5 Features and Benefits of Frenchwood® Gliding Patio Doors
There are two main types of patio doors available in Cincinnati: French and sliding. French doors are more traditional; they swing open and look great with wood frames and symmetrical grilles. Sliding patio doors, on the other hand, evoke a more modern aesthetic and work best with minimalist frames. They feature a space-saving opening mechanism and bigger, grille-free glass areas.
What if you want a traditional French door look, but with the space-saving benefits of sliding patio doors? We have a solution: Frenchwood® gliding patio doors. Here are the top benefits of this door style:
Space Saver: Compared to traditional French doors, Frenchwod gliding patio doors don’t require swing space to open. This gives you more freedom with your indoor or patio furniture placement. These patio doors can even be installed along a narrow hallway or a high-traffic area like the kitchen without being a hindrance.
Can Be As Wide As You Want: Frenchwood doors are extremely flexible when it comes to door width, perfect for homes with wide patios.
Energy Efficient and Increased Daylighting: The increased glass area makes for better daylighting, which makes your living space look and feel bigger, while also offering numerous health benefits to you and your family. In addition, our dual-glazed High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass options filter solar heat and UV rays without compromising the amount of visible light inside. Frenchwood doors also improve your energy efficiency by reducing your reliance on artificial lighting.
Complements Both Traditional and Modern Architecture: Choose different indoor and outdoor finishes on your patio doors, with the additional stainable pine, oak, or maple interior finishes. Whether your home is traditional or contemporary, these doors will blend perfectly.
Reliable and Long Lasting: Our Frenchwood gliding patio doors are low-maintenance, thanks to their vinyl sheath coating. They also operate very smoothly, gliding along two adjustable, self-lubricating tandem rollers that use steel wheels with ball bearings. With the Renewal by Andersen Limited Warranty, you’ll be enjoying the benefits of your Frenchwood door for many years.
