Key Product Features
Low-Maintenance Design
The defining feature of the PERMA-SHIELD® door is its vinyl-clad construction on both the inside and outside.4 This material is highly resistant to scratches, dents, and weather damage, which means the door maintains its appearance for years without the need for painting or staining.5 This makes it a great solution for those who want the look of a premium door with very little maintenance.
Slim Profile and Enhanced Security
This door is designed with sleek, slim frames to provide a larger glass area for a more expansive view.6 For security and weather protection, the door features a reach-out lock mechanism that pulls the door panel tightly into the frame, creating a secure, weathertight seal.7
Smooth and Reliable Operation
The door panels are designed for a smooth, effortless glide.8 They operate on dual ball-bearing rollers and a stainless steel capped track, ensuring a quiet and reliable opening and closing motion over time.9
Optional Blinds-Between-the-Glass
For added convenience and light control, the PERMA-SHIELD® gliding door is available with blinds-between-the-glass.10 These blinds are protected between the panes of insulated glass, keeping them free from dust and damage and eliminating the need for traditional window coverings.11
