FAQs
What is the best color for a patio door?
The best color for a patio door depends on your preference and your home’s color scheme. Black and white patio doors remain among the most popular patio door colors. Marvin Replacement patio doors come in seven exterior colors and have five interior color options, including our EverWood finish, which mimics the look of wood but without the same maintenance.
What door color adds the most value?
Patio door colors that add the most value to a home depends on homeowner preference. White patio doors can add value because they can enhance the impact of natural light. Dark color patio doors can add value to bring contrast to a home.
If you’re wondering which front door color brings the most value to your home, then you’ll want to consider a black front door. A Zillow study found homes with black front doors sold for up to $6,000 more than similar houses.
Interior Colors
We use the same tough acrylic finish on our four interior color options that we use on our exterior colors. You can also choose our stainable EverWood® finish for the look of wood windows, but without the maintenance.

Replacement Patio Door Glass Options
Our Marvin Replacement experts will walk you through energy efficient glass options to find the right selection for your home. Our options include four choices of glass coatings, various tints, plus specialty glass options.
Low E Glass
E stands for emissivity, which is a material’s ability to radiate energy. The number following the “E” indicates the number of metallic layers. The coatings are thin metallic layers designed to reflect heat. Marvin Replacement patio doors have four choices of Low E coatings. The metallic coatings can appear on annealed, tempered, laminated, and our tinted glass.
Marvin Replacement Low E options are below:
Primarily used in colder climates, Low E1 allows more heat in to warm a room while blocking heat loss.
Low E2 offers year-round performance in moderate climates. It will help retain heat in your home during the winter and keep heat out during the summer.
Low E3 rejects solar heat while letting light in, resulting in increased performance in climates with intense sun exposure.
Low E3/ERS provides maximum efficiency year-round in all conditions.
Specialty Glass
We offer specialty glass to best suit the needs of your home. You can choose tempered glass, laminated glass, and STC/OITC glass for specific rooms.
Tempered glass increases glass strength to help prevent breakage. Tempered glass is often required for patio doors and ideal for patio doors located in high-traffic areas.
Even more durable than tempered glass, laminated glass is often referred to as impact resistant or safety glass due to its vinyl inter layer that tends to remain in place when shattered.
Sound Transmission Class and Outdoor-Indoor Transmission Class glass has increased pane thickness on the room side and works in areas where exterior noise is a concern.
Decorative Glass
Decorative glass options fit well for different parts of your home. Our patterned options can provide privacy and natural light while our tint options can help with sunlight glare.
Selected: Rain
Screen Options
We have two durable aluminum-surround screen options that provide airflow while keeping insects out. Our standard Marvin Bright View™ fiberglass mesh screen has a clear view, sheds water, and resists dirt. Upgrade to our Hi-Transparency mesh screen for crisper views without losing any of our standard screen benefits. Color match your screen frames to your patio door for a seamless look.
Selected: Bright View Screen
Grilles + Divided Lites
We offer various divided lite patterns so you can replicate the look of your original windows. You can also add new architectural interest to your home with grilles. Choose from Simulated Divided Lites for classic appeal or Grilles-Between-the-Glass for easy cleaning.
Simulated
Divided Lites
Simulated divided lites get permanently adhered to the outside surface of glass to give the appearance of divided lites. Simulated divided lites have a spacer bar between the panes of glass.
Grilles-Between-the-Glass
Dividers placed between the panes of insulated glass to simulated authentic divided lites. GBGs allow for easier cleaning with no bars on the exterior or interior surface of the glass.
Patio Door Handles

Sliding French Doors
Sliding French doors showcase the traditional appeal of a French door with space-saving sliding operation. Choose a sliding French door if you like the classic look of a French door, but have limited exterior and interior space.
Why choose a sliding French patio door?
Sliding French doors can part in the middle or open to one side or the other, depending on your preference. The bi-parting sliding French doors can expand your indoor-outdoor living space for a seamless transition between the two while a uni-directional sliding French door can add a touch of elegance to a room.
