French doors have always been a timelessly elegant door option since their beginnings in 17th century France. With progressions in industry manufacturing, we can also design ultramodern French doors that take the characteristics of their descendants but add a contemporary touch. We offer uPVC, aluminium and timber French doors, all of which can be created in a plethora of attractive colours and finishes, and with traditional hardware and decorative features to finish the design.
French doors feature two glass panelled doors. With their handles located in the middle, where the two doors meet, you can choose either open-in or open-out configuration, depending on your space restrictions. They provide a stylish way to access your garden. Opened wide on a summer’s day, French doors will merge your interior and exterior space. When closed, they provide excellent levels of security and energy efficiency, yet let the natural light brighten the room.
