CHOOSING THE RIGHT PATIO DOOR FOR YOUR HOME

Looking to beat the St. Louis summer heat in your patio? Create a smooth access from the inside of your home to your outdoor area with stylish and durable patio doors. To help you choose the right door for your patio, Renewal by Andersen® of St. Louis suggests the following steps:

Choosing The Right Patio Door For Your Home

Select a Style

There are many styles to choose from when it comes to patio doors. One of the most commonly used designs is sliding doors. These are large glass panes fixed on a frame. The panels glide left or right along the track. Sliding glass doors are ideal space savers because of their orientation. With this style, you won’t have to worry about any indoor or outdoor furniture or décor blocking the doorway.

Swinging patio doors are also popular options today. Most homes use hinged French doors because of their elegance and class. When you choose swinging doors, always allow appropriate space for opening.

Choose Durable and Energy-Efficient Materials

Your new patio doors should withst and everyday use and different weather conditions. Picking the right framing material and glass option can lead to great savings in terms of repair and energy efficiency.

For long-lasting performance against elements, sliding and French doors from Renewal by Andersen® of St. Louis are made of our durable Fibrex® material. Our composite material has the strength of wood combined with the low maintenance feature of vinyl. It is also resistant to rot and decay. Fibrex is also a great insulator. We also use High-Performance™ Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass, our most energy-efficient glass package available.

Pick Stylish and Functional Add-Ons

For your patio doors in St. Louis, consider curb appeal and protection. The colors, finishes, and hardware that you choose should complement the theme of your patio and your home’s interior.

"Very pleased with installation of six windows and a ProVia entry door. I love the look of the windows and door. I am pleased that my wife is thrilled with the look of the door. She is very pleased that the bronze color fits in well with the color of the brick."

"I just had my Renewal by Andersen windows installed and couldn’t be happier, the entire process went very smoothly. The windows are high quality and look great. But the installers Roy, Zack and Jordan were the stars, they introduced themselves upon arrival walked me thru everything they were going to do and when they finished took me to each window to make sure I was completely satisfied. They were clean and courteous and I would definitely recommend and have them work in my home again."

"Wonderful experience with knowledgeable, competent employees. We had Andersen windows in a previous house & didn’t even consider anything else this time. After replacing our patio door almost two years ago, we replaced all our windows this year. What a difference over builder-grade windows, especially in the really cold temperatures we’ve had this year. Andersen windows may be a little more expensive than other brands, but they are top quality."
