Tempe Sliding Patio Doors
New sliding glass doors with dual-pane glass, smooth rollers and a sill that keeps dust and rain out.
The sliding glass door to the backyard is often the biggest piece of glass in a Tempe home, and the one that takes the most use. Old aluminum doors drag on worn rollers, leak dust at the seals and let in a lot of afternoon heat.
A new sliding patio door comes with dual-pane tempered glass, new rollers and a sill designed to shed water, so it glides easily and shuts tight during monsoon storms.
If the opening allows, you can also step up to a wider multi-panel door. Changing the opening's size is structural work, so we check what the City of Tempe requires first.
A standard sliding door replaced in the same opening.
New rollers and a sloped sill so the door glides and drains.
