Infinity Sliding French Doors

What are Sliding French Doors?

Traditional French doors date back to the 17th century. The original purpose of this lightweight hinged door with glass panes was to bring sunlight into a room but with the functionality of a door. Sliding French doors are the modern interpretation of this distinguished classic. They have the same appearance as the traditional swinging French doors, with wider rails and stiles than ordinary patio doors. This classic design is especially ideal for older homes and for home décor that has classic styling. However, unlike vintage French doors, sliding French doors offer the same space-saving, streamlined design for modern living as sliding patio doors.

Combining Beauty and Durability

As with all of Marvin’s products, including windows and doors, homeowners get energy efficiency and beauty in one package. For example, Marvin’s Infinity line of Sliding Glass Doors combines:

• Natural wood French doors
• Durable, low maintenance Ultrex fiberglass

Ultrex is a protruded fiberglass that is 8 times stronger than vinyl and offers superior strength and long-lasting durability with little to no maintenance required. It has an acrylic finish for long-term durability and color retention. Ultrex doesn’t chip, dent, crack, or peel, and the color stays beautiful for many years.

• Traditional Wide Stiles
• Tall Bottom Rail

Marvin Sliding French Door Divided Lites and Hardware
