Patio doors are great additions to any home. Not only do they extend your living space to the outdoors, but they also serve as focal points for your room. You have a few questions in your head once it’s time to replace your existing doors, and we’re here to answer them.
Renewal by Andersen® of Rapid City, your French doors installation experts answer your frequently asked questions about patio door replacement.
You have two choices when it comes to patio doors – swing-out french patios and sliding doors. Both are great choices, but they have key differences and unique qualities on how they function.
French patio doors swing open and require ample floor space for it to operate properly. It’s the better choice if you have a sprawling porch area that connects your interior and outdoor spaces, and if you want a more traditional-looking focal point for your home.
A sliding patio door, on the other hand, slides open on a track either to the left or right side. They don’t require extra floor space which makes them a better choice for smaller spaces. While they take longer to install, their straightforward aesthetics and simple operation make them the preferred patio door for modern and contemporary homes.
We certainly can! If you’re looking to shake things up and switch from a French patio door to a sliding one and vice versa, we can simply take out your old doors and replace them with a brand new one in your preferred style. You don’t need to allocate any extra door space since the dimensions of the new door will be the same as your old one.
Many of the homeowners we worked with like customizing their new patio doors with finishes that make them match their existing windows. These include wood finishes, hardware such as eye-catching door knobs and levers, and grilles. French patio doors usually make use of the former while we can fit transom windows on sliding patio doors.
