"Many times, entertaining is done in connection with the home's patio or deck," said Steve Sullivan, director of marketing at AMSCO Windows. "The patio has become a place to entertain and cook, whether it's to host birthday parties, holiday events or just hang out. A uniquely designed patio entranceway can make a home feel bigger by bringing the outdoors in and all the fun that comes with it."
Designers can create their own masterpiece for their patio entranceway with AMSCO through the multiple features and options available:
Sizes - Customers may specify custom sizes in two-, three- and four-panel configurations in both the Heritage Series and Renaissance Series sliding patio doors.
Door panels - Panels on the Heritage Series French style sliding patio door are available with standard 4-1/2" stiles and a 6-1/2" bottom rail for a more natural French style look. The Renaissance Series and Heritage Series Contemporary sliding patio doors offer a narrow frame and sash that allows a maximum viewing area for a more traditional look.
Colors - White, Almond and Taupe are available on all of AMSCO's sliding patio doors. In addition, Heritage Series Contemporary style sliding patio doors offer a Bronze exterior with a White interior. And, with the Renaissance Series, a Pine Wood veneer interior is also available.
Optional Hardware - Standard handle hardware is color matched to the frame for a uniform look. And, coming soon, designers and homeowners will have the option of selecting a variety of plated finishes to match any home's décor.
Grids/Grilles - Grids between the glass are offered in both the Heritage Series and Renaissance Series sliding patio doors. In addition, simulated divided light grilles are available with the Renaissance Series for a more traditional look. Interior grids are available in flat or sculptured profiles while exterior grilles are available in a sculptured profile only.
Operation - Designers and architects can choose from different panel configurations that best suit the home's functionality. By offering the flexibility for specifying the location of the operating panels, customers are better equipped to make the home's layout and available space meet their needs.
Complementary Sidelites and Transoms - Sidelites and transoms are available and may be added to any sliding patio door to allow architects and contractors to create unique, light-filled patio door entranceway combinations.
Each sliding patio door is manufactured to exacting dimensions and quality. They feature the highest quality hardware and come with AMSCO's full lifetime warranty that coversboth materials and labor for as long as you own your home.
