I personally think the Sunrise slider is nicer than that the Provia in this comparison.

The Hinged patio or French equivalent of the Provia door would be more expensive as a standard when compared to their slider variant.

Most folks have the idea that the French is a more premium door than a slider but the slider works better for most people because it does not encroach into the roof vs. and Inswing French and it has a screen as a standard whereas an Oustswing will not.

The Sunrise slider I looked at had the blinds between the glass. It was Guardian glass with no low E coating which surprised me. I thought Sunrise used Cardinal low E glass?

They may have switched but it is a standard to not have Low-e (soft-coat) inside a blinds between the glass.
