A properly functioning patio door can make your home feel bright and airy, but unfortunately, this feature can become damaged and inefficient over time. Sports balls and accidents with lawn chairs can cause bad breaks, and time takes its toll on patio doors. Regardless of the cause, there are many reasons why a person might want to replace their patio door. Some of the most common reasons include aesthetics, functionality, and repair damage. Other reasons include maximizing natural light and energy efficiency.
Premium vinyl construction and high-performance glass are two reasons to consider a Pella multi-slide patio door. These doors are available in various configurations, from single panels to 10 panels, and they can be stacked, pocketed, or insulated. In addition to their attractive design and smooth operation, these patio doors come with a concealed dual-point locking system. They are ideally suited to cold climates. For added security, these doors are constructed with EnduraClad aluminum cladding.
There are two main types of patio doors: inswing hinged and outswing. Both types of doors swing open and close. Outswing hinged doors are the most practical option if interior room space is limited or if you have an overhang. Bifold and sliding patio doors are similar in appearance, but they open more widely. You can also install a traffic door on your bifold door to make it easier to get into and out of your home.
French doors are stunningly wide doors, but they are also the most common type of patio door. Patio doors slide horizontally to open and close, so they can be a bit larger than standard French doors. Choose the size of your patio door based on the available space. When choosing a style, make sure to keep in mind that the space inside and outside your house will determine how large the patio door needs to be. Then, choose the style that best suits your needs.
The next type of patio door you should choose is the one that will best complement the look of your home. French doors come in many styles and designs. Sliding patio doors consist of two or three glass panels with an operable panel that slides up and down on a track. Sliding doors allow a lot of natural light into your home. And because they're usually made of glass, they won't cause any problems with condensation or rust.
Another difference between a French door and a patio doors is the frame style. French doors feature a wider frame, while sliding glass doors are narrower. While sliding glass doors tend to be more functional, they may not be as attractive when they're placed next to a larger door. Sliding doors may be a better option if you need more space for furniture or if you host parties with heavy foot traffic. French doors are usually larger than sliding glass doors, but there are manufacturers that offer oversized sliding glass doors.
