As impressive as they look, traditional, old-model sliding glass doors are actually inconvenient and energy wasting. They didn’t do a heck of a lot for insulation and drafts when first installed and those old patio doors certainly aren’t re-writing the record books now. The wood was known to buckle. The panes can crack. The list goes on and on. Over time patio door technology has improved and borrowed a page out the playbook for replacement vinyl windows. “Modern technology” has created energy efficient sliding glass doors that rely on PVC frames and double pane glass.
Conversely, double French and conventional patio doors are also options to consider.

Engineered with quality rollers that provide an impressively smooth and quiet operation, it also has superior energy performance with SunCoat Low-e glass coating.
The optional screen is top-hung for smooth operation to minimize jams. Make it your own with grids, decorative glass or expand your view with transoms. Not only that, but the beautiful door handle comes in seven finishes and with an optional exterior keyed lock. Add the optional SmartTouch bolt for more security.
Ultra…Everything
It doesn’t end there. If the Essense line doesn’t suit your needs, consider going Ultra. The Milgard Ultra Series fiberglass patio doors are built to last. Through a careful design process, Milgard introduces a patio door more resistant to heat, bugs and rot to help withstand the harsher sides of Mother Nature. Ultra Series patio doors stay true through almost any environment. Because it’s made from glass fibers, the frame expands and contracts at approximately the same rate as the insulated glass it holds. This puts less stress on the seals, reduces the chance for seal failure and allows for a clear, fog-free view.
