Sliding Patio Door

A sliding vinyl patio door slides smoothly back and forth, making it a great addition to a room without expending any space. Sliding patio doors are also popular choice for many homeowners because they allow a lot of light to flow into the home and don’t protrude out into the living space. This makes them a good fit for rooms where space is limited. You can choose from standard rail or the wider look of a French sliding patio door with 2, 3 and 4 panel configurations.

French Sliding Patio Door

French style patio door offers an elegant touch to any home, with wider stiles and rails providing a classic, traditional look. A French sliding door operating style is a great solution for rooms with tight spaces. Consider adding grids patterns for decoration or side lights for additional daylight or venting.

In-Swing French Patio Door

Swinging French door are an elegant choice and come in two operating styles: In-Swing or Out-Swing. For In-Swing doors, the hinge is located on the inside of the house and the door swings inward. These work well in areas with ample room to allow the door to swing freely without bumping into furnishings and help to maintain usable exterior space.

Out-Swing French Patio Door

French Out-Swing patio doors offer the same look of wider stiles and rails that you’ll see in a sliding French door, but they swing outward on hinges that are located on the exterior of the home. This allows more room for furniture inside and creates a clean look to the interior door frame. This is a great solution for expansive patios with available space to accommodate the external door swing.

Folding Patio Door

A folding patio door system can open a wide area to the great outdoors. The system operates accordion-style, which means each section slides on an overhead track and neatly folds away for full access. Folding patio door is available in several configurations, ranging from two to eight leaves.

Materials
Even though the design options are almost endless, for construction of Patio Doors comes down to fiberglass, vinyl, aluminum, steel, wood and clad-wood offerings. Your choice depends on what factors are most important to you.

  • Fiberglass
    This material features both the feel and look of genuine wood, right down to the knots and cracks, with less upkeep. In fact, these doors are built to consistently withstand the rigors of any climate - hot or cold, wet or dry.
  • Clad-Wood
    Like a coat of armor, cladding is a strong layer of metal on wood, providing extra protection and low maintenance benefits with no exterior painting required.
  • Vinyl
    A strong plastic material that is used for its durability, energy efficiency and ability to stand up to the elements. This material will never fade in color, flake, peel or rot.
  • Aluminum
    A lightweight and strong material that is a cost effective alternative to wood. This material is corrosion-resistant and performs well in most climates.
  • Wood
    Wood comes from trees that grow in a variety of species, such as fir, pine, mahogany or alder. Each species has a range of characteristics, like grain, color and sap content, which contributes to its unique appearance.
  • Steel
    An economical option, steel offers strength and durability and is a good choice for most climates. These doors are also treated to deliver superior rust-resistance. They will require only minimal maintenance (in especially moist areas, they may require minor upkeep).
