3 main reasons you need a patio door replacement

Before and after: a swinging patio door replaced with a sliding patio door
A swinging patio door we replaced with a 6100 Series sliding patio door.

Having a functional patio door is important because it keeps cool air in your home and keeps intruders out. Over time, patio doors wear down and need to be replaced. Here are a few reasons why patio door replacement is a good idea if your patio door is old:

1. Ever-increasing energy bills - Good quality patio doors have insulating material that helps reduce your energy bill every month. If your energy bills keep increasing every month, then it's time for patio door replacement in Campton Hills. Energy-saving patio doors have a superior thermal insulating capacity that keeps the house warm during the winter months and cold during the summer months.

2. Difficulty in opening or closing doors - When your patio doors are exposed to environmental elements such as rain, it can destroy low-quality hinges on patio doors, making it difficult to open or close the door. Also, if you have a sliding-type patio door, then dirt starts accumulating and affects the door's primary function. If you notice that you have a hard time opening or closing your door, patio door replacement is a good idea.

3. Lack of security - It's important for your family to feel safe and comfortable at home. Unfortunately, old patio doors can be broken into if someone pick-locks the door. If you want to secure your home, our double-active sliding patio doors offer more security and locking options. These patio doors are durable and immune to rotting and corrosion.

At L.J. Neal & Sons, we provide double sliding patio doors that can be opened from the left- or right-hand side. This allows you to be flexible with your furniture arrangement and makes access to the patio area much easier.
