Full Answer. Sliding doors are the most common ones used for patios. Sizes to choose from include a 60-inch door with a frame size of 59 1/2 by 79 1/2 inches; a 72-inch door with a frame size of 71 1/2 by 79 1/2 inches; and a 96-inch door with a frame size of 95 1/2 by 79 1/2 inches.
The standard size for exterior sliding glass doors is 6-feet 8-inches high. In houses with high ceilings, 8-foot-high sliding glass doors can add a striking design element. Many door manufacturers also offer matching transom windows designed to fit above the doors. Standard widths are 6 and 8 feet, although some manufacturers offer 3- and 4-panel sliders, which can span a width of 12 feet. Many of the problems typically associated with sliding glass doors--namely draftiness and break-in potential--have been addressed by door manufacturers.
