I was sure that Screwfix did rads longer than 1200 but other than the
300mm ones which can be got up to 1400 I can only see 1200 as being the longest . Can anyone suggest an alternative source for rads with a comparable price?

We got a good supplier through these people
Any plumbers merchant. I bought mine from a small merchant who didn't have room to hold any stock, and since they ordered direct from the manufacturer, you could have any size the manufacturer did next day (or same day if you ordered before 8am). You could have any other size made up in about a week. I ordered some triple panel ones with bottom entry connectors (didn't want valves and pipework visible on the sides). I thought they would be special order, but they are standard items at the manufacturers and were delivered next day.
Places like screwfix tend to pick a limited number of sizes to stock, far fewer than the manufacturers routinely make.
You know, I quoted this morning for a 1500x600 rad. I expected them to be in the Screwfix book, but as you say, they only go up to 1200. These look to be around the cheapest from a quick Gooogle:
Though I'd think my local (large) Plumbers Merchant (Pochins in Leicester) would be cheaper. Alan.
Toolstation?
Currently looking for radiators too and I can confirm, this outfit appears to be cheapest I've found for the wider sizes. Places like Screwfix and B&Q do offer much cheaper radiators at smaller sizes but as the original poster found out, they don't do the big ones.

Their website is a bit weird. Tried to look at Gerkros 500mm High Double Convector Radiators and it listed everything except radiators!
I'm going to see what price the plumber can get before comitting.

Been there, done that and the answer is "No"... as another posted
eBay is even worse!!
