A well-designed patio door can be used to accentuate the architectural style of a home. Some homeowners also use sliding patio doors or French doors to create a seamless transition between the indoors and the landscaped outdoors. To further increase the patio door’s appeal, you can match it with windows. Here are some combination ideas to consider:
A non-operable window paired with a dynamic sliding patio door offers a modern look to any home. Flank both sides of your sliding door with fixed, large-sized windows for best results. This combination will frame an expansive view of your gorgeous backyard or outdoor pool while bathing the interiors with copious amounts of daylight.
Many homes feature double-hung windows and hinged patio doors. While combining the two styles may seem predictable, their differing points of operation actually create an eccentric flair for the interior. To take it up a notch, consider installing a seating area below the double-hung windows so you can relish the view of your patio without having to step outside.
You can tap into your home’s inner extravagance by crowning your patio door of any type with a transom window. This style of window fills in the space between the door and a tall ceiling, creating fullness and letting in extra light, making narrow hallways look inviting. Though patio doors typically come with basic rectangle-shaped transom windows, you can skirt around this convention by choosing an arched design that spans the length of your doors.
