Patio doors enhance your home’s accessibility and energy efficiency. Properly installed, they prevent drafts and leaks while maximizing natural light and showcasing beautiful outdoor views.
To achieve these benefits, contractors must adhere to best practices during installation. This includes accurately measuring the existing frame, ensuring proper door fit, and using high-quality installation supplies.
Sliding Doors
Sliding patio doors offer homeowners a range of benefits that improve their living spaces. Their sleek aesthetic complements both traditional and modern home architectural finishes, enhancing a sense of harmony throughout the property.
They require less space to operate than hinged patio door styles. This means they work well for homes with limited room to accommodate a swinging door. They also allow ample natural light to enter, eliminating the need for artificial lighting during most of the day and lowering energy costs.
These doors are available in both double and single-panel options, allowing them to fit virtually any size of entryway. They feature a sturdy welded frame and multiple-pane Low-E glass to resist UV rays and reduce heat transfer, helping keep homes comfortable and energy efficient all year round.
Fiberglass patio doors are a great choice for Birmingham homes because they’re durable and require minimal maintenance. They resist warping, fading, and other common maladies that affect other materials. Plus, they have an insulated core that helps keep summer heat and winter cold out, reducing utility bills.
French Doors
French doors are a classic way to welcome natural light into your home. They are a popular patio door design that can enhance the appearance of your home and increase its functionality. With proper installation, these doors can cut down on your energy expenses while keeping the environment comfortable and healthy.
While they serve similar functions, French doors and patio doors are not the same. Patio doors have two panels that slide open, while French doors have multiple individual window panes that span the length of the door.
The windows in our French doors can be adorned with decorative grills and other features that enhance the appearance of your home. They are also built with durable materials that ensure their longevity and provide superior strength for protection against impacts and dents. Choose from a variety of frame colors, hardware finishes, and glass options to customize your new French door. Our Fiber-Classic mahogany doors blend timeless styles and a rich wood grain that complements a wide range of decor.
Bay Windows
Birmingham is a city rich in Southern history and culture. From music festivals that showcase regional heritage to the Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival, which features independent filmmakers from across the country, there’s plenty to enjoy about living here. If you’re looking for ways to enhance your home and add a bit of flair, look no further than bay or bow windows.
These unique windows are not only a statement of style, but they also increase interior space and welcome in abundant sunlight. They are available in a range of sizes and styles, including double-hung windows that feature two sashes that open by tilting inward. They’re also available as geometric windows that simulate a greenhouse, garden window that projects outward, and casement windows that slide open on a track. All of these styles are available in several different finishes and hardware options. Regardless of which style you choose, it’s important to follow best practices during installation to ensure that your new bay window is properly sealed and insulated.
Aluminum-Clad Wood
Aluminum-clad wood offers the beauty of wood inside while protecting your home from moisture and the elements outside. It is durable, energy efficient and easy to maintain for years to come.
Choose from a variety of paint and stain colors, grille options and hardware finishes for design versatility that complements any style of home. You can also add Rolscreen retractable screens to let in fresh air and sunshine while keeping insects out.
Wood interiors feature smooth surfaces ready for painting or staining to match your home’s unique decor. The exterior is clad in heavy-duty extruded aluminum – not roll-form aluminum – to provide greater strength and stability. Aluminum cladding is also tougher and more resistant to corrosion than vinyl cladding. JELD-WEN’s aluminum-clad wood patio doors include built-in blinds and shades for convenience, as well as self-storing Rolscreen insect screens that hide away when not in use. JELD-WEN’s patio door systems are also designed to blur the transition between indoor and outdoor living spaces with multi-slide options that stack horizontally or vertically.
