Plan a custom sliding patio door

Panel count and clear opening differ

A two-, three- or four-panel layout describes the panels across the frame. It does not tell you how many panels move or how wide the passage will be. Compare each series’ tracks and operating arrangement, then confirm the overall frame size and usable opening for your chosen layout.

Compare glass and threshold details

For Midwest and Northeast homes, review the whole-door U-factor and SHGC available for the chosen series and glass package. Check the threshold, sill support, drainage and exposure with your installer. Compare equivalent sizes and layouts when assessing performance; glass-only figures do not describe the complete door.

Price the actual panel arrangement

Choose an available series, size, layout, glass and finish in the designer. Review the configured price and the separate delivery, tax and order-level charges. Wide frames and large panels need a receiving and handling plan; confirm site access and installation timing before placing your order.

Four-panel and large sliding patio doors

Start with the panel arrangement, then compare the actual frame dimensions. A four-panel door can have two fixed outer panels and two sliding center panels. A stacking system uses multiple tracks to move panels behind one another. The number of panels does not equal the number that open.

Capri

2, 3, 4 panel options

Rimini

3, 6 panel options

Multi-track stacking panels; three- and six-panel layouts.

Aria

3, 6 panel options

Multi-track stacking panels; three- and six-panel layouts.

A 12-foot opening is not a 144-inch frame

Nominal opening labels and actual frame dimensions differ. Compare the frame width and height shown on each configuration, and confirm the rough opening and installation allowance with your installer. An 8-foot nominal height may have a 95.25-inch frame in the catalog.

Check the passage, tracks and handling

Ask for the clear opening of the selected layout, rather than dividing the frame width by the panel count. Confirm sill support, drainage, screen options, panel handling and delivery access. Large frames and glass panels need a suitable receiving and installation plan.

The linked examples are supplied as unassembled kits. Review their exact glass, finish and handle selections before comparing prices. US examples use Low-E 272 / clear; Canadian examples use Low-E 180 / clear. Production is estimated at 20–30 business days, with freight transit afterward.

Sliding patio doors: panel configurations and operation by series

Panes ships four patio-door series — Capri, Amalfi, Rimini and Aria. Each series offers specific panel counts and operation layouts; the panel vocabulary below describes what each configuration code means and which series supports it. All configurations are supply-only; freight, measuring and installation are arranged with your contractor.

Series panel configurations

Panel notation

• O = Operating panel. The panel slides in its track.
• X = Fixed panel (Rimini + Aria). The panel does not move.
• L = Fixed left-side position (Capri + Amalfi). Does not move.
• R = Fixed right-side position (Capri + Amalfi). Does not move.
• Read codes outside-left to outside-right. OXX means the leftmost panel operates; the two to its right are fixed. OXXXXO means both end panels operate (bi-parting).

Choose the operating direction before the series

Decide whether the door should slide left-to-right, right-to-left or bi-part toward the center. Operating direction is viewed from OUTSIDE the opening. A left-to-right opening (OXX on Rimini/Aria, LO on Capri/Amalfi) has the moving panel start on the left and slide to the right. Bi-parting (OXXXXO on Rimini and Aria) only applies to 6-panel configurations.

Confirm the clear passage, not the panel width

A sliding patio door never gives a clear passage equal to the full opening width. In a 3-panel OXX, the operating panel is roughly one-third of the opening width; the clear passage is slightly less than that single-panel width because of the frame interlock. In a 6-panel OXXXXO bi-parting, the clear passage is roughly two panel widths once both ends are open. Confirm clear-passage dimensions on the series page before ordering.

Pick glazing and insulation by series

Capri and Amalfi ship with double-pane Low-E glass and argon as standard. Rimini and Aria support the same glass package with heavier frames for larger openings. Triple-pane glass is available on specific configurations — confirm the glass package on the configured product page for each series. Each series page shows the exact U-factor, SHGC and VT for the selected glass choice.

Order unassembled kit vs. factory-assembled

Capri, Amalfi, Rimini and Aria ship as unassembled kits by default (listed as "Unassembled (Kit)" in the configured product page). Panels, tracks, hardware and screens arrive separately for site assembly. Confirm freight access and receiving arrangements for the kit crate — individual panels are large and heavy.

Patio-door questions

What panel configurations do Panes sliding patio doors support?

Panes offers 2-panel, 3-panel, 4-panel and 6-panel configurations. 2-panel and 4-panel are available on Capri and Amalfi only. 3-panel is available across all four series (Capri, Amalfi, Rimini, Aria). 6-panel bi-parting (OXXXXO) is available on Rimini and Aria. See the series summary for the exact codes.

What is a bi-parting patio door?

A bi-parting patio door has operating panels at BOTH ends that slide toward the center. The Panes 6-panel OXXXXO on Rimini and Aria is a bi-parting configuration: the four center panels are fixed and the two end panels operate. Bi-parting is not available on 2-, 3- or 4-panel configurations.

What does OXX, XXO or OXXXXO mean?

These are panel-configuration codes read from outside-left to outside-right. O = operating (slides), X = fixed. OXX is 3-panel with the left panel operating; XXO is 3-panel with the right panel operating. OXXXXO is 6-panel bi-parting (both ends operate, four centers fixed). Panes Rimini and Aria use this notation. Capri and Amalfi use L/R instead of X for the fixed positions.

What is the widest Panes sliding patio door?

The 6-panel OXXXXO configurations on Rimini and Aria support the widest openings. Specific maximum widths depend on glass package, panel height and freight constraints. Open the series configurator for the exact size limits of each configuration.

Does the sliding patio door come with a screen?

Standard screen inclusion varies by series. Capri and Amalfi ship with a standard screen; Rimini and Aria configurations marked "door_custom_no_screen" ship without a screen. Confirm screen inclusion on each series configurator.
