Reduced VOCs

The AuraLast® manufacturing process releases 96 percent fewer VOCs than traditional treatments, one more reason that AuraLast--The Worry-Free Wood® really is worry-free. AuraLast is JELD-WEN's exclusive water-based wood protection process. Unlike typical solvent-based dip treatments that only coat a thin layer on the wood's surface, AuraLast delivers durable 100 percent surface-to-core protection. AuraLast is 100 percent real wood, so homeowners don't have to sacrifice the beautiful appearance for industry-leading protection.

Because patio doors are constantly exposed to weather --and moisture --wood rot can be an issue for homeowners everywhere. JELD-WEN® Wood Patio Doors with exclusive AuraLast Wood are guaranteed not to rot for 20 years.

Sustainability at JELD-WEN

At JELD-WEN, sustainability is nothing new. With origins rooted in wood product manufacturing, our legacy has been to make windows, doors and components in a manner consistent with efficient use of what nature provides. In effect, we've always strived to make stiles and sash, not sawdust.

To us, minimizing waste has always made good ecological and business sense. Our mission is to develop high performance, high-value products that satisfy our customers' needs, while also caring for our communities by seeking ways to reduce our impact on the environment. We also realize that there is still work to be done. Sustainability is a journey, and our on-going efforts will remain directed toward continual improvement of our products, processes and culture.

We do this not because it's popular.

We do it because it's the right thing to do.

Pine

AuraLast The Worry Free Wood® pine provides the beautiful look of wood and the worry free protection from wood rot, water saturation and termites. Distinct color variations occur and the grain can appear straight or erratic depending on how it is cut from the log. The wood will darken and yellow with age, adding character and charm. It machines to a fine, smooth finish and easily accepts lighter stains and paint. Staining is recommended to achieve a uniform appearance because pine naturally contains resins that can affect penetration. Knots should be sealed before painting. This specie is available for both the exterior and interior of the patio door.

Corner Blocks

With our corner blocks, you can ensure every element of your patio door reflects your design preference. Corner blocks are available in pine only.
