Patio Door Installation or Replacement

A patio door is a type of door specifically designed for access to a patio or outdoor living area from the interior of a building, such as a house, apartment, or condominium. Patio doors are typically wide and feature large glass panels to provide unobstructed views of the outdoor space while allowing natural light to enter the interior.

Types of Patio Doors

Each type of patio door has its unique features, advantages, and considerations, allowing homeowners to choose the option that best suits their needs, preferences, and architectural style.

  • Sliding Patio Doors

    Sliding patio doors consist of one or more panels that glide horizontally along tracks. They are space-saving and provide easy access to outdoor living spaces like patios and decks. Sliding doors often feature large glass panels for maximum light and views.

  • French Patio Doors

    French patio doors consist of two hinged doors that swing open from the center. They add a touch of elegance to both interior and exterior spaces and allow for wide openings to outdoor areas.

  • Folding Patio Doors

    Folding patio doors, also known as accordion or bi-fold doors, consist of multiple panels that fold and stack neatly to one side when opened. They create a wide opening and seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living spaces.

  • Swinging Patio Doors

    Swinging patio doors, similar to French doors, feature one or more hinged panels that swing open from the side. They offer a classic and traditional look and are available in various styles, including single and double doors.

  • Multi-Slide Patio Doors

    Multi-slide patio doors consist of multiple panels that slide and stack behind one another to create large openings. They provide expansive views and are ideal for maximizing indoor-outdoor living spaces.

Typically, bay windows are installed as a three-panel frame with a picture window assorted in the middle. The two side panels are not stationary and allow you to open them if the airflow is your priority. At Standard Windows and Doors, we know what configurations and styles will best match the architectural design of your home. This is important since bay windows can come in a vast variety of designs. Contact us today to get started finding the best window for your needs!

Picture windows are stationary windows, which means they do not open or provide airflow. Think of a picture frame, hence where this unique style got its name. While they’re not the best option if you’re looking to contribute to the flow of fresh air in your home, they’re something to keep in mind if you’re looking to improve the amount of natural light in certain rooms. There is a variety of window styles that are best suited for your home. Give us a call today for more information.

Casement windows are a fantastic way to improve the curb appeal of your home. Like picture windows, they provide an unobstructed view of the outdoors and a tremendous amount of natural light to whatever room they’re in. However, they possess the incredibly useful ability to crank open to allow airflow into your home. For a crank window to accurately be called a casement window, the window must be hinged at the sides and open outward, almost like a door with a cranking mechanism. This allows airflow into your home and is ultimately easier to clean and maintain, mostly due to the fact that these windows don’t have sashes that you’d need to worry about. Awning windows are very similar in style but they are hinged at the top. Give us a call to learn more about these two window styles and their differences.

What classifies a window as double-hung is its unique ability to open both the bottom and top sash. The sashes, or the panes on your window that actively move when you open your windows, can also be tilted for ease of cleaning. You can move both sashes up and down as you wish, giving you various options to optimize air-flow efficiency.
