What Is the Best Material for a Patio Door?

Patio doors can be constructed using many different materials, just like windows. So, how do you know which is the best option when purchasing a new patio door for your home? The truth is that there are pros and cons that could be argued for any choice, so allow us to explain why we choose vinyl here at Frey Construction.

The Benefits of Vinyl Patio Doors

Vinyl continues to be the No. 1 material choice for both windows and patio doors for homeowners across the region. And, when you consider some of the benefits vinyl offers, it’s easy to see why.

Appearance

Vinyl patio doors may be plastic-based, but innovations in the material’s manufacturing make it possible for it to emulate the look of other materials, such as natural wood. Plus, vinyl doors are typically available in a wide range of interior and exterior colors/finishes, for a look that perfectly suits your taste and complements your home.

Durability

Vinyl can stand up to the harshest elements, like torrential rains, heavy snow and ice, and even hail, without peeling, flaking, rotting, or fading. Vinyl is also resistant to scratching, denting, and warping.

Value

Vinyl is rather well known as a more cost-effective solution than other materials, such as wood or fiberglass. Vinyl patio doors offer effective energy efficiency, longevity, and easy maintenance, all at an affordable price point.
