Your doors are one of the primary elements of your home’s security. These guard your entryways, prevent unauthorized entry, and protect your interior from the harsh weather. A door’s security depends on its door construction and its lock system. We explain how our patio doors can help keep your home secure.
Our Patio Door Construction
Our patio doors in Rochester, MN feature an engineered wood core frame that provides excellent structural stability and thermal performance. Compared with hollow frame doors, solid core doors are heavy. These feel and move like a door should and offer excellent acoustic insulation. Most importantly, these are more impact resistant.
Thanks to this strength, our patio doors will not crack or chip through the years and will hold up to the hardest use. In addition, our glass can be heat-treated to be at least four times stronger than regular glass. These features all come together to make a door that’s durable, secure, and long lasting.
Our Patio Door Locking Systems
Choose us for your patio door replacement in Rochester, MN because of our range of security options. Our patio doors have two different locking systems, depending on the door type. Our sliding patio doors have the unique Andersen reach-out locking system. This pulls the door panel tightly against the jamb and increases the doors security and weathertightness.
