Is it Time to Replace Your Sliding Glass Patio Doors?

Glass patio doors are a great architectural feature for your house, making it easy to transition from inside to out while also allowing lots of natural light and fresh air into your home. Like most things, patio doors don’t last forever. If yours have seen better days, it might be time for replacement sliding glass patio doors.

Here are the top signs to look for.

• The doors are sticking. Sliding glass patio doors should do just that, slide. If it’s become more difficult to operate the doors, it could be due to warping or damage.
• It’s drafty. If you’ve noticed a spike in your energy usage and you feel a breeze in the room, it usually means the doors have developed an air leak.
• You see a gap. Over time the doors may warp due to inclement weather, or they may not have been properly installed.
• Condensation forms. It’s normal on the exterior, but condensation between the panes is not. It’s a sure sign the internal seal has broken and the inert gas has leaked out.

If your doors are old, you may also just decide it’s time for an update. It’s amazing what new replacement sliding glass patio doors can do for the appearance of your home.
