The widest opening in most Arizona homes, and the single biggest source of heat gain. Big glass, smooth travel, and a seal that holds when the dust blows. This is the one worth doing right the first time.

A patio door is a wall of glass that slides on a track instead of swinging open. Two, three, or four panels sit in a single frame with at least one that moves. It is almost always the largest piece of glass you own, which is exactly why the wrong package costs you every afternoon from May through September.
Three decisions drive how a patio door performs in the desert. We walk each one with you at the estimate, in plain language.
Low-E coatings with a low SHGC, argon fill, and warm-edge spacers. On a west or south patio door we target roughly 0.20 to 0.27 SHGC, because that is the wall where the afternoon sun actually lands.
Two panels for a standard opening, three for a wide living room, four for a full wall. We set which panel operates around your furniture and the way you actually walk through the room, not around the factory default.
Tandem stainless rollers, multi-point locking, anti-lift blocks, and foot bolts. Laminated glass is available where you want forced-entry resistance and a noticeably quieter room.

Almost always the rollers, the track, or both. Years of monsoon dust turn a track into sandpaper and flatten cheap plastic rollers. New tandem stainless rollers on a correctly pitched track fix it at the root instead of masking it.
More than any window in the house, most likely. It is the largest uninterrupted piece of glass you own, and on a west or south wall it can dominate the entire afternoon load. That is why we settle the glass package before we talk about anything else.
Yes, and it should be built in at the factory rather than cut in later. An aftermarket insert wedged into the track kills the seal and voids most glass warranties. We install sliding patio doors with the pet panel already part of the door.
A like-for-like replacement in the same opening usually needs no permit. Widening the opening or touching structure does. Either way we pull what is required and put together the HOA packet if your community asks for one.
We pair top-rated, desert-tested products with installers who treat your home like their own. See which brand and glass package fits your home and budget, on the house.
Book My Free ConsultationSame crew, same warranty. A different panel count or a different look can change how the whole room lives.

Three panels for a wide opening. A large fixed center pane with sliding flankers, or a stacking setup for a wider clear walkthrough.
The look of a French door with the footprint of a slider. Wide stiles and a true meeting rail, and nothing swings into the room.

A factory-built pet panel inside the door itself. No cut glass, no aftermarket insert, no broken seal.
