Advantages of Opening Glass Walls for Patios

The seamless merging of indoor-outdoor living spaces is increasingly popular, promising flexibility and connection with nature. With these sliding and folding patio doors, you can transform your living room into a captivating gateway to the outdoors, breathing life into your home. Experience natural light's health and space-enhancing perks and create a more inviting, versatile living environment with advanced opening glass systems.

1. Improve health with Natural Abundant Daylight: The first thing you’ll notice about a home with moveable glass walls is just how much natural light they let in. They flood your home with natural light, boosting mood and health by promoting vitamin D synthesis and healthy sleep patterns.
2. Natural Daylight: By maximizing sunlight infiltration, opening glass systems reduce dependence on artificial lighting, saving energy and lowering your carbon footprint.
3. Energy Efficiency & Insulation: NanaWall all-season sliding and folding patio doors prioritize energy efficiency, lowering energy usage and costs. Durable and efficient systems keep harsh weather out year-round and are independently tested for air, water, structural, operation, and forced entry. Traditional, outdated sliders often provide poor insulative capabilities. In colder climates or where building codes require specific thermal efficiency like California’s Title 24, systems can reach U-Values as low as 0.19.
4. Fresh Air Ventilation: Spread fresh air throughout your home. The fresh air and natural light that floods your new home through the moveable glass walls speak to increasingly important wellness trends sweeping through the real estate industry.
5. Amplified Living Space: Sliding and folding patio doors eliminate barriers, creating adaptable spaces that suit your lifestyle needs. Increase the space that you have drastically and create more usable living spaces both inside and out. Transform any single patio door, French doors, or even old sliders into wide openings that allow for fluid transitions. Systems provide up to 90% of the usable opening width and can fold in or out depending on your space planning.
6. Beyond Aesthetics - Adding Significant Home Value: Whether you're designing a new home or refining an existing one, the addition of opening glass doors and windows can significantly enhance the value of your home and living experience. Real estate agents often highlight this coveted lifestyle enhancement in their listings. Opening glass walls serve as a worthwhile investment, increasing natural light and allowing fresh air to permeate your spaces.
