Create More Indoor-Outdoor Space With A Patio Door

You need to use any garden space you have at home to its fullest this spring and summer because this warmer weather won’t be with us for long.

If the two areas effortlessly flow with each other, you’ll be so inclined to keep heading for the great outdoors, something that can be accomplished after the installation of a patio door.

Home and garden will become one and the same any time the patio door is opened, also making your interior feel more spacious than it’s ever done.

How is a patio door defined?

It’s a stone-cold classic, an external sliding door featuring at least two glass panels (a four-panelled solution is our widest design) and largely installed to create an access point to not just gardens, but patios and terraces too.

Whereas a hinged door opens in or out, a patio door doesn’t, working via a sliding mechanism. So it will take up very little space inside your property and you won’t need to be concerned about a strong gust of wind blowing it open and causing damage to the product.

It will fill your house with added light, warmth, and when it’s needed most, ventilation.

What makes it different from a French door?

The lack of an inward or outward opening is one difference and a patio door generally has larger glass expanses due to its slimmer frame.

If you see an aluminium-constructed patio door, you will understand what we mean about the slenderness of it in comparison to a French door, with its incredible sightlines maximising any outdoor view.

Upon the closer alignment of home and garden, as a result of the introduction of a patio door, you can live a more open-plan lifestyle.

How to dress a patio door

Of course, patio doors can be left bare, but you can dress them up with curtains or blinds too, drawing them shut come nighttime or when privacy is needed.

For a blind that you can easily roll out of the way in the daytime, try some roller blinds, or add some layering to their design with a light fabric curtain that’s large enough to cover the full patio door.

Any patio door treatment should be customised so that it fits perfectly and doesn’t affect the movement of the door, nor ends up dragging across the floor and becoming frayed.
