Multi-slide and bi-fold patio door installations with structural wall framing in Boise, Eagle, and Meridian.
We handle the entire project: from sizing and installing structural header beams to installing 2, 3, and 4-panel sliding and bi-fold patio door systems from custom wood-clad, fiberglass, and vinyl, complete with low-profile sills and airtight weather seals.
We diagnose the underlying cause before starting work, protect your floors and furniture with drop cloths, and confirm the expected time and scope before work begins.
A patio door is the largest moving opening in your home. Because it sits right at deck or patio grade, any mistake in subfloor leveling, sill waterproofing, or header support causes 300-pound glass panels to bind or leak water into your flooring.
Why It Happens: Rain splashback and melting snow sit directly against the bottom of patio door tracks. Older doors set directly on bare plywood or concrete without a sill pan eventually rot the subfloor right inside the living room.
Where & How We Fix It: We strip the threshold down to solid structure, repair any water-damaged subfloor or rim joist, and install a continuous waterproofed sill pan sealed with commercial polyurethane sealant before setting the new frame.
Why It Happens: Multi-slide and French patio doors span wide openings. If the overhead header sags even 1/8 inch or the side jambs bow, the panels will scrape and the multipoint locks will not engage.
Where & How We Fix It: We laser-check the header and floor across the full span, shim the frame at every fastener point, and adjust the stainless steel tandem roller carriages so every panel glides with two fingers.
Why It Happens: Standard single-latch builders sliders flex in high winds and leave a gap at the center interlock rail where cold air and dust blow in.
Where & How We Fix It: We install French and multi-panel systems with interlocking weather-stripped meeting rails and multi-point mortise locking hardware that pulls the door slab tight at top, center, and bottom.
Why It Happens: New patio door frames often have a different depth than 20-year-old aluminum sliders, leaving an exposed gap in your interior hardwood, tile, or carpet.
Where & How We Fix It: We mill and fit custom oak, maple, or tile transition moldings on the inside and weather-sealed exterior casing on the patio side so the door looks built with the house.
Clear expectations before we arrive, careful protection while we work in your home, and a thorough walkthrough together before we wrap up.
We inspect your wall, calculate header beam sizing, and check load supports.
We build temporary supports, install the engineered header, and level the sill track.
We set the glass panels, adjust the multi-point locks, insulate the frame, and finish trim.
Typical project guide: Custom written project quote based on opening size, materials & scope (per door system). We bill hourly for repairs with an upfront time estimate before we start - and if we uncover hidden damage behind a wall or frame, we pause and show you first.
