One of the reasons we love Anlin Windows and Doors is because the manufacturing company is never content to just keep making the same old products. They always seem to be innovating or improving their products in some way. We recently told you about how Anlin is offering windows with black frames that are highly resistant to fading, streaking, or scratching, and now we have another improvement to report: upgraded in-glass pet doors for their replacement patio doors. Anlin has been offering in-glass pet doors for many years. They are a very popular add-on for our San Diego-area customers who replace their patio doors. As the name implies, the in-glass pet door can be installed directly into one of the glass panels of a sliding or swinging patio door, eliminating the need to cut a …

Sliding Patio Doors vs. Swinging Patio Doors for San Diego Homes
As the weather in San Diego starts to warm up and the days get longer, people are starting to think about spending more time outdoors. For some, that means entertaining in the backyard. For others, that means grilling outdoors or simply spending time in their backyards, on their patios, or on their balconies.

Just about every home in San Diego has a patio door of some sort that serves as the passageway from the indoors to the outdoor area. Some homes even have multiple patio doors. If your home is more than 40 years old or so, and its patio doors have never been replaced, they are likely starting to show their age.

Patio Door Options for San Diego Homes
Glass patio doors are extremely common in San Diego. In fact, you’d be hard-pressed to find a San Diego home that didn’t have one. They’re pretty much staples in homes located in areas with nice weather, where convenient access to the outdoors is a must. When you have a smaller home, or a small living area, a patio door can help expand your living and entertaining space by creating one large indoor-outdoor room. You’ve probably been to parties where the patio door is just left open the whole time, and guests seamlessly move from indoors to outdoors throughout the day or evening. We are very fortunate to live in an area where we can do that—with our mild temperatures and our limited numbers of bugs here in San Diego. However, coming and going through a glass patio door can start to …
Does Your Patio Door Roller Need an Adjustment, or Is it Time for a New Patio Door?
Here in the United States, we have a bit of a bad reputation for just throwing things out and buying new, rather than repairing broken items. The reasons for this probably vary from person to person. Maybe someone doesn’t know how to do the necessary repairs, or perhaps it seems easier just to buy a new item. Or maybe it’s simply that a person likes to have new things. We suspect that many people are in the first category when it comes to their patio doors. They would like to save some money and repair their doors themselves when they become difficult to open and close, but they just don’t know how. Fortunately, it’s easy to make the adjustment that will likely help your patio door open and close freely again. All it takes is a few minutes of your time and a Phillips head …
