- 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.

A new construction or "tear-out" installation, as the name implies, requires the removal of the existing window or door frame. This process involves chipping back the stucco several inches around the perimeter of the existing frame. The wire lath, building paper and flashing are then pulled back, exposing the nail fin of the old frame. The nails attaching the old frame to the existing structure are pulled and the old window or door frame is removed. A new nail-on or new construction frame is installed square and plumb and professionally sealed with high grade caulking and new flashing material. The building paper and wire lath are put back in place and the stucco is patched. Specifically formulated materials are used to allow completion of the stucco patch in one day with no cracking and existing textures are expertly matched. The interior drywall is patched and textured as required and/or any pre-selected interior wood trim options are applied. This is the installation method typically employed by California Replacement Windows to change out sliding glass patio doors. From start to clean up, the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship are evident throughout the installation process.
