Ambler Custom French Door Installation in Stucco Opening
This Ambler, PA project featured a custom French door installation in an existing stucco opening. Sunrise v4500 sliding patio doors with built-in blinds and Low E glass were used to maximize light while improving efficiency. The result delivers expansive views, reduced solar heat gain, and protection against floor fading without sacrificing comfort.
Project Overview
The homeowner wanted to enhance their outdoor living space with elegant French doors that offered wide views and easy patio access. Because the home features a stucco exterior, careful planning was required to ensure a clean installation without compromising the surrounding finish.
Our team installed custom Sunrise v4500 sliding patio doors in a white finish, designed to fit precisely within the existing stucco opening. The doors feature built-in blinds for light control and privacy, along with Low E Plus glass filled with argon gas to boost thermal performance. Special attention was given to sealing and trim details to maintain the integrity of the stucco exterior.
Results
The new French doors transformed the patio area by flooding the interior with natural light while maintaining excellent energy efficiency. Despite the large glass surface, the Low-E coating blocks excessive solar heat and harmful UV rays, helping to prevent fading of floors and interior furnishings. The finished result blends seamlessly with the home’s architecture and delivers both visual impact and long-term performance.
