According to a study conducted by the Freedonia Group Inc, the demand for doors and windows in the U.S. will rise at the rate of 6.6% per annum, reaching $31.2 billion in 2012. Sliding glass doors were first introduced in North America as an element of pre-war international style architecture. They were inspired by the Shoji and Fusuma type panel doors of Japan. Over the years, glass sliding doors have been incorporated as an essential part of many residential and commercial buildings.
