If you live in Chicago or the surrounding areas you’ve got to love weather. It’s what we have. If you like oversized patio doors like Marvin’s multi-slide expansive doors you’re going to love the fact that these doors meet aggressive Design Pressure (DP) and Performance Grade (PG ) ratings. DP is a calculation that determines how much wind pressure a window can withstand. PG is an expanded measurement that also verifies structural performance, water penetration and air infiltration resistance and a battery of other performance measures.
Chicagoland homeowners in even the strongest wind zones can choose to have taller and wider patio doors. You can take advantage of beautiful views and indoor/outdoor living when the weather is mild while maintaining protection from stormy and winter weather.
Check out this product review from Matt Risinger, a builder, to learn more about Marvin’s multi-slide low profile flush sill or high performance raised sill options that meet or exceed a PG50 rating (up to 67 mile per hour winds). This advanced performance is due to the sill design that uses a weather stripping to create a tight seal to keep out water.
The Marvin multi-slide door is a beautiful design with performance features like a weather tight seal engineered into the sill. Stop into our showroom to experience this door up-close, see for yourself the construction that makes this door perform when you need it to most.
