Patio Doors

A Guide to Buying Patio Doors
Installing Patio Doors in your Home is a Great Home Improvement Method. As the name implies, patio doors connect a certain part of your house to your patio. They often provide a great view to the beautiful scenery outdoors. There are hundreds of designs of patio doors to choose from and if you are new to installing them in your house, this article will serve as your guide on choosing the type of patio doors that fit your needs.

Patio Doors

Patio Door Materials
Patio doors are made up of an outer frame and individual door frames. They are made from different materials from wood, metal, PVC, plastic polymer, or a composite of different materials. Traditionally, patio doors that come with timber frames are considered to be beautiful. Wood such as oak or pine is used to make this type of patio door. However, timber frame patio doors often suffer from the abuse of many weather elements such as the sun and rain so they often need regular maintenance. If you are looking for more durable patio doors, your options include those made from PVC, metal, and plastic as they are not porous thus they last longer.

Thermal Performance

Most modern patio doors come with double glazing, which gives them better thermal performance. Double glazing provides adequate sealing thus providing better insulation to your home. Double glazing does more than just provide thermal buffer and insulation but it also provides noise buffer against loud outdoor sounds.

There are many standards for double glazed patio doors and look for those that come with U-value verification and Window Energy Rating. Patio doors with low U-value provides better thermal performance than those with higher ones.

Security Features
While it is important to choose the quality of the frames and glass, another consideration when getting a patio door is its security features. Unfortunately, some patio doors can be locked from both the inside and outside. The thing is that patio doors also provide access to thieves into your home so make sure that you opt for patio doors that have locks only from the inside. It is also good if you choose patio doors with multiple door systems for added security so that they are difficult to break into.

Installing patio doors is a great way to improve the value of your home. Choosing patio doors for your home should not be based on aesthetics alone. You also need to think about its functionality and performance so that you can get the most out of it.
