Andersen Narroline 200 Balance Boxes
Comments (2)Skipslade, The balance system on most windows runs down the side of each operational sash. If your mounting blinds inside the jamb boxes I can't see you mounting them in that far to cause any issues with the balance system. Just keep the mounting brackets out as far as you can to the walls edge. The only way you would interfere with the balance system is if you mount the brackets inside the sash pocket. I wouldn't worry about hitting anything. Good Luck!!!...See MoreAndersen 200 vs. 400 series
Comments (42)I can't compare Andersen with Pella or any others, or the 200 series v. the 400 series, but I bought Anderson double hung windows and a sliding door, and I am sorely disappointed in them. I paid a LOT, esp. or the door. I had no choice but to get the top of the line because I had to get the bronze exterior color. The screens on the windows are flimsy. The hangers for the screen sliding door are plastic and break all the time. I've had problems with a new lock I installed on the sliding doors in December since December…. I would not buy Andersen again. But for all I know, the others are the same. I and so anti-corporate America right now. The greed is out of control; the mentality of cutting on quality in order to increase profits is anathema to me, but that's what they're doing, everywhere....See MoreAndersen Sliding Glass Doors- 100 Series or 200 Series
Comments (3)It seems this may not be a common question, so I'll share what I have figured out in case anyone else comes looking on this forum. I finally found a distributor who had a 100 series sliding door in their showroom that I could look at. It is a clear step down in how smooth the glide is from the 400 series. It doesn't roll with the ball bearings, and has the look/feel of an entry level door (which is what Andersen calls it, so I guess that is fair). I have not yet found a 200 series Narrow Line door that I can test out. My local Home Depot has a 400 series door, the one a little farther away has a Perma-shield door, but no narrow line. If anyone wants to chime in and comment on the functionality of a Narrow Line 200 series door, I would appreciate it! Thanks!...See MoreAndersen 100 vs 200 NL Series Sliding Patio Door
Comments (3)The 100 is hollow if I am not mistaken. https://www.andersenwindows.com/products/100-series-gliding-patio-door/ Both should work just fine from a functionality standpoint. Get the one that you like the look of at the end of the day though. You are, after all, going to be staring at it for years to come....See MoreJoseph M.
