Do you have a porch, patio, or balcony? Consider connecting it to your home’s interior with a luxury sliding glass door. A sliding patio door offers a wide range of benefits that will help you enjoy your indoor and outdoor living areas even more. Find out more about the benefits of a luxury sliding glass door from New Jersey Siding & Windows, Inc.
More Natural Light
A large glass patio door is like an oversized window, letting sunlight into your home to make it feel brighter and more welcoming. Bright natural light also makes rooms seem larger and more spacious. With a luxury glass patio door, your living area will feel open and inviting throughout the day.
Natural light is also good for you. Natural sunlight helps regulate your circadian rhythm, so you can maintain regular sleep cycles that are deeper and more restful. In fact, a lack of sunlight is connected to lower energy levels and depression, especially during the winter. Large glass doors and lots of light can help battle seasonal depression and keep you healthy.
Extended Living Area
Not only does a patio door make your living area look larger – it connects outdoor areas with indoor spaces, so you really do have a bigger space. The large opening makes it easy to move back and forth between the patio and the adjoining rooms as you grill up a feast or relax with loved ones. Even when the door is closed, the visibility makes it all feel connected.
Yet unlike other large exterior doors, a sliding door doesn’t swing to take up space when left open. This gives you even more room to move about or to place décor while you enjoy breeze and sunlight.
Energy Efficiency
When your sliding door isn’t open, it can increase your home’s energy efficiency. Most sliding doors are made of multiple layers of glass with air in between. This is surprisingly effective insulation. The glass also has protective coatings that reflect sunlight and cold, keeping your home cool during the summer and warm during the winter. During the spring and fall, you can also leave the door open to let fresh air cool your home.
Views and Visual Appeal
Finally, a sliding glass door lets you take in all the beauty of the property surrounding your home. The large glass pane allows a gorgeous view into your backyard and the neighboring area. It’s a great way to let your landscaping really shine, to watch birds at your birdfeeders, keep an eye on your kids in the pool, and more.
Sliding doors are also stylish. The clean trim and clear glass complement most contemporary home styles very well. The trim comes in a wide variety of colors, and you can even add a grille or a decorative frame for extra charm.
