Internal French Doors

Internal French doors are a glazed pair that meet in the middle of an opening, opening out from the centre to connect two rooms and share light and sightlines between them. They are the natural choice for a wider opening, whether between a living and dining room or onto a garden-facing space, where a single door would look mean and a solid pair would block the light. This collection sits within the wider glazed doors range as its pair-of-doors option for larger openings.

Glass That Shares the Light

Because French doors are mostly glass, effectively a fully glazed pair, they borrow far more daylight between rooms than a single door can, which is what makes them so effective at opening up a floor plan. Clear glass keeps the fullest view and the brightest link between spaces, while frosted or obscure glass keeps the same light but screens the view where a little privacy is wanted. They come in a choice of frame finishes, so the pair can be matched to the rest of the doors in the room.

French Doors or Double Doors?

French doors and double doors both fill a wider opening with a pair of doors, and the difference is mostly in the glazing and the look. French doors are typically fully glazed for maximum light, while our internal double doors include solid and part-glazed pairs for openings where you want more substance or privacy. If you are set on light above all, a fully glazed pair is the way to go; if you want a heavier, more traditional divide, the double doors are worth a look.

Fitting a Pair of Doors

A pair of doors needs the opening set up to take them, so it is worth planning the frame early. Hang them in a frame or lining sized for a double opening and squared up so both leaves meet cleanly down the middle, and choose handles and hinges to suit, since a pair usually needs extra hinges and often a set of flush bolts to hold one leaf closed while the other is used day to day.

FAQs

Internal French doors are a matched pair of glazed doors that meet in the middle of an opening and open outward from the centre. They are used to divide two rooms while keeping light and sightlines flowing between them, and because they are mostly glass they share far more daylight than a single door.

Both fill a wider opening with a pair of doors. French doors are typically fully glazed for maximum light, while double doors include solid and part-glazed pairs for openings where you want more substance or privacy. The choice comes down to how much glass and how much solid door you want across the opening.

French doors suit wider openings than a single door, and they are sold in a range of pair widths to match common double openings. It is best to measure the structural opening and choose a pair sized to fit with the frame allowed for, and each product page lists the sizes a particular design comes in.

Yes. Many are offered with clear glass for the fullest view and brightest link between rooms, or with frosted and obscure glass where you want the light but need to screen the view. Frosted French doors work well between a living space and a room that occasionally needs privacy.
