Patio Doors in Fort Thomas
Fort Thomas homes from the early 1900s sit on wide, tree-lined lots above the river — the kind of place a wide patio door onto the yard makes sense. We build them to the opening you've got. Call (513) 657-2471.
Fort Thomas
Patio Doors for Fort Thomas homes
Fort Thomas grew up around the old Army post, and ZIP 41075 is full of stately early-1900s homes on deep, tree-lined lots above the river. These houses have room out back — patios, gardens, mature yards — and a wide patio door makes the most of it. But a hundred-year-old wall has settled, and a big opening that's gone out of square needs a door fit to it, not forced into it.
We fit wide sliding and French patio doors that open the back of the house to the yard. Low-E insulated glass keeps the heat in through a Northern Kentucky winter. We square up and shim the opening, set the track dead level so a heavy panel still rolls easy, and install multi-point locks that seat the door tight. Our crews do the whole job themselves and leave the site clean.

Patio Door Professionals
Built for Beauty and Performance
A patio door is a big piece of glass that gets used every day, so it has to seal, glide, and hold up. We install sliding doors with a smooth-glide track, elegant French doors that swing, and hinged options — all with energy-efficient glass and low, easy-to-cross thresholds.
Want the bigger picture? Pair it with replacement windows or a new entry door, and ask about rolling it into one 0%-for-24-months project. For efficiency ratings, the Energy Star program is a good reference.

Common questions
Patio Doors FAQs
Can you fit a wider patio door on an early-1900s Fort Thomas home?
Often, yes — these older homes usually have the wall space for it. We check the header and framing first to see how wide we can safely go, then build the door to the opening. On a settled hundred-year-old wall the fit is everything, so we measure carefully before quoting.
Sliding or French patio doors — which should I choose?
Sliding doors save space since nothing swings into the room and maximize glass; French doors make a wider, more dramatic opening. It comes down to your room layout and look — we help you decide.
Are patio doors energy efficient?
Ours are, with Low-E insulated glass, weatherstripping, and a properly sealed threshold. A new patio door usually seals far tighter than the drafty original.
Are sliding patio doors secure?
Yes — we use multi-point locking hardware and tough glass. Sliders can also be fitted with additional locks and sensors for extra peace of mind.
