This is an excellent question that I’m sure a lot of people ask. It’s not a matter of if you need to replace it. If you’re reading this article we’re sure you’re already considering replacing your patio door; it’s more a matter of when.
Factors To Consider
Here at Conservation Construction of Dallas it’s not just one factor alone that might want you to consider switching out your patio door but two or more. If you have any combination of more than two of the things listed below it may be time to consider switching to a new patio door . . .
- Cracked Glass
- Broken Patio Door Seal (Condensation Between The Glass)
- A Door That Doesn’t Slide Easily
- Hardware That Doesn’t Lock Properly
- A Screen That Is Torn Or Shredded
Just one of these things is a hassle to deal with, but if you’ve got multiple of these issues going on really it is time to start considering when you’re going to get your patio door replaced. New patio doors are energy efficient, slide easily, have a seal that keeps the insulating gas inside the door for years, and have clear views.
New Doors Slide Easier
I for one had a patio door that wouldn’t lock and slide easily and I didn’t realize how much it inconvenienced my day to day life. When I simply switched out the old door for a new one I could access my mud room easily and I didn’t wonder if my house was safe, because I have locks that actually work now. Trust me, you should have a door that slides and locks easily at the very least because this is one of the main ways to enter your home. You don’t want to struggle with your door. Your door should be working for you not against you.
Other Reasons To Switch
There are other reasons you want to switch out your doors if you have more than one of these problems going on too. For one cracked or broken glass is an eyesore. Not to mention that cracked glass and condensation indicate broken seals which means the doors have lost their energy efficient properties. They are not protecting or insulating your home from the weather outside. If you live in a place like Texas you definitely want a door that protects you against the extreme sun that hits our houses in the summer. The amazing new patio doors we sell at Conservation Construction of Texas do just that.
