We can source doors for you from any major manufacturer, but after decades in the business, we have chosen to make Milgard our primary supplier. Milgard offers a full range of custom-manufactured doors, from budget-friendly to top-of-the-line.
FAQ
Nearly all our customers choose Milgard vinyl or fiberglass frames.
Vinyl. Milgard vinyl frames are energy-efficient, virtually maintenance-free and cost-effective. Offered in four different lines and all common shapes and configurations, Milgard has a vinyl option for every situation. Trinsic Vinyl, which has proven highly popular with our customers, features a narrow frame and comes in eight different exterior colors and four interior colors.
Fiberglass. Exceptionally strong and durable, fiberglass comes at a higher price point than most vinyl, but delivers a top-of-the line look and feel. Its low thermal conductivity makes it highly energy efficient and helps you stay comfortable year-round. Fiberglass is also ‘paintable,’ which means you can change the frame color in the future.
There are five choices for how you open your doors:
- Sliding (glides left or right on a narrow track)
- Swinging or French (exterior version opens outward, interior version opens inwards)
- Pocket (slides into the adjoining wall, disappearing from view)
- Bi-Fold (glass panels fold over one another and then slide along a track to the side)
- Stacking (panels slide in front of one another, then slide along a track to the side)
