Glass Options
Kohltech Windows & Entrance Systems offers a selection of glass options designed to enhance the performance and aesthetic of their patio doors. These options cater to various needs, including energy efficiency, safety, and privacy.
Standard Glass:
- Clear Insulated Glass: This is the standard offering, consisting of two panes of tempered glass separated by an air or argon gas-filled spacer. This construction provides basic thermal insulation and durability.
Low-E Coatings:
- Low-E Glass (Various Types): Kohltech offers different types of Low-E (low-emissivity) coatings. These microscopically thin metallic layers are applied to the glass surface to reflect infrared heat. This means that in the summer, less heat from the sun enters your home, and in the winter, less heat from your home escapes. This leads to improved energy efficiency and reduced utility bills. Specific Low-E options may vary, but they generally aim to optimize solar heat gain coefficients (SHGC) and U-values for different climates.
Gas Fills:
- Argon Gas: In addition to air, an inert gas such as Argon can be used to fill the space between the glass panes. Argon is denser than air and acts as a better insulator, further improving the thermal performance of the insulated glass unit and contributing to lower U-values.
Tempered Glass:
- Tempered Glass: All glass used in Kohltech patio doors is tempered for safety. Tempered glass is heat-treated to increase its strength and to cause it to fracture into small, relatively harmless pieces when broken, rather than large, sharp shards. This makes it a safer choice for doors.
Specialty Glass Options:
- Obscure/Privacy Glass: For areas where privacy is desired, such as bathrooms or entry points visible from the street, obscure glass options are available. These may include textured or frosted finishes that allow light to pass through while obscuring the view.
- Decorative Glass: While not always standard, decorative glass options might be available to add a unique design element to the patio doors. These can include etched, patterned, or stained glass inserts.
Combination Options:
Kohltech patio doors often allow for combinations of these features. For instance, a door can be ordered with Low-E coating and Argon gas fill within a tempered glass unit for optimal energy efficiency and safety.
Hardware
Kohltech Windows & Entrance Systems offers a selection of patio door hardware designed for both functionality and aesthetic appeal. The available options cater to various styles of patio doors, including French, sliding, and garden patio doors.
Hardware Options for Patio Doors
- Handles: A range of handle styles is available to complement the overall design of your patio door. These can include traditional lever handles for French doors and more minimalist designs for sliding patio doors. Finishes vary to match other architectural hardware in your home.
- Locks: Security is a key consideration, and Kohltech patio doors come with robust locking mechanisms. For French and garden patio doors, multi-point locking systems are often standard, providing enhanced security by engaging multiple points along the door frame. Sliding patio doors typically feature secure latching systems.
- Hinges: The type of hinges depends on the door style. French and garden patio doors utilize durable hinges designed to support the weight and operation of in-swinging or out-swinging door panels. Sliding patio doors employ specialized rollers and tracks that allow for smooth and effortless operation.
- Roller Systems: For sliding patio doors, the quality of the roller system is paramount. Kohltech uses engineered rollers designed for longevity and ease of movement, ensuring that even large and heavy doors can be opened and closed with minimal effort.
- Keeper Systems: Keeper systems work in conjunction with locks to secure the door to the frame. These are designed for durability and precise alignment to ensure a tight seal and effective locking.
- Screen Door Hardware: For patio doors that incorporate or are designed to work with screens, appropriate hardware such as screen door handles, guides, and latches are available to ensure the screen functions effectively and stays securely in place.
- Finishes: Hardware is offered in a variety of finishes to match interior and exterior design preferences. Common finishes include brushed nickel, polished brass, oil-rubbed bronze, and white, among others.
The specific hardware configurations and options may vary depending on the model and style of Kohltech patio door selected.
Price Tier
Market Position: Mid-Range ($$)
The Kohltech Patio Doors offer a solid balance of performance and value, positioning them above basic entry-level options but below the highest-tier, custom-designed systems. Compared to budget-friendly patio doors, these systems typically feature more robust materials and better energy efficiency, while not quite reaching the bespoke customization and premium material grades found in luxury architectural lines.
Key Value Drivers:
- Material Composition: Constructed with durable vinyl frames, offering good thermal performance and resistance to warping and fading. The glass options often include Low-E coatings and argon gas fills for enhanced energy efficiency.
- Longevity and Warranty: Typically come with a manufacturer's warranty that covers material defects and operational components for a significant period, providing peace of mind for homeowners. This warranty is generally more comprehensive than that offered on budget models.
- Installation Labor Complexity: Designed for standard installation, making labor costs more predictable than highly customized or complex door systems.
- Aesthetics: Available in a range of standard finishes and configurations, allowing for aesthetic integration into most home designs without the premium cost associated with highly specialized architectural hardware or unique material veneers.
Best Suited For:
These doors are an excellent choice for homeowners looking for reliable, energy-efficient patio doors for their primary residence or for renovation projects where a good blend of quality, durability, and cost-effectiveness is desired. They are also a strong contender for spec builds or rental properties where long-term performance is important without the need for top-of-the-line luxury features.
Options-Styles
Kohltech Windows & Entrance Systems offers a selection of patio door styles designed to enhance both the aesthetics and functionality of your home. Their patio door offerings fall into several key categories, including French, sliding, garden, and tilt and turn patio doors.
Patio Door Styles:
- French Patio Doors: These classic doors offer a timeless elegance, featuring multiple glass panes within a single door frame. They can be hinged to swing either inward or outward, providing a versatile opening that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living spaces. French patio doors are ideal for creating a grand entrance or for maximizing natural light.
- Sliding Patio Doors: For spaces where swing clearance is a concern, sliding patio doors provide an excellent solution. These doors glide smoothly on a track, allowing for easy operation and maximizing usable floor space. They are designed to offer expansive views and ample light, making them a popular choice for modern homes.
- Garden Patio Doors: These doors are specifically designed to serve as a transition to garden spaces or other outdoor living areas. They often feature larger glass expanses to provide unobstructed views of the surrounding landscape and can be configured to open wide for a more immersive indoor-outdoor experience.
- Tilt and Turn Patio Doors: Offering advanced functionality, tilt and turn patio doors provide two distinct modes of operation. They can tilt inwards from the top for ventilation without compromising security, or swing inwards like a traditional door for full access. This dual functionality makes them highly adaptable to various weather conditions and ventilation needs.
