We purchased PGT sliding glass doors in November 2012 and thought we were choosing a top-of-the-line, hurricane-proof product. Well, after just two years, two of the four door panels proved that they couldn't even withstand a bit of humidity, as condensation and strange spots began to appear in the space between the interior/exterior glass panels, a problem that got steadily worse until we had to order two entirely new door panels. The replacement panels were provided for free (although we had to pay a couple hundred dollars for delivery and installation), and we got what we paid for. The replacement panels arrived caked in the yellow adhesive that the company uses to seal the edges of the glass with the frame. There was no protective plastic coating on the glass itself, and we have spent an hour with a putty knife and a pile of paper towels trying to clean all the gunk off. It's clear from the assembly that PGT's workers have no pride in what they are making--they are just trying to assemble something that looks vaguely like a sliding glass door and get it thrown into a box to be shipped off to unsuspecting customers.
The screen doors have been a nightmare from day one as well. The rollers and the track almost seem incompatible, and it's an epic struggle to open and close them every time we go in and out.
We had really high expectations for this product and could not have been more disappointed.
