| I need to replace a sliding patio door and want a french patio door. I've looked at Marvin Integrity, Jeld-Wen, Milgard, Anderson. I am concerned that the doors have a good lock, or multipoint locks. Which company or companies produce a good quality door and which tend to have problems? |

| I would take a look at Provia. They make both steel and fiberglass french doors with a lot of color and decorative glass options. What did you not like about the doors you have looked at so far? |

| Andersen Frenchwood sliders are very well made. Watch their sizing though. They size a 6-8 door differently than most. |

| What did you decide? We have 2 Anderson french sliders and i love them! We have had them for 10 years and they slide like a dream. Nice heavy door and really blocks out the heat from the sun. One thing I like about the door is that you can lock it in a partially open position. Feels safe to keep open all night. It came unfinished, so I did have to stain it. Here is a picture of the one in our living room. Wood interior and prefinished white exterior. Ignore the happy Christmas kid ;)
The bottom framing is slightly larger than the top. |

| Cute pics. Looks like the pup was recovering from some surgery? |

| Thanks windowsonwashington, he aspirated salt water into his lungs at the dig beach. He was hospitalized for a day and half. The picture was when he came home. He is perky as ever now. Pretty scary though! Don't mean to hijack the window thread! :) |

| Dog beach not dig beach ..... Well, I guess it's both!! |
