Patio Doors

me asked:


Is installing vinyl sliding glass doors hard to do along with building wooden steps down from the door outside. I am planning on knocking my bedroom window which is 53 by 41 inches out and installing the sliding glass doors. So I was wondering if this is a really challengeing job or not. We have aluminum siding outside and I want to make everything water tight. So I was wondering if there was sometype of vinyl planking I could put at the top of the door to cover the wood. I would prefer if the door was at least 5 feet wide. I want this door to be maintenance free so i think vinyl would be a good choice. So any tips or advice would be nice or how much it would cost to do this by canadian pricing. I was also wondering if you could buy pre built stairs for outside the door like from home depot or rona. thanks

I would like to know how to find a contractor to create a hole in my dining room for patio doors, right now it’s just a wall.
Is it possible? I was told by Sears they can install but they can not create a space.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Of course I will need a permit right?

I have thermal-pane sliding glass patio doors that have lost the gas and sweat-ed inside. They now have a haze that is backed on. I have 4-8 pannels in this condition. Does anyone know of a remedy for this? Is there any way to remove the haze that forms in between the panes of glass?

The rot is in two places, the bottom board that holds a glass window pane and in the bottom 10 inches of one of the vertical supports.

Is there any way to “treat” the wood to strengthen the existing structure and prevent any further rot or will I have to have the patio doors reframed?

Is there some reason why companies don’t sell many plain white curtains?? This is in the UK.

I live in a townhome which the association requires that patio door replacements must conform with the rest of the units. After conferring with a number of window stores, it appears that my patio door (circa 1996) is no longer produced. So essentially, I am in need of a custom solution… made to order patio doors. Help!
