Replace French doors with Slider

#1 Post by AWCM »

Had the glass on the primary door spontaneously shatter. Instead of repairing it (it's 20 years old) I would like to replace it with a slider. Waiting on a quote for Provia but would like to know your thoughts. Location is Fredericksburg, VA. Door faces East. All windows are white vinyl so should match that. Would like to keep the french door look but no grids.
Also any dealer/contractor recommendations please. Already checked with WOW and am outside their area.
Thanks

If you are asking about aircraft, no. MH-60's, H-3's and ASWOC.

OTAC, 18 years in SOSUS.
Had the chance to ride P3A, B and C over the years. Generally hung out with the AW's on those flights.
Spent a bit of time in ASWOC's now and then in Bermuda, Kef, and Adak
Not an expert at any level about sliding doors unfortunately, except the glass and glazing part.

If WoW is able to stretch his service area for you that would be a win.
