Default Sliding patio door inside or outside?

I just replaced 3 6- foot sliders that had been installed with the
operating door on the outside and screen on the inside and simply lifting
them up to clear the bottom track removed the door. A sill and head jamb
bracket retained the non-op door.


- You did that when it was locked right? And it applies to every
brand, correct?

I can answer that. :-)

My Crestline door (granted: interior slider) can not be lifted and
removed. An interior header strip needs to be removed (~ 6 screws) in
order to remove the slider.

Once this header strip is removed, the slider simply tilts into the
room.

2 of the 3 locks would have to be unlocked to accomplish this.
