Sunlight, blowing wind, snowfall and rainfall – virtually nothing can stop JELD-WEN’s new Builders Clad-Wood Sliding Patio Door from performing, even in the toughest circumstances.

Being able to affordably protect against numerous types of weather conditions makes this door system exceptional: To manage sunlight, the doors offer an option of either blinds in between the glass, or Low-E glass panels which can be populated with argon and thermally sealed, to reduce fading of interior furnishings and provide improved energy efficiency.

For maximum water- and rain-resistance, JELD-WEN uses a dual punch of safeguards, including its amazing solid pine AuraLast wood, which provides an industry-leading warranty against water decay and saturation. The doors also have a fiberglass sill with corner key construction to create a tight seal and raise wood components above the water line to further prevent water absorption. Fiberglass provides an outstanding thermal barrier as well as integrated hidden sill anchoring system reduces bowing.

Wind is no problem for JELD-WEN Clad-Wood Sliding Patio Doors. Manufactured with sweep system seals to prevent water from entering during serious winds, these doors can meet a DP 50 code requirement.

For all round low-maintenance performance, the outside frame and panel areas are entirely covered with extruded aluminum cladding with integral nail fins. Cladding can be found in six of JELD-WEN’s most desired colors, including Brilliant White, French Vanilla, Desert Sand, Hartford Green, Chestnut Bronze and Black.

All this durability arrives beautifully easy. JELD-WEN’s Builders Clad-Wood Sliding Patio Doors are built to be exceptionally smooth and simple to use. Stainless steel rollers are adjustable for easy sliding. The blinds between the glass are easy to raise, lower and tilt, with a special control that moves precisely with minimal manipulation. As an added advantage, the door system can easily meet ENERGY STAR qualifications and is eligible for an energy tax credit.
