Victorian Kitchen & Bath Remodel Project


High-Perfomance French Doors Video

Cordell Burton from Pella Windows in Iowa is with Bob to show him the inswinging French doors that will be installed in the Rowley Victorian. An inswinging door allows for more room on the patio and easier placement of furniture. It is constructed of solid wood and double-pane, low-e glass separated into panes with architectural grids. The glass has low-emissivity layers that keep warmth inside during cold months and hot air from penetrating during the warm summer months. It reduces 77 percent of heat gain in warm weather. The doors cost between $1800 and $2000.
