Timber French Doors
Beauty meets versatility. Our elegantly robust timber French doors are offered in a wide range of designs, in fact nearly as many as our front doors. So whether you’re looking to fill your rooms with light, seamlessly match your windows, or even opt for less glass to create an imposing main entrance, we have the design for you.
All of our timber doors are crafted with engineered timber, using energy-efficient double glazing. We then finish them with long-lasting weatherproofing, including a microporous paint that’s guaranteed for 12 years.
You can personalise your doors with bespoke options like slim glazing bars, gorgeous paneling and beautiful ironmongery, ensuring that your French doors are precisely how you want them to be.
Tilt and Turn Doors
Tilt and turn is one of the most versatile opening designs available. A single handle controls two opening actions. Tilt inwards from the top for controlled ventilation, or open your door inwards, just like a regular door, and no handle needed outside. Available in timber, aluminium and premium uPVC materials.
This door design is a natural choice for Juliet balconies and even giving access to terraces and flat roofs. You get the ventilation that a standard French door simply can’t offer, with the security of a narrow tilt opening that nobody can pass through.
But it works equally well as a window on any floor, particularly where easy cleaning, background airflow or larger unbroken panes of glass are a priority. Choose from a wide range of colours and ironmongery for a product that brings together practicality, security and a beautifully refined finish.
Steel Look French Doors
Style without compromise. Achieve iconic steel effect aesthetics and advanced security and heat efficiency with our gorgeous collection of external aluminium doors.
With exceptional attention to detail, our steel-look doors include authentic design features such as ultra slim horizontal and vertical glazing bars, and an exclusive Aluco ‘floating lock’, which maximises the glazing in the bottom panel.
Sleek side and overhead glazed panels can mirror the slim sightlines of the doors, providing an unrivalled vista and an outstanding ingress of light.
Choose from 200 RAL colours (you can even have a different colour on each side), and select your furniture to add the finishing touches to your steel-look doors.
Evolution French Doors
Handcrafted and virtually maintenance free. Our Evolution PVCu French doors combine timber look aesthetics with outstanding security and thermal efficiency.
Choose from traditional or contemporary designs and a wide range of standard and RAL colours, all with an authentic timber effect foil finish. Your choice from an extensive collection of door furniture creates the perfect doors for your home.
Available opening in or out, with matching side panels or glazed top panels and toughened glass, your doors will be installed by our highly experienced team and come with a 10 year guarantee for complete peace of mind.
Customers Often Ask
Here's some of the questions we often get asked about French entrance doors:
What are French doors?
French doors are a type of door characterised by their light construction and the inclusion of multiple glass panes which often extend almost the entire length of the door. Resembling a set of large windows that function as doors, they are usually installed in pairs and are known for allowing abundant natural light into the space and creating a visual connection between indoor and outdoor environments.
What are the benefits of French doors?
The benefits of French doors include enhancing the aesthetic appeal of both traditional and contemporary homes, allowing in plenty of natural light, and improving air circulation through cross-ventilation. They also facilitate a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, which is particularly advantageous for access to patios and gardens. Modern French doors offer increased energy efficiency with features like double-glazing and weather-stripping - contributing to reduced energy costs and a lower carbon footprint.
Can French doors be customised?
Yes, French entrance doors can be extensively customised to meet your specific aesthetic and functional needs. They are available in a range of materials including traditional wood, aluminium and uPVC. Made to fit your exact dimensions, you can choose from various styles, finishes and decorative features such as: arched frames, glazing bars & obscured glass.
What areas do you cover?
Our area includes: Suffolk (Haverhill, Felixstowe, Lowestoft, Ipswich, Newmarket, Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury etc.), Cambridgeshire (St Ives, St Neots, Cambridge, Peterborough, Huntingdon, Wisbech, Ely etc.), Norfolk (Gorleston-on-Sea, Great Yarmouth, King’s Lynn, Dereham, Thetford, Norwich etc.) and North Essex.
What style and material options are there?
They are available in traditional or contemporary timber styles, steel look, aluminium or PVCu. French doors can be opened in or out, with either door opening first, depending on your room layout. You can have a different colour on the outside to the inside to reflect your interior décor. Glazing bars add a traditional or contemporary feel, and there’s a range of ironmongery accessories. Contemporary timber French doors are ideal for modern homes while offering interesting possibilities for older properties too. Characterised by an internal square moulded profile, they are often specified with stainless steel accessories. Our PVCu French doors cover all styles, come in all colours and have an elegant wood-grain effect finish. Steel look and aluminium French doors are characterised by their sleek, slim sightlines and architectural feel. They also come with a wide range of colours and furniture options.
