3 Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Patio Doors

Is your patio showing its age? Does it stick and make it difficult to get in and out from your yard? Are you looking for new ways to brighten your house or give your backyard patio a face lift? New patio doors may be the solution. Below we’ve listed three clear signs it’s time for new patio doors in your home.

#1. Cosmetic Patio Door Problems

Often one of the first signs that patio doors need to be replaced are the cosmetic problems that can come with age. Older patio doors can have aesthetic issues like chips and scratches. Sometimes they even fade with regular exposure to UV rays.

These cosmetic problems can have a negative impact on the appearance of your home. Are you selling your property soon? New patio doors can make staging easier and may also boost curb appeal and raise your property value.

Renewal by Andersen of Long Island patio doors are designed to add beauty to your home. They’re not just functional – they’re among the most attractive patio doors available on the market. They come in multiple styles, including French patio doors and contemporary sliding doors. They can also have a stainable pine interior and a sturdy vinyl exterior.

#2. Poor Patio Door Functionality

As your patio doors age, they may lose their ability to seal properly and open or close easily. Drafty doors can lead to an uncomfortable home. In addition, the more inefficient your patio doors are, the more burden will be placed on your heating and air conditioning system. Drafty doors make temperature regulation difficult, which in turn may cause your HVAC system to run longer and harder than it should.

Old patio doors may also become difficult to use. Sliding doors stick and jump their track, while doors on hinges may become difficult to open and close, particularly as Long Island’s notoriously high humidity levels rise and fall.

All of these problems are a sign that your patio doors need to be replaced. Renewal by Andersen of Long Island patio doors have a rigid vinyl surface with an engineered wood core. On the interior, our patio doors feature an easy to stain pine wood that can be made any color that suits your home. You’ll notice the difference between your old and new doors instantly.

#3. Patio Door Repairs Can Be Costly

Expensive repairs are usually not a great investment for old patio doors. If your patio doors need to be fixed and the repair person or handy man has quoted an amount that is almost as expensive as replacing the doors themselves, then it’s time to replace your door.
