Sliding doors can open up your inside room to the outside, seamlessly blending your indoor and outdoor living spaces. By removing existing doors and windows, you can transform virtually the entire wall into a series of sliding doors, whether it’s 2, 3, or even 4 panels wide. This not only modernizes the look of your home but also maximizes the natural light and provides expansive views of the outdoors.
When slid back, these doors can create an opening ranging from 25% to 75%, allowing for versatile use of the space. For example, a 75% opening can create a nearly uninterrupted transition to your garden or patio, perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying a fresh breeze.
The advantage of sliding doors is that they don’t take up any additional space when opening, as they slide flat against each other. This feature is particularly beneficial in compact spaces where traditional doors would require clearance. Additionally, these doors remain securely in place and won’t be blown open by the wind, unlike French doors which can be susceptible to sudden gusts.
