AfterProject Overview
Converting a Window Into an Andersen Patio Door
This Pleasanton home originally had a horizontal sliding window overlooking the outdoor area. The homeowners wanted more than a replacement window — they wanted a functional entrance that would provide direct access to the backyard and allow more natural light into the room.
AMG Doors & Windows converted the existing window opening into an opening for an Andersen 100 Series two-panel gliding patio door.
The new patio door gives the homeowners convenient outdoor access while expanding the amount of glass and creating a stronger visual connection between the interior room and backyard.
As an Andersen direct dealer and certified installer, AMG helps homeowners select, order, and professionally install Andersen windows and patio doors throughout Pleasanton and the Bay Area.
Before & After
Before and After: Window-to-Patio-Door Conversion
The original window provided light but did not allow access to the outdoor area. By converting the opening for an Andersen 100 Series gliding patio door, AMG created a functional new entrance while preserving the clean white exterior appearance of the home.

Andersen 100 Series Patio Doors for Pleasanton Homes
Andersen 100 Series patio doors offer Pleasanton homeowners a clean, modern appearance and the everyday convenience of a gliding door system. The larger glass area helps create a brighter room while the sliding configuration provides outdoor access without requiring additional swing space.

Final Result
A Brighter Room With Direct Outdoor Access
The completed Andersen patio-door conversion dramatically improves how the homeowners can use this part of their Pleasanton home.
What was previously a standard window is now a full-size gliding patio door that provides direct outdoor access, increases the visible glass area, and creates a more useful connection between the interior and backyard.
The finished project demonstrates how AMG Doors & Windows can help homeowners go beyond a standard patio-door replacement by completing window-to-patio-door conversions that turn an existing opening into a functional new exterior entrance.
Questions
Andersen Patio Door FAQs for Pleasanton Homeowners
Can an existing window be converted into a patio door?
Yes. On this Pleasanton project, AMG Doors & Windows removed a horizontal sliding window and converted the opening for an Andersen 100 Series two-panel gliding patio door, giving the homeowners direct backyard access where the room previously had only a window.
Is AMG Doors & Windows an Andersen dealer in Pleasanton?
AMG Doors & Windows is an Andersen direct dealer and certified installer serving Pleasanton, Alameda County and surrounding Bay Area communities, handling product selection, ordering, installation and project support through one local company.
What is the difference between Andersen patio door collections?
Andersen offers several patio door families, including the 100 Series, 200 Series, 400 Series, A-Series and E-Series. AMG can walk through the differences and help determine which system best fits the opening, the design goals and the project budget.
Why choose a gliding patio door instead of a swinging patio door?
A gliding patio door slides along its track, so it opens without the floor and furniture clearance a swinging patio door needs. That makes it a practical choice for rooms where usable space next to the opening matters.
