A commercial door and picture window combination makes way for a Chamberlin aluminum Panoramic Doors™ system, opening this San Diego home to its balcony and the city beyond.
Some views deserve more than a window.
At this San Diego residence, a single access door and fixed picture windows separated the interior from the balcony. The city was always in sight, but the connection between the two spaces was limited to one doorway.
Portellē began by removing the glass from the existing commercial-grade system. With the glazing removed, we disassembled the aluminum framing and cleared the old system from the site, preparing the opening for its next chapter.
In its place, we installed a Chamberlin aluminum door system from Panoramic Doors™. Four glass panels frame the neighboring architecture when closed. Opened and stacked to the side, they reveal a generous passage to the covered balcony, bringing fresh air and the rhythm of the city closer to home.
The dark aluminum frames sit comfortably alongside the exposed concrete and metal balcony railings. Every element feels at home in the setting, while the way the space can be enjoyed has changed entirely.
Reimagine the connection between your home and the outdoors. Talk with Portellē about replacing your existing doors and windows with a door system suited to your space.
