Patio Door


I have a 6ft french door with center hinges, right inswing and sidelights that replaced a original 8 ft slider. I need to replace with same configeration but with wood interior and clad exterior. I can only find center opening or all clad.RO is 97 height 81. Need a good door but not designer price. Any ideas would very appreciated.

My patio door is a vetter.

I went through a mom and pop lumber company had them order it. (local lumber yard)

Re: Patio Door


I would put a 8ft Great Lakes Patio Door in. The measurements are 94 7/8 X 79 1/2. You could get in with woodgrain interior, vinyl exterior..Propbably run you around $1500.. IMO its one of the best patio doors out there...

Re: Patio Door


Did you look in the Anderson book for this type of assembly? Probably also around 1500 or so.
