Are patio doors secure?

Patio doors are more safe and secure now than ever before. Compared to older models of sliding glass doors, new windows come with shatterproof glass which makes them safer on many levels. Families with young children will appreciate the durability, while everyone benefits from a door that’s harder to break into. 

All Philadelphia patio doors from Zen Windows also come with heavy-duty, multi-point locking systems that are difficult to get into. This discourages kids from getting out without noticing, or intruders from getting in when engaged. 

To ensure everything stays reinforced, modern patio doors come standard with high-quality components. Aluminum-capped thresholds, high-strength screen frames, and reinforced vertical sash stiles are all among the features that will keep your home protected from danger. 

Are patio doors energy efficient?

With the advancements in technologies today, smart homeowners know to look for energy efficient home improvements to help save money. Patio doors today are built to help keep gas and electricity bills lower while your home stays comfortable. 

Zen Windows glass patio doors are built with energy efficient options built in to reduce your energy costs. New doors come with composite gaskets which create an air-tight seal, keeping your home at a pleasant temperature while keeping the rain and snow out. 

Low-E coatings and argon gas also work to keep UV rays and heat radiation out of your home. Over time, UV rays can not only heat up your home but also fade furniture and flooring. Preventing UV damage keeps your home in better condition while lowering the temperature during the spring and summer – something everyone in your home can appreciate.
