Why Buy French Doors from Emerald Doors?

Elegant, Timeless Look

A pair of glazed French doors adds instant character and a sense of space, working just as well in period homes as in modern ones.

Light Between or Into Rooms

The large glazed panels let light flow between rooms inside, or bring the garden into your home when used as external doors.

Internal and External Options

Choose internal French doors to divide living spaces, or external French doors that are double-glazed, weatherproof and secure for outside use.

Side Panel and Offset Choices

Add fixed side panels to widen the opening and let in more light, or choose offset doors with an unequal pair for narrower openings.

Toughened Safety Glass

Our French doors use toughened safety glass that meets BS EN 12150, far stronger than ordinary glass and safer if knocked.

10 Year Guarantee

Every French door is backed by our conditional 10-year guarantee against faulty materials or workmanship.

FAQ About French Doors

What are French doors?

French doors are a pair of doors hinged on their outer edges that meet in the middle and open from the centre. They are usually largely glazed to let in light, and can be used inside to divide rooms or outside onto a garden or patio.

What is the difference between internal and external French doors?

Internal French doors divide rooms and focus on light and looks. External French doors are built for outside use, with double glazing, weather seals and multipoint locking for security and insulation. Do not fit an internal French door as an external one.

What are French doors with side panels?

Side panels, also called sidelights, are fixed glazed panels fitted either side of the doors. They widen the overall opening and let in more light, which suits larger gaps where the doors alone would be too narrow.

What are offset French doors?

Offset French doors are an unequal pair, with one leaf wider than the other. They give the French door look in openings that are too narrow for an even pair, so you still get a wide main door with a slimmer second leaf.

What sizes do French doors come in, and can they be made to measure?

We stock common UK pair sizes to suit standard openings, and make French doors to measure for non-standard gaps. Measure the width and height of your opening, and our custom-made service covers sizes that are not standard.

Can French doors be private?

Yes. Clear glass gives the most light, while frosted or obscure glass keeps the French door look but blocks the view, which suits studies, bedrooms and bathrooms.

Are external French doors secure and warm?

Yes. Our external French doors use double glazing, weather seals and multipoint locking, so they stay secure and help keep the heat in, unlike internal French doors, which are not built for the weather.

What finishes do French doors come in?

French doors come in oak, walnut, white and grey finishes, in traditional and contemporary styles, so you can match them to the rest of your internal or external doors.
