- Perhaps no single architectural feature is more representative of southern California living than the sliding glass door. For many generations, sliding glass doors have opened our homes to natural light and panoramic views, simultaneously giving us easy connections with decks, patios, and gardens.
  
  Today, a new generation of high-quality sliding, or "gliding," doors offer energy efficiency, durability, safety, and contemporary style.
  
  Sliding doors come in a variety of sizes. In addition to the standard 6-foot, 8-iinch height, custom sizes are also available. Three- or four-panel-wide configurations that are as wide as 16 feet are also available. Sliding glass doors are made with one fixed panel and one sliding panel, or with multiple sliding panels on four-door-wide models.
  
  You can find doors that have wide rails and stiles (horizontal and vertical framing elements) like French doors, and doors with thinner rails and stiles that maximize glazing.

- A French door is traditionally a double swinging door. However, there can be variations including fixed or operable sidelites with optional grids. A French door’s architectural beauty provides many opportunities to enhance and compliment the design of your home.

- California Replacements expertise extends well beyond common retro-fit window applications. Over the years we have installed thousands of bay, bow, and garden windows. Because of our extensive experience we are capable of performing many window and door modifications. We can turn windows into doors, doors into windows, and create an opening in a solid wall.

Under certain circumstances, a "retro-fit" installation of a new sliding glass door can be performed. This installation requires precise measurements of the exiting door frame. The sides and top of the existing frame stay in place and the bottom sill is removed. The new custom sized door is installed over the existing frame. It is set square, plumb and level and is sealed with high grade sealants to prevent water and air infiltration. A variety of trim options are available to complete the interior. This process is done with no stucco or drywall damage.
