Project Overview

Classic Style With Space-Saving Operation

AMG Doors & Windows installed this Andersen 400 Series Frenchwood gliding patio door in Pleasanton, California. The two-panel design provides the traditional proportions and substantial rails associated with a French-style patio door while opening horizontally, so it does not require the interior or exterior clearance of a swinging door.

The finished project combines a white exterior, white interior, Colonial grilles and bright-brass hardware. The coordinated palette complements the home's trim, while the full-height glass keeps the patio and backyard visible from the living space.

Product Construction

400 Series Frenchwood Construction

The Andersen 400 Series Frenchwood gliding patio door combines a real wood interior with a weather-resistant vinyl exterior. It is a strong option for Pleasanton homeowners who want traditional patio-door styling, a substantial frame profile and the ability to coordinate the interior with painted trim or natural wood finishes.

One panel glides while the other remains stationary. The exterior insect screen provides ventilation, and the Reachout locking system draws the operating panel tightly into the jamb when locked.

Wood Interior, Vinyl Exterior

A real wood interior for traditional warmth with a low-maintenance vinyl exterior facing the weather.

Two-Panel Gliding

Colonial Grille Pattern

Three lites wide by five lites high on each panel for a classic divided-light appearance.

Newbury Bright Brass Hardware

Reachout Locking
