French Doors Northampton
French doors offer a more traditional alternative to bifolds, a symmetrical pair of doors opening fully outward (or inward, depending on the space available) to connect a room with a garden or patio. We supply and install French doors across Northampton and Milton Keynes, in uPVC, aluminium and timber.
Why Choose French Doors
A classic, symmetrical appearance that suits both period and contemporary properties
A simpler, often more cost-effective option than bifolds for a standard-width opening
Available in a wide range of materials and finishes to match your existing windows and doors
A good option where full-width bifold doors aren't needed or the opening doesn't suit them
Choosing a Material
uPVC French doors offer the most budget-friendly, low-maintenance option. Aluminium gives slimmer frames and a more contemporary look, often matching aluminium windows elsewhere on the property. Timber French doors suit period properties where authenticity matters, though they need more ongoing maintenance than uPVC or aluminium.
What Installation Involves
A survey to measure the opening and confirm material, colour and glazing options
Removing any existing door and checking the surrounding structure
