Inside and outside finishes can be discussed separately where the chosen range allows.
Handle, hinge and shootbolt finish: White
French doors depend on more than the handle colour. Hinges, shootbolts, restrictors, threshold detail, and locking keeps all need to suit the pair and the way the doors open.
Made to measure. We show the relevant colour and hardware options during your survey before anything is finalised.

Configuration Choices
This single French door route stays focused on the real hinged-door decisions: how the set is configured, how the threshold works, and how the hinges and shootbolts are specified.
French doors are often straightforward, but the right layout still depends on whether the opening is standard, wider, or taller than a simple two-leaf pair.
The classic two-leaf French door gives a clear central opening and suits most rear elevations where a clean garden connection matters more than a more complex sliding or folding system.
Sidelights widen the glazed composition without changing the basic French door operation, which is useful when the opening is broader than a simple pair can handle comfortably.
Toplights help on taller apertures where you want to preserve light above the doors while keeping the door leaves at practical everyday proportions.
Technical Details
Product fit
French doors are often the right answer where the opening is too modest for a bi-fold or slider, but still needs a proper connection to the garden. They give a balanced pair of hinged doors without the panel stack, track depth, or larger glass format of aluminium systems.
Optional Upgrade
French doors often sit on smaller rear openings where privacy still matters. Integral blinds can keep the pair looking tidy from inside and outside, especially when the doors include larger glass panes or fixed side panels.
A survey-led option for glazed door leaves and selected side panels.
Magnetic integral blinds
A slim magnetic slider raises, lowers, and tilts the blind inside the sealed glass unit.
Electric integral blinds
Remote operation suits larger panes, harder-to-reach glass, and cleaner contemporary rooms.
We check the door leaf, side-panel sizes, handle position, and glass specification before recommending magnetic or electric operation.

French doors are a timeless and versatile way to connect an internal room with a garden, patio, or terrace. Two full-height glazed panels hinged at the sides open outward from the centre, flooding the room with light and providing a wide, welcoming opening. Cii Double Glazing supplies French doors in both UPVC and aluminium across Essex and East London, a cost-effective alternative to bi-fold doors for standard apertures where a single, clean opening is all that is needed.

French Door Details
The strongest French-door pages are not about endless variants. They are about a clean opening, cleaner threshold joins, and the hardware details that stop the pair feeling flimsy in daily use.
Two leaves opening from the centre keep the room-to-garden connection simple and easy to use on standard openings.
Hinge choice changes how deliberate the finished pair feels, especially on cleaner contemporary frames and colour-matched hardware packages.
Head-and-cill shootbolts are one of the key details that keep the passive leaf tight, secure, and properly aligned in use.
A tidy meeting stile and bottom keep help the pair close solidly day after day, rather than feeling loose or rattly.
