Frenchwood Gliding Patio Door Features

Low-Maintenance

The sill has an extruded aluminum track, with a stainless steel cap that resists stain, rust and denting and an attractive wear-resistant, heat-baked finish in a neutral gray color.

The exterior frame is covered with rigid vinyl that maintains an attractive appearance while minimizing maintenance. The wood frame is treated with a water-repellent preservative for long-lasting protection and performance.  

A flexible vinyl weatherstrip provides a positive seal between the frame and panels.

Smooth Operation

Glass

SmartSun™ Tempered Glass

SmartSun™ glass gives you the benefits of Low-E glass, plus it helps shield your home from the sun's heat by filtering out harmful UV rays.

Ideal for: All Climates

SmartSun™ with HeatLock Coating is available on 400 Series products. This prevents more heat from escaping your home but slightly reduces the visible light transmitted through the glass.

smartsun-4x

Low-E / Low-E4® Tempered Glass

Low-E Glass reflects heat in the summer and helps to retain interior heat in the winter.

Ideal for: All Climates

Low-E4® with HeatLock Coating is available on 400 Series products. This improves the U-Factor performance of the window but slightly reduces how much light comes through the glass.
