Deciding whether you prefer Renewal by Andersen of New Jersey and New York Metro’s sliding replacement patio doors or one of its hinged styles is only the first step when you prepare to update a secondary entrance in your home. The major advantage of choosing custom-crafted replacement patio doors is the opportunity to address the “problem areas” that prompted you to choose now to update your New Jersey or New York metropolitan home.
Customization of your doors enhances beauty of your doors as well as the functionality, energy efficiency, convenience and comfort. The first step for many homeowners is considering how different door configurations influence panel size, construction material, color, finish and accessory choices.
When thinking about patio door solutions, most people envision multi-panel doors with one operating panel that slides horizontally or one “traditional” door that swings open from side hinges.
In reality, there are many possibilities. Depending on the size of the opening when we remove your existing patio entrance door, you may choose a three- or four- panel slider design where all sash move, or choose to make one or more panels stay stationary.
Alternatively, you may prefer a French style patio door, and choose the configuration that best fits your lifestyle and aesthetic vision.
Here are four possibilities, although there are other custom solutions.
#1. One operating panel and one stationary panel
#2. Two panels that swing-in or swing-out
#3. An “unequal” two-door configuration where one panel is wider than its companion to allow more room for foot traffic without having two operating panels
#4. A single door with its own handle and locking mechanism, and a smaller, second door that also opens for full-access when you don’t need a wider entrance
