Renewal by Andersen

★★★★★ 4.9 [Google (6,296 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Renewal+by+Andersen) as of August 2026

Fibrex® entry and sliding patio doors from the #1 J.D. Power-rated window company, backed by the same lifetime warranty as their windows.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Renewal by Andersen's Fibrex composite construction extends to its entry and patio door lines, and reviews that specifically call out door installations echo the window feedback — installers are frequently praised for punctuality, cleanup, and fit. A recurring caveat on patio doors involves water intrusion in the tracks or wind leakage after a few years, which owners report gets resolved through RbA's warranty service calls, though response times vary by which local affiliate handles your installation. As with their windows, expect a premium price point reflected in premium materials and a full-service installation process.

Window Nation

★★★★★ 4.7 [Google (5,272 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Window+Nation) as of August 2026

National vinyl window chain also installs steel and fiberglass entry doors with the same buy-more-save-more pricing.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Window Nation's patio and entry doors are backed by the same Installation Masters-certified crews and Lifetime Plus warranty as their windows, and most door-specific reviews echo that — quick, clean install days with minimal disruption. That said, a handful of documented complaints are door-specific: missing screw-cover plugs, a patio door lock that was difficult to operate, and one report of a screen door that detached within weeks of installation. Confirm your door's exact measurements and hardware function are checked at the final walkthrough before your crew leaves.

Power Home Remodeling

★★★★★ 4.6 [Google (4,852 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Power+Home+Remodeling) as of August 2026

Full-exterior remodeler adds entry and patio doors to its windows, roofing, siding, and solar lineup.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Power's POWER Freedom Series entry doors and sliding patio doors are built with ProVia, and door-specific reviews are genuinely positive — homeowners report noticeable draft elimination and lower heating bills after replacement, with most installs finishing in a few hours. As with Power's other trades, the most common complaint isn't the door itself but the door-to-door sales approach used to generate the appointment — you're free to request a consultation on your own schedule instead.
