The 6500 series is manufactured of high quality extruded PVC material with a wood core frame, providing an energy efficient patio door which is an ENERGY STAR Qualified product. This door offers a frame design with more rigidity and thermal conductivity than the very reliable 6500 series product line.
The unique design with a solid core of pre-fabricated finger joint wood wrapped in an innovative PVC extrusion offers ease of installation, increased strength, and lower conductivity of the colder temperatures. The wood core allows fasteners to be positioned in any location adapting easily to any type of wall construction, whether it would be steel stud, concrete, or your traditional wood framing construction. Also, when sidelites and transoms are part of the design, the 6500 series is best suited and recommended for this application, the increased rigidity in the frame system supports the load and stress applied by the surrounding fixed windows.
