Gliding Frenchwood doors have the charm of traditional French stylings with the convenience of space-saving design. Learn about Andersen's best-selling gliding patio door.
The design features the old-world character of traditional French doors in a modern package, it's the perfect cost- and space-saving choice.
The Frenchwood Gliding door is made of a wood interior with a vinyl exterior for long-lasting beauty. Allow more natural light to enter through multiple panels and adjust with the option to add Blinds-Between-the-Glass.
Free EstimateThe 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.
Dual ball-bearing rollers on door panels provide smooth gliding operation with self-contained leveling adjusters.
Panel joints are mortise-and-tenon with patented dowel construction for maximum strength.
The unique Andersen® reachout locking hardware pulls the door panel snugly into the jamb for a weathertight seal and enhanced security.
The exterior of the wood door panel is protected with a low-maintenance urethane base finish in White, Sandtone, Terratone or Forest Green color. Panel interior surfaces are unfinished pine, oak or maple veneer. Low-maintenance prefinished vinyl White interiors are also available on units with White exteriors.
A six-pin key cylinder lock is available in styles and finishes that coordinate with hardware and allows the door to be locked and unlocked from the exterior.
Provides an extra measure of security when the door is in a locked position. Lock can be set so the door is fully closed or partially open to provide a secure venting position.
Grilles applied to the interior and exterior of the window with aluminum spacers between the glass create an authentic look.
Style your window with permanent exterior grilles and choose between permanent or removable interior grilles.
Removable interior wood grilles are secured via a fastener or grille clip and can be removed enabling you to easily clean the glass surface.
Grilles sit between the panes of glass for easy cleaning.
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.
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.
If you live in a cold climate, PassiveSun® glass allows the sun to heat your home.
Ideal for: Northern Climates
Sun glass has excellent thermal performance. This glass has a subtle tint that blocks out more heat from the sun.
Ideal for: Southern Climates

Sound-Reducing Glass

Patterned Glass
Let in light while obscuring vision and adding a unique decorative touch to your home.
The four styles included in our Classic Series panels represent major architectural design themes from the late 1800's through the 1930's. Their symmetric patterns are available in distinctive color schemes as well as colorless glass, and their caming may be finished with a gold tone, silver tone or antique patina.
Two designs influenced by 20th century American and European architectural schools feature striking visual patterns that evoke an extraordinary blend of art and nature.
All insect screens have a long-lasting fiberglass screen mesh with a charcoal finish and are color matched to the exterior of the door unless otherwise specified.
The insect screen is available for both two-panel doors and four-panel doors. Gliding insect screens have Delrin® injection-molded bottom rollers with self-contained leveling adjusters, providing smooth operation. Interior and exterior pulls and latch are provided.
The retractable insect screen is installed on the exterior of the door and opens side-to-side across the width of the opening. When the insect screen is not in use, it neatly retracts into a small canister mounted on the exterior of the door. The retractable insect screen canister is available for two-panel patio doors. Please note, retractable insect screen track reduces clear opening height by 1".
Convenient blinds-between-the-glass are now available on select 400 Series gliding patio doors.
Exterior trim adds a finishing touch to your windows or doors and is often essential in achieving authentic architectural style. You can match the color of your windows or doors, or complement them with a different color.
An oak or maple threshold is available for finishing the interior of the sill.
Ramped sills provide a smooth transition from interior to exterior and can be used with a retractable insect screen, but not a gliding insect screen.
An aluminum sill support is designed to lock into a channel under the sill and tie back into the wall. This will offer support to the outermost sill section when needed. Available in a neutral gray finish.
Andersen Frenchwood patio door transoms feature elegant lines that match our 400 Series Frenchwood gliding patio doors. Stationary units can also be selected for use as sidelights.
With the most advanced technology in the industry, patented VeriLock® sensors not only indicate whether your windows and patio doors are open, they even tell you if they are locked or unlocked.* No other sensors can do that.
VeriLock® Sensor Colors

**Based on testing of (32) A-Series double-hung windows. Air loss through unlocked windows will vary based on window type and age, pressure differential, temperatures inside and outside the home, altitude and application.
When you want the peace of mind of knowing whether your windows and patio doors are open or closed, these sensors are a simple, reliable solution.
