C
oming up your front
walk, you might feel
that your door is plain,
heavy looking. Style-
wise, it’s really not in keeping
with your tastes. Then, when you
get inside and close the door
behind you, you find yourself lost
in darkness, like you’ve suddenly
stepped into a closet. How great
it would be to have a new door
that can let a bit more light in
your entryway, while at the same
time be much more interesting to
look at? But while you might find
it to be unattractive, you might
also be reluctant to throw out
and replace a perfectly sound
door. Fortunately, you don’t have
to. Instead, you can have it “re-
modeled” by a company called
Door Conversions.
As long as they’re in reason-
ably good structural condition,
your existing doors can actually
be easily converted with the
addition of superbly handcrafted,
wrought iron inserts with an
operable inner door and screen
that you can open and let the
breezes in. Door Conversions
also offers triple-glazed beveled
glass, paired with stylish raised
hardwood frames to create a
perfect union between old world
tradition and modern technol-
ogy. And the best part? You can
have this new look in just an
hour.
This quick turnaround is due
primarily to the fact that your
doors and windows never actual-
ly leave your home; all the work
is done onsite. The door remod-
eling process is as follows:
In order to work on them safe-
ly, the door(s) of your choice are
first removed and taken to the
on-site work area. With doors, a
portion is removed and replaced
with either a wrought iron or
beveled glass insert. Then the
door or window is re-hung, and
the transformation is complete.
If desired, sidelights and tran-
som windows can also be in-
stalled to coordinate with your
door’s new look. There’s no hard
construction. No need to replace
door jams, repair drywall, stucco
or moldings. Whether solid
wood, hollow core, paneled,
steel, or fiberglass, any interior or
exterior door or window can be
remodeled in about an hour.
An additional benefit to having
your doors and windows remod-
eled is that the new look can be
yours at a fraction of the price of
standard replacement doors and
windows. And you could hardly
argue with the final result. It’s a
wonderfully dramatic trans-
formation from dark and boring
to airy and breathtaking. In
about an hour, your doors and
windows can be given a beautiful
new life.
Door Conversions is the recog-
nized leader in the industry and
serves the greater Sacramento
area, Napa Valley, San Diego,
Orange County, Riverside, South
Bay, Las Vegas, Phoenix and
Colorado. For more information
or a free consultation, visit Door
Conversions in the Pavilion
Building at the Home & Land-
scape Expo.

P
atio Bra provides high-
end shade solutions for
the year-round enjoy-
ment of your outdoor
living space. They offer an array
of products from outdoor cur-
tains, roll down shades, and
their flagship product, the Patio
Bra. Patio Bra is a high quality
laminated solid vinyl or vinyl
encapsulated mesh that attach-
es to the top of your existing
aluminum, wood, steel, or vinyl
patio cover. The Patio Bra is
designed to withstand high
winds, rain, and harmful UV
rays … giving you protection
from the elements all year long.
For protection from the sun in
late evening or early morning,
their new selection of patio
curtains are an excellent choice.
The curtains are see-through so
you can still see the kids in the
pool or your beautiful yard, and
the open mesh allows air to flow
freely. They are offered in two
different mounting options; a
traditional curtain rod and
grommets, or a newly designed
track system allows for mount-
ing in a variety of installations.
The Patio Bra team of experi-
enced estimators provide free in
home estimates to fit any bud-
get. They also offer a do-it-
yourself program for those who
like a more hands on approach
to home improvement. You can
learn more by visiting their
display in the Pavilion Building
at the Home & Landscape Expo
this weekend.
