Reply within one business day. Or call / text 763-250-3621.

A black interior white exterior patio door has a black frame, sash and handle on the room side and a plain white frame outside, so it matches black-framed windows or black trim inside while the back of the house stays white with the siding. JMB Builders orders it through ABC Supply and installs it across the Twin Cities metro. Send photos and we reply within one business day, or book a free in-home estimate.

  • Black inside, white outside, one door
  • Matches black interior windows and hardware
  • Slider or hinged, in lines that offer the split

Black interior window frames went from a design-magazine look to a normal order over the last few years, and once the windows in a kitchen or family room are black inside, a white patio door in the same wall looks unfinished. The usual answer is a two-tone door: black on the room side, white on the exterior so it matches the white windows and siding on the back of the house. The reverse, black outside and white inside, is a different page.

Not every line does the split in that direction. On vinyl sliders the interior is usually white, and a black interior is a laminate or a painted option on only some lines. Fiberglass and clad-wood patio doors offer a black interior more often, as paint or a factory finish, with any exterior color. The handle, the lock face and the screen frame are ordered in black to match the inside, and the exterior handle in white or a neutral metal.

The rest is a normal patio door replacement: the old door out, the subfloor and rim checked, a sill pan, the new unit set plumb and square, foamed, sealed and trimmed. The interior casing is usually painted black or white to go with the frame, and is quoted as its own line.

How it is priced: per door

Quoted in writing from your photos, with a reply within one business day. What moves the number:

  • Vinyl with a black interior laminate vs. fiberglass or clad wood with a black factory interior
  • Slider vs. hinged, and the width of the opening
  • Black interior hardware and screen frame, each a line on the order
  • Glass: clear, privacy, grids or triple pane
  • Rot at the subfloor or rim joist once the old door is out
  • Interior casing painted black or white, quoted as a separate line

How long it takes

One patio door in a sound opening: about a day on site. A black interior is a factory option, so the door is built to order; lead time runs with the line.

Black Interior, White Exterior Patio Door: questions, answered

Can a patio door be black inside and white outside?

Yes, on lines that offer a black interior finish. The exterior is white as standard, and the interior is ordered in black as a laminate, paint or factory finish depending on the material. The handle, lock face and screen frame on the room side are ordered in black to match.

Which patio doors come with a black interior?

Fiberglass and aluminum-clad wood patio doors offer a black interior most often, as a factory paint or finish. Some vinyl sliders offer a black interior laminate. Among the lines ABC Supply stocks there are options such as ProVia and MI that cover it; we confirm the current offering for your door style at the estimate.

Does the handle come in black?

Yes. The interior handle, the thumb-turn and the lock face are ordered in black, matte or gloss depending on the line, and the exterior handle in white or a metal finish. The screen door frame on the room side can be black too, so nothing white shows from inside.

Will a black interior patio door match my black interior windows?

Closely, and exactly if it is the same line as the windows. Black varies a little in sheen and depth between makers: a laminate black on vinyl reads slightly different from a painted black on fiberglass or clad wood. We hold a sample against your window frame before the order goes in.

Can the screen be black?

Yes. The sliding screen is ordered with a black frame and black or charcoal mesh on most lines that offer a black interior. On a slider the screen sits outside the glass, so its frame reads from inside through the glass; black keeps it from standing out.

Is a black interior patio door a custom order?

Yes. Stock patio doors are white inside and out. A black interior is a factory option, so the door is built with your size, glass, hardware and finish after the order goes in. We give you the lead time with the quote.
