Update Your Home with Modern Patio Doors

Let the Light in with Patio Doors

The best patio doors bring in natural light and promote easy access to the back garden. They can provide an added layer of security if you pick the right one and they add a touch of character to your home. If you’re wondering if we have the best patio door set for you, just come on in to our showroom. We have all kinds of options.

What are the Best Patio Doors?

When choosing your patio doors, your existing structure may dictate which are the best patio doors for your home. Using the existing set up is the cheapest but you will have your patio doors for a long time so taking an extra moment to think about it will make sure that the best patio doors are the ones that are right for you regardless of the style. If you have French doors now and want to replace them with bi-fold doors or sliding patio doors, it may be necessary to remove brickwork and install a longer lintel.

In the picture with the green kitchen, bifold doors were the best patio door choice for this customer to open up the big open plan space to the garden.

Modern patio doors have revolutionised the way we connect the indoors and outdoors of our homes. Advancements in technology and design have made patio doors more functional, stylish and energy-efficient. Among the most popular modern patio doors are bifold, French, and sliding doors. Let’s look at these types of doors and the benefits of aluminium and uPVC materials for patio doors.

Bifold doors

Bifold doors are a popular choice for modern homes and are becoming increasingly popular. These doors consist of several panels that fold together when opened, creating an expansive opening. Bifold doors are highly versatile and can connect different home areas, such as the living room and patio or the kitchen and the garden. They offer a contemporary, elegant look that adds value to any home. They can also provide unobstructed views of the outdoors, bringing natural light into the home.

French doors

French doors have existed for centuries, but modern designs have improved their energy efficiency and functionality. Two doors open from the middle, providing a classic and elegant look. French doors are versatile and can be used in various settings, from formal dining rooms to casual outdoor spaces. They are popular because of their ability to create a classic look and provide excellent natural light. They are also cost-effective and ideal for replacing a window, as they can be fitted under the same lintel.

Sliding doors

Sliding doors are another popular option for modern patios. They consist of one or more large glass panels that slide along tracks to open and close. Sliding doors are highly versatile and can connect any indoor and outdoor space, making them ideal for small or large rooms. They offer a sleek, modern look that can add value to any home. They also provide unobstructed views of the outdoors, allowing you to enjoy more light and scenery. They are ideal for areas where you don’t want to occupy space when the doors open.

Benefits of Aluminium and uPVC materials for patio doors

When choosing the material for your modern patio doors, you have two main options: aluminium and uPVC.

Aluminium

Aluminium is a highly durable and long-lasting material resistant to corrosion, weathering and warping. It is also very lightweight, which makes it ideal for large patio doors. Aluminium patio doors offer excellent thermal insulation, which helps to reduce energy bills and keep your home comfortable year-round. They are also highly customisable, allowing you to choose from various colours, finishes and designs.

uPVC

uPVC is a highly versatile and low-maintenance material ideal for modern patio doors. It is lightweight, solid, durable, and resistant to weathering, rotting, and fading. uPVC patio doors offer excellent thermal insulation, which can help to reduce energy bills and keep your home comfortable year-round.
In conclusion, modern patio doors offer many benefits, including energy efficiency, functionality, and style. Bifold, French, and sliding doors all provide unique features that can enhance any home. When choosing the material for your patio doors, aluminium and uPVC are both excellent options, each with its unique benefits. Ultimately, the choice of material will depend on your personal preferences, budget and home style.
