3-Panel Sliding Patio Door
Comments (4)We had the same reaction to cost when looking at windows and doors over the years but have learned to see it from another perspective. We live in our homes for a long time, may be 20+ years. We are in the house at least 14 hours a day during the week and often 24 hours a day on weekends and holidays. The house needs to keep us relatively safe and comfortable. If possible, it ought to be a living space that we can enjoy. With that in mind, a $5000 slider really is not that expensive. Most of us change cars every 2, 3, 5 or 10 years? Each car is progressively more expensive, there is also the insurance, maintenance, gas and tires and yet we hardly notice the amount of cash invested. How many hours do we spend in a car? A good door once installed properly can last 20+ years easily. $5000 for a slider, installed, sounds reasonable if it includes appropriate low-E coating for your region and is filled with argon gas. We got the same estimate from a Milgard shop for a 9-ft opening. If this slider is of high quality and can reliably enhance your living environment for years to come, it will be worth every penny. Good luck!...See More2 panel shaker doors and 3 panel lami glass door-weird?
Comments (1)Whenever I see glass closet doors, they always seem to be in rooms with wood doors in the rest of the room, so I don't think they have to match. I like the look of glass closet doors and think it would look fine....See More3 panel patio sliding doors
Comments (14)kayce03 Folding are more expensive and they also obstruct the view more when closed. It's a myth. Not necessarily more expensive, you need to know where to look and shop around, I did and have factory direct quotes less than $1k/ft. They certainly don't obstruct the view more when closed, you need to select the right sized door and will obstruct the view no more than a slider....See Morebungalow interior doors: all 5 panel or some 3 panel accent doors?
Comments (18)My door got trimmed a bit to fit and get rid of some dings so the hinge mortises got trimmed off. Procrastinator that I am, I never got around to putting the pull hardware on and just used the hole left from the knob. There was a recessed cup pull I had my eye on to use though. It would have completely taken care of my knob hole. It would depend on what type of knob and lock set was on your door. One edge on each door will probably never be seen anyway once the trim is on....See MoreMittens Cat
