Re: Vinyl Patio Door w/ Built-In Blinds

Alright so I finally had the Okna door installed by America's Window yesterday. Overall the door is really nice. The only issue we had was during installation. When they were lifting the door to place it into the rough opening the sliding door fell out (it fell straight forward, imagine a tree falli...

Re: Vinyl Patio Door w/ Built-In Blinds

Oh and just a note (after noticing this thread http://www.vinyl-replacement-windows.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=6438). We were originally going to do a 2-tone door (Almond exterior and White interior) but America's Window said they don't due that anymore due to issues they've had with the pain...

Re: Vinyl Color Process (Okna v. Revere)

I just ordered an Okna vinyl sliding door (Elegante) from America's Window. They said they don't do 2-tone anymore (I thought they meant Okna in general but I guess maybe it's just them?) due to issues with the paint being too easy to scratch or something like that. :?: I was going to do Almond exte...

Re: Vinyl Patio Door w/ Built-In Blinds

So I had America's Window come out and give us a quote. For the 6ft almond Elegante with every option (intuition handle, extra foam, interior blinds, etc.) they quoted $4000 installed ($5000 final because they have to widen my 5.5ft door frame). They said you can't do a "custom" size with ...

Re: Vinyl Patio Door w/ Built-In Blinds

Thanks for the advice all. I'll follow-up with America's Windows and see what they can do for me. I was planning on using Back Construction (anyone have any experience with them?) for some reno work and it seems that they're "Pella Certified" but I see no mention of Okna. I might pass it b...

Vinyl Patio Door w/ Built-In Blinds

I'm in the market for a new back door (patio). My research has lead me to lean towards vinyl to avoid all the issues with wood. At first wanted a double french door but it doesn't seem like that exists in vinyl. So instead I'm now looking at sliding vinyl doors. One feature my wife seems insistent o...
