If you’re fortunate to have a garden, we suggest you priortise convenient access to fully enjoy its benefits, especially with summer approaching.
By installing patio doors, you can unlock the true potential of your home, seamlessly connecting your indoor and outdoor spaces and establishing a harmonious flow between them.
Patio doors can be swiftly and efficiently installed, effectively blurring the boundary between indoor and outdoor living.
What makes a patio door?
A patio door slides open, and is often placed between a house and outdoor terraces, patios and gardens. The design is made up of large glass panels. While two panels are the standard, you can get larger versions made up of three or four panels at Amber Home Improvements.
They are very different from doors with hinges that have sashes that open either inwardly or outwardly. Instead, they open horizontally with a gentle slide, which means furniture can be placed in front of them without impacting access. You also don’t have to worry about them blowing open on a particularly windy day!
Once installed in your East Anglia home, you’ll be able to revel in a brighter, more inviting atmosphere. Patio doors are ideal for ventilation purposes too.
What is the difference between a patio door and a French door?
In addition to their strikingly different openings (French doors are a hinged door compared with sliding motion of a patio door), a patio door typically consists of more glass and less framework.
This effect is particularly pronounced when opting for patio doors crafted from aluminium, as their remarkably slender sightlines enhance the panoramic experience.
By improving the connection between your home and garden, we can help you create a modern open-plan feel.
The best way to style patio doors
Patio doors can be left well alone, as they are stylish enough already. However, if you wish to dress them up with blinds or lightweight curtains, they can bring a sense of elevated glamour to your home, in addition to increasing privacy.
Hanging lightweight, thin fabric curtains to cover the full glass expanse can form a stunning layering effect. Alternatively, you may choose roller blinds that can be easily rolled out of the way to invite natural light indoors.
We strongly suggest getting your chosen window treatment custom-made for your patio door’s exact measurements. This will prevent curtains draping along the floor, or impacting the door’s functionality.
As summer approaches, envision your home transforming into a more spacious haven, filled with radiant sunlight. You can view our range of UPVC and aluminium patio doors in our Norwich showroom, conveniently located for homeowners across East Anglia.
