What it changes

Ten feet of light into the room

A window’s light reaches about one and a half times the height of its head. A patio door head at 80 in. therefore lights roughly 10 ft deep: the table, the counter, often the hallway. In November and December, Montréal gets less than 31% of its possible sunshine: what comes in depends mostly on the area of glass.

Frequently asked questions

Two or three panels?

Two panels up to about 8 ft wide; three panels for large openings, up to 12 ft. We measure the opening at your home.

Is the built-in blind worth it?

It sits protected between the panes, never needs washing, and doesn’t get in the way of the door. We show it to you at the visit.
