A quick look at the internal sliding doors offered by major manufacturers today reveals colors and styles ranging from the ornate to the austere. No longer content with sameness, these elegant internal doors show the world through crystal-clear panes surrounded by stylish borders of metal or wood. 

Metal borders around the glass panes of internal doors give a feel of cool aluminum style. The same eye-pleasing shine that makes polished metal so gorgeous in the kitchen can impart a whole new look to your glass doors. Working well with white curtains and light-colored furnishings, they create a feel of lightness and openness when they catch the sun shining in. 

Wood lends a feeling of warmth with its golden color and luster. It reflects incoming sunlight and fills the room with a welcoming, companionable feel. When a wooden border surrounds the panes of sliding glass doors, it brings out browns and golds in the room and ties the whole look together.

Glass sliding doors come in a variety of colors and hold paint well, so any shade imaginable is possible.

Shoppers may choose a single pane, multiple floor-length panes or half-panes. As with curtains, longer shapes tend to accentuate the height of the room, while half-panes make more of a close, cozy feel. 

Concealed sliding doors are a Victorian craze making a big comeback. Also called cavity sliders, these chic doors were a frequent feature of the gentlemanly libraries and sitting rooms of yesteryear. Elegant glass panes slide into pockets to either side, making efficient use of space and lending a touch of retro style to the room. 

Some models combine the best features of hinged and glass sliding doors. In the center are two regular-sized doors made of glass opening in opposite directions. When they are completely open, they will slide along a track into pockets in the walls. The smaller door opens for individual traffic, and the larger, concealed sliding doors work well for social gatherings. 

Besides their classy looks, newer sliding doors can help keep the room temperature constant and lower energy bills. Older models had poor thermal properties and let a lot of heat escape. Today’s doors use special low-conducting glass and double-pane construction to keep heat inside in the winter and outside in summer. In hot climates, high-reflective panes can prevent uncomfortable heat buildup inside. Whatever temperature is desired, the sliding doors can help achieve it.

Those hoping to sell their homes can find no better value-booster than new-model concealed sliding doors. Buyers love the way they look, and they also know what a money-saver they are. Seeing well-constructed glass doors with good insulating properties, they know that their heating bill will be as low as possible, and the room will be neither hot nor drafty. This feature is more than just attractive; it’s also an assurance of energy efficiency and low power consumption.

The construction of the track sliding mechanism has improved, and the poor action of many older models is a thing of the past. Glass sliding doors that jammed, creaked, shuddered or just would not move at all have been replaced by those with smooth, effortless motion that remains flawless for many years. 

If you have been thinking about getting a new look for your living room, this is a good time. A wealth of new looks are out there waiting to be discovered, and there’s one for every home. Improving your home’s comfort and value has never been easier.
