4 Easy Steps to Achieve the Patio Door of Your Dreams

Your patio door plays a big role in defining your outdoor space. Its purpose extends beyond protecting your property: it also enhances the beauty of your home and sets its character. With the wide selection of patio doors available today, homeowners now have the flexibility to create the kind of door that suits their personal taste and complements their home’s architecture.

Renewal by Andersen® of Central Pennsylvania gives you the freedom to fully customize your patio doors in State College, PA in four simple steps. Here’s how we help you achieve the patio door of your dreams:

  1. Select Your Door Type

Whether you own a modern, minimalist home or a charming, French-inspired one, you will find the ideal door at Renewal by Andersen of Central Pennsylvania. You can choose from the following options:

  • Gliding – Save space either inside or out, as this type of door has at least one panel that glides smoothly past another door panel.
  • Hinged Inswing – This door is ideal for decks, balconies, and other smaller areas for its space-saving features.
  • Hinged Outswing – This type features panels that open outward, giving you more usable space inside the room.
  • Sidelights and Transoms – Expand your hinged French doors in Reading, PA by combining classy elements such as sidelights, transoms, and stationary door panels.
  1. Choose Your Glass

When it comes to insulation and energy efficiency, not all types of glass perform the same. Some types filter out certain kinds of light. Our Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass, for instance, blocks unwanted solar heat while still allowing light to pass through. Renewal by Andersen of Central Pennsylvania offers a wide array of glass options—one of the most extensive in the industry.

  1. Choose Your Interior and Exterior Options

Of course, you also have a say in the exterior and interior colors of your door, as well as the trim. Our trim is available in 11 colors. Made of Fibrex ® material, you never have to worry about fading, flaking, blistering, chalking, or peeling no matter the climate. Our doors’ interiors, on the other hand, are available in unfinished stain-grade pine or a long-lasting white finish. Frenchwood® patio doors and Woodwright® windows are available in unfinished oak or maple while Perma-Shield® interior colors match their exterior.

  1. Add Upgrades and Other Design Elements

Staying true to our commitment to combine style and functionality, we present an array of hardware and accessories such as grilles, insect screens, and art glass to enhance your doors with. The works of celebrated architect Frank Lloyd Wright inspire the patterns on our art glass.
