Whether your old windows are letting in cold air or costing you too much on your energy bills, it may be time to invest in new doors. EcoView Windows & Doors of Detroit North has been replacing doors in Sterling Heights MI for over 24 years. We know how important it is to get the job done right!
Durability
When it comes to doors for the entryways of your Sterling Heights MI home, you want the best. That’s why the experts at Pure Energy Window Company carry and install a wide variety of Therma-Tru and North Star door systems with wood-grained and smooth textures as well as many inspired glass designs to choose from.
These durable new patio doors can enhance the pleasure and use of your outdoor living spaces while increasing curb appeal and property value. The vinyl and fiberglass cladding is easy to clean, while the multiple locking mechanisms ensure the safety of your family and guests.
Energy Efficiency
Older doors allow too much heat to escape during the winter, resulting in high energy bills. New patio doors minimize thermal transfer, lowering your home’s heating and cooling costs.
Look for a door with double-pane glass or a low-emissivity coating and a gas between the panes to reduce thermal loss. Also choose swinging patio doors rather than sliding types, which leak more air.
You can also improve your energy efficiency by adding attic insulation and air sealing. Ecotelligent Homes offers cellulose and spray foam insulation made in Michigan, which has a lower environmental impact than other products.
If you want to take advantage of government incentives for energy-efficient upgrades, talk to your dealer about the Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) program. This long-term financing solution allows you to invest in energy efficiency and renewable energy upgrades without incurring upfront costs.
Security
Patio doors are usually on the ground level and can be an easy point of entry for burglars. A licensed locksmith can help you fortify your patio doors so that they are more difficult to break into. You can add a dead bolt that locks into the side of the sash or a security bar into the mid-track. Other safety features include protective window film, motion lights and a Charlie bar which is a piece of pipe or electrical conduit cut to fit and can be attached to the door frame to make it more difficult to smash the glass.
New windows flood your home with natural light and improve its interior and outdoor spaces. They also enhance curb appeal and property value. They’re low maintenance, much like your sliding patio doors and clean easily with mild detergent. They’re made with durable vinyl or fiberglass cladding and come in a variety of colors and styles.
Style
Patio doors allow you to bring in more natural light, which helps brighten your home and save on energy costs. The larger panes of glass also offer a beautiful view, and can make your home feel bigger and more spacious.
Patio Doors are often confused with Double Doors, but there is a difference between the two. Patio Doors are hinged on the center mull posts, while Double Doors are anchored on both sides.
Sliding patio doors are available in a variety of styles, options and colors to fit any style of home. They’re easy to maintain with vinyl and fiberglass cladding that looks great and requires only mild detergent for cleaning. With state-of-the-art thermal efficiency, you’ll enjoy tight weather seals and reduced home energy costs. And with a wide range of hardware and operating systems to choose from, you’re sure to find the perfect door for your home!
