Sliding glass doors can open your home to the outdoors, letting in light and making certain areas of your home look bigger. They can also allow you to keep a better eye on your kids in the backyard or move large objects in and out of your home more easily than traditional doors or windows. However, sliding glass doors can also pose a security risk to your home and your family.

Glass doors might break more easily than other windows or doors during a storm or if an intruder tries to enter your home. That’s why it might be a good idea to choose impact-resistant glass for your sliding glass doors. This type of glass can increase strength and security, while still maintaining all the traditional benefits of sliding glass doors.
