As with all of our other windows and doors, engineered timber is used for the French doors, whether it be Redwood, Meranti or Oak.
Double opening French doors may be designed to open inwards or outwards as best suits your interior layout and have been developed for security, performance and long life.
The master door comes with a multi-point locking system, including hook bolts and a deadlock, while the slave door is secured with strong, discreet flush bolts. The timber sections are designed to resist warping and twisting, supported by sturdy hinges and a reliable locking system. Additionally, the doors are coated with high-performance paint for long-lasting durability and low maintenance.
Over the years, advancements in technology have significantly improved the operation, draught sealing, and aesthetics of French doors. Modern manufacturing techniques now allow us to offer virtually any style of French door and frame, along with a variety of glazing units, fittings, and timber panels.
Our timber French doors are available in a wide range of finishes or stains, and can be matched to any RAL colour, as well as shades from Farrow & Ball or Fired Earth. We also offer dual colours, allowing you to choose a different colour for the interior if desired.
“Timber French doors add light, style and a classic feel to any home. While traditional wood can warp or swell with the seasons, engineered timber is built to last. Its layered construction resists movement, so your doors stay strong, smooth to open, and beautifully in shape for years to come.”

Timber French doors add a serene, elegant look to any home. Their traditional charm, combined with the warmth of natural wood, enhances both interior and exterior aesthetics, making them a perfect choice for period properties or homes looking for a classic touch.
Thanks to large glazed panels, timber French doors can let ample natural light flood into your home, transforming it into a bright, airy space. They provide an unobstructed view of outdoor spaces, seamlessly connecting the indoors with the garden or patio.
Wood’s natural insulating properties make timber French doors highly energy efficient. They help maintain a comfortable indoor temperature by reducing heat loss in winter and keeping your home cool in summer, contributing to lower energy costs.
