The Secret To A More Spacious Home Is A Patio Door Installation

The Secret To A More Spacious Home Is A Patio Door Installation

Summer is just around the corner and the, hopefully, gloriously warm weather should be fully embraced at home, both inside the building and outside in your garden.

Joining up the two destinations will give your house a perfect summery feel, which will materialise if you have a patio door that you can casually leave open during those nicest of days.

This opening will also make your home surroundings feel roomier too because of how a patio door invites the outdoors, indoors.

How is a patio door characterised?

Patio doors work in a sliding fashion and tend to be fitted so that they provide an exit from homes or extensions into gardens, terraces and patios.

A two-panelled design is what most patio door owners have, but Visual can configure three and four panelled versions, and due to them having no inward or outward opening sashes, they can’t blow open in windy conditions, nor will they occupy any internal or external space.

Being able to use them for ventilation will be a blessing during a heatwave and you’ll have way more light grace your home.

How does it vary from a French door?

Its sliding mechanism is one difference as a French door’s double opening opens in and out, and a patio door design contains more glass than frame.

Aluminium patio doors are even more slimline than modern UPVC patio doors, containing incredibly large glass panes and a virtually unnoticeable profile, providing you with one amazing view.

There will be more closeness between your home and garden each time a patio door is used to open the property.

How do you dress a patio door?

Not with too much difficulty is the honest answer. Curtains or blinds are the two most popular treatments for patio doors to give them an added touch of glamour and offer you some privacy when you want it.

A set of roller blinds will enable you to quickly cover the glazed sections and do the opposite first thing in the morning. For something more layered, choose a light fabric curtain that you can draw to ward off excess light.

Whoever you buy your chosen covering from, ensure that they custom-fit it so that it doesn’t disturb the opening of the doors.
