Choosing the perfect patio door for your home can significantly enhance both its aesthetic appeal and functionality. Whether you’re looking for a door that seamlessly connects your indoor and outdoor spaces or that boosts your home’s energy efficiency, Renewal by Andersen has got you covered!
In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore the different types of patio doors, their benefits, and why Renewal by Andersen should be your go-to for patio door replacement.
Types of Patio Doors
Frenchwood® Hinged Patio Doors trace their roots back to the original casement doors. They offer a blend of traditional elegance and modern energy efficiency. And the best part is: they swing wide open, providing a grand entrance to your patio. Ultimately, Frenchwood® Hinged Patio Doors are an excellent choice for homeowners who prefer a classic and sturdy appearance. However, it’s important to keep in mind that they do require extra floor space to operate.
Frenchwood® Gliding Patio Doors are an ideal solution if you want to save space in your living room. These doors offer the same elegance as hinged doors but slide smoothly on a track, saving valuable space for furniture and walkways. Their sleek design can enhance the contemporary look of any home while still maintaining the charm of traditional French-style doors.
Contemporary Gliding Patio Doors offer a more modern aesthetic. These doors feature large glass areas and narrow frames, providing an unobstructed view of the outdoors and allowing more natural light to shine through your home.
Benefits of Renewal by Andersen Patio Doors
Energy Efficiency
One of the standout features of Renewal by Andersen patio doors is their year-round comfort. In fact, our High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass is 56% more efficient in summer, helping you stay cool AND save money on energy bills. This glass also reduces water spots by up to 99% when activated by sunlight, making maintenance a breeze.
Durability
Our patio doors are built to last. The exclusive Fibrex® material we use in our doors combines the strength of wood with the low-maintenance features of vinyl. This proprietary material ensures that your doors won’t flake, rot, or blister, providing long-lasting performance and beauty for years to come.
Customizability
Renewal by Andersen offers a wide range of customization options for your patio doors. From elegant color finishes to stylish grill designs and hardware options, you can tailor your doors to match your home’s unique style.
Professional Installation
Our installation experts ensure that your patio doors are installed correctly and efficiently. With Renewal by Andersen, you can expect a comprehensive process that includes meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to customer satisfaction.
Tips for Choosing the Best Patio Door
Consider Your Home’s Style
When selecting a patio door, it’s essential to consider your home’s architectural style. For traditional homes, Frenchwood® patio doors can add a touch of elegance and timeless charm. Gliding patio doors, on the other hand, are perfect for modern homes with a contemporary design.
Think About Space
The amount of space you have is a major factor when considering a new patio door. If you have limited space, sliding doors are a practical choice as they don’t require additional floor space to open. Hinged doors, while beautiful, need more room to operate.
Focus on Energy Efficiency
Given the large glass areas of patio doors, it’s crucial to choose doors with high-performing glass to improve your home’s energy efficiency. Renewal by Andersen doors come standard with Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass, which helps regulate your home’s temperature and reduces energy costs.
Prioritize Durability and Maintenance
Choose patio doors that are durable and easy to maintain. Since Renewal by Andersen includes high-quality materials that can stand up to all types of weather conditions, you’re investing in a product that will last a lifetime.
