Would you like to make your patio even more stylish? Then install a sliding glass patio door. With them you will erase the boundaries between the outside and inside of the house, let in more light, and make your life more comfortable.
How Much Does It Cost to Install a New Sliding Glass Patio Door in Ontario?
The cost of such products is affected by:
- Size
The standard sliding glass patio doors are 80 inches high. The width can be different: 60, 72, 96 inches, etc.
A small single door, 60 by 80 inches, costs $799.
If you need bigger doors (for example, 190x95 inches), you have to pay up to $2,999 for such a model.
- Custom design
Standard sizes are cheaper than customized designs.
Thus, some custom-made projects may cost up to $4,000.
- Number of glass panels
You can also purchase sliding door systems with two, three or even four glass panels. The more glass panels, the more your project costs.
- Installation cost
Installing a standard 5-foot door costs about $550. Installing larger doors can be a little more expensive.
- Glazing type
The cheapest option is ordinary transparent glass.
We advise you to consider models made of tempered glass: it is very difficult to break, so you can not worry about someone from your household cutting on the pieces.
Of course, this glass is more expensive than the standard option.
To make the home more cozy and warm, choose double-glazed doors in which the space between the glasses is filled with argon.
- Locks
To improve security, consider installing multi-lock, security sensors and broken glass detectors to provide reliable protection against intruders.
Of course, such a lock costs more than a simple crossbar, which will eventually increase your expenses.
- Material
2 materials are used for such door system manufacturing: vinyl and aluminum.
Compared to aluminum, vinyl is lighter, more energy efficient and affordable. That is why it is most often used for residential homes, while aluminum models are installed in offices and other commercial buildings.
How Long Does It Take To Replace a Sliding Glass Door
As a rule, the installation of such doors (including aluminum lining and replacement of interior finishes) takes about 3 hours.
However, before calling the contractor to your site, make sure that:
- There are no furniture or decorative items near the site that could be damaged during installation.
- The installer can easily reach your home (do not block the access roads).
- There is nothing on the site that might interfere with the contractor to performing installation.
