Patio Door Technology

What makes our patio doors special

ProVia vinyl sliding glass doors were designed to be beautiful, durable and energy efficient. Our vinyl sliding patio doors are tested against the most stringent industry standards for air and water infiltration, wind load resistance, ease of operation, forced entry and much more. To achieve that level of performance, our engineers focused on every aspect of the door design, from the materials, to the frame, hardware and glass.

The result is the development of sliding glass patio doors that offer long-term reliable and smooth operation, with lower heating and air-conditioning costs, easier cleaning, low maintenance and increased comfort.

FineLine^™ technology

FineLine technology gives patio door corners a cleaner look. Standard on all laminated Endure™ patio doors with the option to upgrade on white, beige and sandstone.

Accuvent™ Lever

ProVia's Accuvent™ lever design has a clean, sophisticated look with an ergonomic finger-tipped lever designed for ease of use.

Accuvent™

AccuVent™ is ProVia's proprietary design featuring a sash lever combined with a top mounted ratchet and lock system allowing multiple venting locations. Standard for Endure, optional for Aspect.

Standard Mortise Hardware

The Schlage® C Keyway on all keyed locking handles allow a single key entry for the entire house.

Galvanized Steel Reinforced Panels

Foot-lock

The foot lock adds peace of mind when you want to leave the door open for ventilation yet keep would-be intruders out. Standard for Aspect, optional for Endure.

Multi-chamber Design

Strong, multi-chamber profiles and 4⁄16" frame depth offer greater thermal efficiency and increased sound abatement. (Endure Patio Door frames have Neopor® insulation).

Patented Easy Sliding System

Patented sliding system features four adjustable 1" wheels per operating panel.

Water Draining

Sill is reinforced with galvanized steel. Pair that with our patented water draining system, and the results are an efficient and durable base for our patio door.

Enhanced Intelocking System

Fixed and mobile panel rails meet and interlock perfectly, making removal from the outside virtually impossible. Lower sill design provides safer entry and exit.
