French doors

Dating back 400-500 years, French doors are normally identified by the way they open. French doors usually operate on hinges and open out from your house or conservatory towards your garden. In contrast, patio doors operate on a sliding mechanism and move from side to side.

Installing new UPVC French doors is a solid way to add value to your home. They provide an excellent source of natural light, outstanding energy efficiency, and all the security you need to keep your home safe. And because they open outwards, on warm days they are excellent for connecting your home to your garden and making the inside and outside feel at harmony.

French doors are normally identified by two things: first, they open on hinges out into the outdoors. And, secondly, French doors normally have a glass pane that stretches for most of the vertical length of the door. This is in line with the traditions of Renaissance architecture in the 16th and 17th century.
