Re: Sliding Patio Door in Florida

OK...these two might be out of my budget, but I looked at the WinGuard® Vinyl Sliding Door SGD570 and the StormBreaker Plus 300VL by Simonton. If they are I was looking at the Reflections 5500 and the PGT Vinyl Sliding Door SGD470.

Any comments?

Re: Sliding Patio Door in Florida

Thanks guys, no it doesn't have to be an impact door, forgive my ignorance but what is KD?

Sliding Patio Door in Florida

I'm finally getting around to replace my builder grade patio door and I was hoping I could get some advice from the experts. It seems like every time I find a slider I like it's not available in Florida. The installer I selected wants to put in Alside 6100 or Simonton; their thin line model. Neither...

Windows installed today!

I had my windows installed today...Gorell 5300's, and they look great! Thanks to this forum for all the advise and recommendations.
