Which sliding patio door is the best quality? Which would you choose?

last year

Hi I'm looking for a new sliding patio door for my home and have had a couple of quotes so far but don't know which one to go with so I'm hoping you guys can help me out. First thing the door is 96x80, the first quote I got was from HD for a Milgard trinsic v300 for $2,700 not including install, next was for Provia aspect for $5300 including install, next was for Alside climatech 366 for $4900-5600 depending on the style, and the same company who gave me a quote for Provia said they carry Marvin too and the price would be very similar to Provia but didn't tell me what Marvin door it would be. I'm gonna have another company come out and give me a Pella quote on friday but so far which ones would you go with and why? I want the best quality.

side not: all these are vinyl doors should I be looking for fiberglass and triple pane for best thermal efficiency or is vinyl fine? I live in Phoenix where temps can get 115 and up

Of the brands you mention the Provia would be my first choice. Marvin second, Milgard further down the line in third and then anything Alside or Pella at the very bottom of any list.

Absolutely. When I said Milgard was further down the line I meant it is closer to the junk at the bottom than the top of the food chart.

If i go with Provia is there a signifigant performance gain when going from aspect to the endure line? Also are there any brands you prefer over Provia?

As I mentioned on the other site, I'd put the Marvin at the top of the list based on your location. If these were hinged doors Provia would be the choice, but for a vinyl slider they aren't great.
