Unite Your Home & Garden With Space-Saving Patio Doors
If you own a house with a garden but lack a continuous flow between them, you’re overlooking the opportunity for a harmonious connection between the indoor and outdoor areas of your home.
Because of this, we firmly believe that your home has yet to achieve its maximum potential. So, what’s the solution? The installation of patio doors!
By installing patio doors, you can establish a connection between your home and garden, effectively bridging the gap between the two. And when summer arrives, you’ll truly appreciate the enhanced interconnectivity they provide.
What defines the patio door design?
Patio doors are sliding doors that can lead into gardens, terraces, patios and other outdoor spaces. They include large glass panels with two being the standard number of panels. At ERG Scotland, customers have the option of patio doors with three or four panels.
In contrast to hinged doors, patio doors open horizontally by sliding, offering a space-saving solution. With no sashes that swing inward or outward, these doors eliminate the risk of being blown open on a windy day.
By incorporating patio doors into your living space, you can welcome an abundance of natural light and warmth. Moreover, these doors can be utilised to maintain adequate ventilation during hot weather conditions or heatwaves.
Patio doors vs. French doors
When comparing patio doors and French doors, the most notable distinction is their openings. While French doors are hinged, allowing them to swing open, patio doors typically operate by sliding horizontally.
Patio doors are known for featuring a larger proportion of glass and minimal framework. This is particularly evident in patio doors constructed from aluminum, which boast remarkably slim sightlines and expansive glass panes. As a result, these doors provide an uninterrupted and breathtaking view of the surrounding garden or outdoor space.
With patio doors, you can enjoy the harmonious integration of indoor and outdoor living spaces.
Enhancing the style of patio doors
To add an extra touch of elegance to your patio doors, consider styling them with curtains or blinds that can be drawn for added privacy.
Roller blinds are a convenient choice as they can be easily rolled up during the daytime, allowing maximum light to enter through each glass pane. Alternatively, you can opt for large, lightweight curtains made from thin fabric. These curtains can cover the entire glass area, creating a beautiful layered effect.
When selecting curtains or blinds, it’s important to ensure they are custom-made to fit your patio doors perfectly. This ensures that they do not obstruct the functionality of the doors or drag along the floor in the case of curtains.
