factory before dispatch. This ensures correct alignment and eliminates the need to source and fit compatible hardware separately. If you select the standard option without add-ons, you will need to source and fit your own sliding door lock and handle set.
What Is a Full Pane Sliding Door?
A full pane sliding door features door leaves that are rebated to accept a single, full-height glass panel, maximising transparency and natural light. Unlike panel or louvre doors, full pane sliding doors create an open, airy feel and are commonly used as patio, veranda, and indoor-outdoor transition doors in South African homes. The sliding mechanism requires no swing clearance, making it ideal for tight spaces or high-traffic areas.
About Meranti Timber
Meranti is a dense, durable tropical hardwood widely used in South African door and window joinery. Kiln-dried Meranti offers excellent dimensional stability, good resistance to moisture when correctly sealed, and a fine, consistent grain that accepts paint and stain finishes well. It is a long-established standard in quality South African residential and commercial construction.
Glazing Notes
This unit is supplied without glass. Each leaf is rebated to accept a single full-height glass panel. We recommend consulting your glazier for the appropriate glass type and thickness — for a unit of this size, toughened or laminated safety glass is typically specified to meet South African building regulations. Glazing beads or silicone retention will be required to secure the glass once fitted.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is glass included?
No. The unit is supplied as a timber frame only. Glazing must be sourced and fitted separately by a glazier.
Are locks and handles included?
Not as standard. Select the “Add Factory Fitted Locks and Handle” option on the product page to include a factory-fitted hardware set.
Can this door be used as an exterior door?
Yes. With correct glazing, finishing, and maintenance, Meranti sliding doors are suitable for exterior patio and veranda applications. Ensure the unit is properly primed, painted or stained, and that the track and frame are correctly weatherproofed.
What does RHF mean?
RHF stands for Right Hand Fixed. Viewed from outside, the right leaf is fixed and the left leaf slides. See our LHF variant if you need the opposite configuration.

This unit is made to order and typically ships within 12–14 business days.
