What You Need to Know About Turning a Window into a Patio Door

Things to Consider Before Converting Your Window Into a Door in Ontario

Consult a Project Consultant

Based on our firsthand experience, turning a window into a patio door can become complicated if you decide to do the job right away. You have to consider the structure of your window, the suitable materials to use, the electrical wirings, your house’s foundation, and the like. Consulting a project consultant will give you some ideas and let you know whether or not you need to secure a permit. Obtain a permitRead More

Hire A Contractor

If you are looking for a contractor to do the job of turning your window into a patio door, please be vigilant. Not all window and door companies can do such a job since it requires deeper expertise in terms of knowledge of building construction and understanding of how much you can enlarge the hole for your new installation. Wrongly cut walls can cause cracks and potential problems in your house’s construction. To avoid that, make sure to find someone reputable who has already done such jobs, ideally someone who has experience expanding the window opening to a 6-foot patio ( the biggest patio size and the hardest to do). In the case of Everest Windows and Doors, we have already done that dozens of times; therefore, we will definitely be keen on building your new patio for you without hesitation.Read More

Prepare for The Possible Refinishing and Replacements of Some Materials

Your contractors will do their best not to compromise both your windows header and drywall. However, the header expansion is almost impossible without removing the drywall first. This process is often needed when you have to make way for the patio door’s opening. Refinishing your new patio or hiring a drywall installer is a way to make up for the missing drywall.

A Need for An Electrician Might Be Possible

There are times that the cut-out may involve going through the electrical wirings installed on your wall. Hiring an electrician will ensure that your electrical wiring will be put back properly. Making some changes in your home requires a lot of responsibilities, like securing a permit and hiring different kinds of professionals. You know that these steps are necessary to make sure that your new patio door will not turn into a potential problem in the future. No matter how complicated it may seem, turning a window into a patio door makes a home cozier. If you need any help with this, do not hesitate to call Everest Doors & Windows. We will help you with your installation needs

From the beginning to the end of the installation of my three doors, there is nothing much I can say but the doors are of excellent quality.
