How to Get the Perfect Patio Door for Your Home

Having the right patio doors for your home can bring many benefits, including a boost in visual appeal. It will serve as an elegant entrance from your patio into your home, but it can also help reduce energy consumption while providing a great view from the inside. To achieve this, you’ll need proper planning to ensure that your patio door is worth the investment. Renewal by Andersen® of New Jersey explains how it can be done:

Proper Measurements

Before looking for the style and material you want for your patio doors, the doorway where it will be installed must be considered. Getting its measurements will help narrow down your options in choosing the right. But if you’re replacing an existing patio door, just note down both the horizontal and vertical measurements for the door frame, making sure that they’re measured properly to avoid unwanted costs.

Perfect Style

With our services, we’ll help you choose the perfect patio door based on your personal preferences, available space and desired privacy levels. These are three of the most common styles:

• French Doors – A popular style that includes several smaller glass panels divided into a grid, which add a timeless and elegant style to any home.

• Sliding Doors – Sliding patio doors typically include two panels, with one of them fixed while the other slides on tracks.

• Swinging Doors – More commonly known as glass patio doors, they come as a pair with at least one hinged door with the second door fixed.

Picking the Right Material

There are a lot of materials to choose from for your new patio doors. You’ll also notice that most incorporate either a single large panel of glass or multiple smaller glass panels, which help create a pleasant visual transition into your patio from inside your home.

Wood is a common material to use for patio doors, since it adds a sense of refinement and history to any patio entrance. Aluminum or steel are also popular choices, and they’re much easier to maintain. Our products, however, are made from Fibrex®, which is a great material that’s twice as strong as vinyl and can be made to mimic other materials. Choose Fibrex to make the most out of your patio doors!
