Patio Sliding Doors

Patio and garden sliding doors dramatically increase both ventilation and natural light, while allowing easy access to the outside. Our doors are extremely energy-efficient, low maintenance and can be customer designed per your request as they include a variety of colors, moulds and panel arrangements which will add a unique and charming look and feel to your Greater Toronto Area Home.

Configuration Details of Patio Doors

One of the qualities of a high-end vinyl sliding entry door is the degree of quality of the sashes as a weaker sash can cause deformities thus decreasing the insulation. With our metal reinforced sashes, our doors are rigid and energy efficient. Our door tracks are comprised of anodized aluminum which greatly increases their strength and durability, while a metal or nylon roller wheel provides effortless and smooth glide along the tracks.

Combination Options

*All of our garden sliding doors are installed with a storm sliding screen to protect against insects dirt and debris.

Handle, Lock & Security Options

Security is a primary concern for any door so at WindowTech we offer a wide variety of single and double lock mechanisms with both thumb-turn and key features.

Both kick-locks and guardian locks are outstanding security features as they compliment the handle lock hardware and security bar for additional security.
Carbon steel security bars prevent forced lifting the sliding doors from their trackers as they are attached to the door jamb to stop any forced movement.
