What Are Sliding Vinyl Doors?
Sliding vinyl doors consist of large glass panels that glide horizontally along a track. Typically, one panel is fixed while the other slides open, making them ideal for patios, decks, balconies, or any area with limited space. Their minimal frame design allows for maximum natural light and unobstructed outdoor views, making interior spaces feel brighter and more expansive.
Ideal Applications
Sliding vinyl doors are ideal for:
Patio and deck access
Balconies and backyard entrances
Living rooms and open-concept spaces
Coastal and desert climates
They’re especially practical in homes with contemporary or transitional architecture, and they complement both single-family homes and condos.
Key Benefits
Space-Efficient Functionality
Unlike hinged doors, sliding doors do not require swing space, making them ideal for tighter layouts or rooms where furniture placement is a priority.
Smooth and Quiet Operation
Our vinyl doors feature precision-engineered rollers and tracks that ensure effortless gliding. Optional upgrades include stainless steel rollers or multi-point locking systems for added security and performance.
Energy Efficiency
All sliding vinyl doors offered by Andes Windows & Doors come with dual or triple-pane glass, Low-E coatings, and argon gas fills to improve insulation and reduce heating and cooling costs. The vinyl frames are multi-chambered for enhanced thermal resistance.
Durability and Low Maintenance
Vinyl is a resilient material that won’t peel, crack, or warp over time. It’s resistant to moisture, UV rays, and coastal corrosion—making it a great choice for homes throughout Southern California, especially in humid or sunny environments.
