What is a patio door?

2-lite sliding patio door

Sliding patio doors also known as gliding doors and sliding glass doors are found in almost every home. They have a similar appearance but operate differently than a French door which swings in or outward. The operating glass panel of a sliding patio door glides on rollers on a track in the sill. This design provides great ventilation with the operating panel stored completely and safely out of the way when in the open position.

What patio doors are available at The Window Source?

Window Source patio doors come in both double and triple panel models. All double and triple insulated glass panels come with code compliant tempered safety glass in all panes. The vinyl gliding panel frames are reinforced with heavy gauge steel to make your door strong and durable and features a full interlocking meeting rail.

The sliding panel rides on a solid brass rolling system for easy operation. The threshold features a strong anodized aluminum sill cover to last a lifetime. You will enjoy the large open view from your new patio door.
