Living room to Conservatory doors

I'm looking to get new doors between my living room & conservatory. I currently have single glazed (drafty) double doors with windows either side.

I was thinking about replacing the doors & one window, with a slide & fold door. The opening will be 6ft wide, when the doors, window & wall below the window are removed.

The only slide and fold doors I've seen are made for external use, like these from Wickes http://www.wickes.co.uk/Oak-Veneer-Folding-Patio-Doors/invt/187478?WT.ac=SP100022

I was wondering if there was a cheaper alternative that would be draft proof.

Also, can this job be done by a competent DIYer.

Many thanks.
