We have supplied hundreds of high-quality folding doors to homeowners across Chicago, and the usage pictured here — connecting an interior living room to a cozy backyard deck — is by far the most common application we see. And with good reason! The seamless integration of indoor & outdoor space makes this an excellent choice for families, entertaining, and pets that just can’t make up their mind.
We first provided this Lincoln Park single family home with a three-panel aluminum clad system from LaCantina Doors, which allows residents to move freely between the open concept kitchen / family room on the first floor and their glorious yard greenery. Come wintertime, the wood frame’s insulating properties & argon-filled glass helps keep the cold out, while still providing the durability and easy maintenance of aluminum.
Several years later, the homeowner reached back out to have a Centor integrated screen added to the opening as well. Though there are several advantages to installing both at the same time, retrofit projects like this one are also totally doable!
