    Can I Add Sidelights?

    Yes. Sidelights (fixed glass panels either side) widen the overall frame and add significantly more light. Top panels and fanlights are also available.

    Are French Doors Secure?

    All our French doors feature multi-point locking on both leaves, with shoot bolts top and bottom and toughened safety glass as standard.

    Do French Doors Let in Cold Air?

    Not modern ones. Our French doors feature multi-chamber profiles, double or triple glazing and compression seals that provide excellent insulation — comparable to a solid wall.

    French Doors vs Bi-Folds — What's Better?

    French doors are more affordable, require less structural work and suit most openings. Bi-folds offer a wider clear opening but cost significantly more. For standard-width openings, French doors are often the smarter choice.
