In the market for a beautiful new patio door? If so, you may be feeling quite overwhelmed when presented with all of the options available to you. From French doors and pivot doors to sliding doors and everything in between – how do you possibly decide which design is ‘the one’? The experts at K Parker Joinery have three tips to share to help you decide. 

1. Space

First and foremost, you need to ascertain just how much space you have to work with. Some patio door designs are made to swing open, so there cannot be any furniture anywhere near them. Sliding doors, on the other hand, remain in one place and are suitable for any space, big or small. 

2. Material

The material that you choose for your patio door will depend on more than just how it looks. You will need to take the time to weigh up the pros and cons of each. For example, wooden patio doors are arguably the most aesthetically pleasing and the most earth-friendly. However, uPVC patio doors are certain to provide a higher level of security due to their lightweight yet sturdy nature. Aluminium is another option and is known to be not only cost-effective but also durable. Ultimately, the final decision comes down to you and your individual preferences and requirements. 

3. Your Home

You will want your new patio door to mirror the look and feel of the rest of your home. Sliding doors, for instance, work well when paired with modern home interiors and exteriors, while French patio doors are ideal for homes that give off a more rustic allure. 

Whatever your vision may be when it comes to your home’s patio doors, we at K Parker Joinery can help you to turn it into a reality. Get in touch with us now for further details.
