Doorwalls
Doorwalls are often referred to as sliding doors or patio doors. Doorwalls have one panel that slides and typically one stationary section, although there could be two or three stationary sections. Doorwalls come in two profiles—the Contemporary style has more glass and less framing. The French doorwall has more framing and less glass, making it look more like French Doors. Most doorwalls have an auxiliary lock, or toe lock, that allows homeowners to get rid of the stick they have in their door that they use for extra security.
French Doors
French Doors are typically two sections and can have either one side or both sides open. Most French Doors that have only one side open are hinged off the fixed panel, and the handle is on the far side.
A French door with booth sides open is either an active/passive or a passive/active. The active door is the one that will be used on a regular basis. The passive door has an astragal that unlocks, allowing the door to open.
Keep in mind that most French Door needs clearance to swing into a room when opened.
Entry Doors
Entry Doors can be single doors or double doors. They can have one sidelight or two sidelights. Some doors have a transom above the door.
Entry Doors are made either of wood, fiberglass, or steel. Most doors installed today are fiberglass because they cost less than wood doors but can give the look of a wood door.
Fiberglass doors come in either a smooth or wood grain texture. The smooth fiberglass door is a paintable door only. The wood grain fiberglass door has a textured surface that can be stained or painted.
Doors that go from the house into the garage must be fire-rated.
