I'm looking to buy a sliding door that leads to my deck. It's kind of like a standard sliding door but has a large picture window connected, almost giving it a 3-panel appearance. The dimensions are 105 inches wide and 80 inches tall with three equally sized sections. I can't share pictures here, but I just need some advice on what brands might be good for colder climates. Also, should I just look for a tempered glass version of a door-sized picture window? So far, I've had no luck finding anything close to that size at Lowe's or Home Depot.

It sounds like you're dealing with a patio door setup. Make sure the door is made of tempered glass, and you might need a coated version depending on local building codes. Check out options like the JELD-WEN V4500 Multi-Slide at Home Depot—it's pretty good and fits a similar description to what you're looking for.
Thanks for the recommendation! That model does look like what I need. Just hoping to keep costs down; I really don't want to drop 5k on a door.
