- Is fiberglass better than wood or steel for a patio door?
- Fiberglass will not rot or warp like wood and resists dents better than steel. It also holds its finish longer in sun and rain, which matters for an exterior door.
- What does Low-E glass with grilles between the glass mean?
- Low-E coating reflects heat and UV while letting light through. Grilles between the glass give the divided-light look without inner surfaces that collect dust.
- What is the ASSA 2002 lock case?
- It is a multipoint lock case used in the door edge. It is a sturdier grade than common builder locks, and it is worth confirming the handle and cylinder come with the unit.
- Does the left-hand outswing fit my opening?
- The door is 72 in wide and 80 in high with a 4-9/16 in jamb, a standard wall depth. Left-hand outswing means the active panel hinges on the left as seen from outside and swings out.
- What comes in the box?
- Typically the door unit with frame, glass and lock case; handles, hinges and trim may be separate. Confirm the exact contents with the seller before buying.
- How does it compare with other fiberglass French doors?
- The F-3500 pairs a fiberglass skin and Low-E sealed grilles with an ASSA 2002 lock case, which is sturdier than the builder-grade hardware on many rivals. Compare jamb depth, handing and glass options against other fiberglass units before ordering.
