A-Series Gliding Patio Door Features
Frame constructed with a wood core and a fiberglass exterior. This construction produces a rigid frame and a low-maintenance, durable exterior. The wood frame is treated with a water-repellent preservative for long-lasting protection and performance.
One-piece non-conductive fiberglass sill enhances energy performance, and its superior strength eliminates the need for sill support. Innovative sill design provides superior water management.
Dual ball-bearing rollers on door panels provide smooth gliding operation with self-contained leveling adjusters.
Andersen® reachout locking hardware pulls the door panel snugly into the jamb for a weathertight seal and enhanced security.

Screens and Blinds
The insect screen is available for both two-panel doors and four-panel doors. Gliding insect screens have Delrin® injection-molded bottom rollers with self-contained leveling adjusters, providing smooth operation. Interior and exterior pulls and latch are provided.
The retractable insect screen is installed on the exterior of the door and opens side-to-side across the width of the opening. When the insect screen is not in use, it neatly retracts into a small canister mounted on the exterior of the door. The retractable insect screen canister is available for two-panel patio doors. Please note, retractable insect screen track reduces clear opening height by 1″.
Grill Types
Grilles applied to the interior and exterior of the window with aluminum spacers between the glass create an authentic look.
Simulated divided light offers permanent grilles on the exterior and a choice of permanent or removable wood interior grilles, with no spacer between the glass.
Finelight™ grilles are suspended between the panes of glass, allowing you to easily clean both the inside and outside of your windows and doors.
Removable interior wood grilles are secured via a fastener or grille clip and can be removed enabling you to easily clean the glass surface.
