A garden door typically leads to a backyard. Lower level apartments as well as houses have these types of doors. While a sliding glass door is common, French doors that lead outside are often preferred.
French doors are a matched, double door set that opens and closes in the center. These double panels make a convenient garden entrance and exit because, unlike the sliding glass door types, both sides open up to create one large space. The bigger space means easier furniture moving, as a sliding glass door typically has one stationary side and only one panel that slides. This leaves only half of the width of the doorway in which to move items in and out. Many sofas and other large furniture items don't fit in only half of a doorway.In many houses, a garden door opens onto a backyard deck. There may be a few stairs that lead from the deck into the yard. Basement apartments may have a small cement patio and garden area rather than a sundeck. Many homes have a garden door located between the kitchen and family room or dining area.
