Arizona Sliding Glass Doors

Extend Your Indoor Space Outdoors with Sliding Glass Doors

Arizona homeowners are not the type to be kept indoors, at least not when the humidity is low, the skies are clear and the sun is shining. Sliding glass doors offer convenient access from your indoor living space to your backyard, porch or balcony, where you can take advantage of the beautiful weather. Comprised of two or more panels to create a wide expanse of glass that glides on a track, sliding glass doors also offer a view of your natural surroundings and invite natural light into your home. No Scottsdale or Tucson home is complete without them.

Commonly known as: sliding patio door, sliding door, gliding door

Popular Local Trends & Styles


  • Vinyl sliding patio doors Contemporary Style

    Scottsdale homeowners like to keep it simple and straightforward, favoring the clean lines, neutral color palette and minimalist forms of the contemporary-style home. Sliding glass doors are essential for contemporary-style homes with a back patio area or even a swimming pool, providing convenient access between the indoors and outdoors.

  • Spanish Colonial Spanish Colonials

    Tucson is a city rich with cultural charm and that is made clear when exploring the mixture of architectural styles that comprise its collection of distinct neighborhoods. The Spanish Colonial style homes of Tucson were built to foster a connection with nature and the surrounding environment, making them a natural pairing for patio doors.

  • Sliding Screen Doors Sliding Screen Doors1

    Take advantage of the cooler climate in the fall and spring without having to step out into the sun.

Pella® InViewTM high-transparency screens allow for increased airflow and visibility.

Arizona Climate Recommendations


If you live in Scottsdale, the desert climate brings extremely hot summers and mild to warm winters. Tucson homeowners experience much the same, with hot summers and mild winters representing the area’s two major seasons. Humidity is low and the skies are clear in early summer, before giving way to higher humidity and frequent rainfall in mid to late summer. Spring and fall are very much alike, offering warm or hot days and warm or cool nights.

Low-E Protection

SunDefense® Low-E Insulating Glass with Argon can help block a significant percentage of the sun’s heat and ultraviolet rays. Low-E insulating glass helps keep your home cool and comfortable during the dry summer heat.
