It can be hard to decide which patio door to get for your home, especially with the selection of either sliding, swinging, French or bi-folding. It all really comes down to the design and layout of your home so here are three things to consider.
Space
Swinging and French doors both need quite a bit of room to open. When you know the location where you want your door to be, consider the furniture inside and outside of your home. If the space is tight, it might be an idea to consider a sliding door.
Design
Depending again on the space, all the doors provide a difference in access. Some have a large doorway and some have slightly smaller. Folding patio doors for example allow a lot of outside light to enter and can function like a removable wall.
Material
Choose a material that compliments your home and one that is easy to maintain. Vinyl and aluminium doors weather well and rarely need re-painting. As for wood, it looks amazing but needs regular maintenance and care.
