ABOUT PATIO DOORS
Patio Doors are usually made of wood, but may also be made of fiberglass, aluminium, or steel. Security is an important consideration in choosing a patio door, and multi-point locking systems are available. Patio doors may consist of simple fixed and hinged panels, they may have bypass sliding operation, or they may slide and fold. Slide and fold patio doors have the benefit that they can open the whole side of the room to the outside space.
The leading patio door manufacturers, described below the panel of sponsored links, have comprehensive websites, with information on all aspects of patio doors, including online catalogs, specifications, colours and materials for patio doors, and care and maintenance of patio doors.
