Pella Patio Doors - Viewed To Be the Best!

After all, it's not just home improvement - it's life improvement.

Choosing a Style: Select the window and door styles that best fit your project needs using this helpful guide.

French Hinged Patio Doors

Pella Doors, French Hinged Patio Doors, Michigan Doors, patio doors


A classic look. Often used as an entryway from a patio or deck. Out-swing hinged doors are a good option if interior wall space is limited—and they also perform better in high-wind environments because the wind simply presses the operable panel(s) tightly against the jamb. The harder the wind blows, the tighter the seal.

Sliding Patio Doors

Require much less space than a hinged door. Sliding doors are available in French style with wide wood door panels for a traditional look, or in a contemporary style with narrow door panels and more visible glass area for a clean, contemporary look.
