Another aspect is illumination. A glass patio door will allow a superior amount of sun light, providing your home with a lively feel. Direct sunlight will also help if you choose to have plants inside your house. Not to mention the fact that you'll save cash on your electric bill.
Security is an important aspect of any door in the home. Glass sliding doors offer very high quality security through specially designed locks to prevent or deter anyone trying to break an entry. An alarm system is a good idea to go along with the locks on the door.
Of course not all is good about glass sliding doors. For example the temperature; as you might have guessed, glass doors are not the best insulators. Glass normally adjusts to the surrounding temperature. In other words if the sun is striking the glass door, you'll end up with a green house affect where the sun will heat up the glass and dwelling. The same in an opposite manner will occur in the winter with the clod weather.
