French doors for Finchley homes
The housing in Finchley is largely Edwardian terraces, 1930s semis and post-war flats. French doors suit Victorian back rooms and kitchen extensions where the opening is too narrow for bifolds, giving a full-width opening from two hinged leaves.
On 1930s semis, replacing a rear window and the wall below with French doors needs a properly sized lintel, so the structural work must be planned and approved. Modern homes can pair slim aluminium French doors with fixed side panels, keeping the doorway a manageable size while widening the glazed area.
Because our factory is a short drive away in Edmonton, surveys, fitting days and any aftercare visits are easy to arrange.
French doors are a pair of hinged doors that open together to connect a room with the garden, patio or balcony. Available in uPVC and aluminium, they suit homeowners wanting a wide, classic opening without the space needed by bifold or large sliding door systems.
- Wide, classic opening to the garden
- Both leaves open fully for access
- Side panels can add extra light
Questions from Finchley
Do I need planning permission for french doors in Finchley?
Parts of Finchley, including Finchley Church End, are conservation areas, so we check Barnet Council's guidance before quoting for window style changes. Replacing existing French doors or a back door on a house is usually permitted development and covered by FENSA, but forming a new or wider opening needs Building Regulations approval, and flats or listed buildings may need consent.
How soon can you fit french doors in Finchley?
Lead times vary by product and workload — confirmed with your quote. Being about 6.6 miles from our factory makes surveys, fitting days and aftercare visits easy to arrange.
What is the difference between French doors and bifold doors?
French doors are two hinged leaves, so the opening is limited to their combined width. Bifold doors use several panels that fold and stack to one side, opening up a much wider space. French doors are simpler and often suit narrower openings, while bifolds suit wider rear elevations.
Can I see samples before I decide?
Yes. Our showroom is at Unit G, 1 Anthony Way, London N18 3QT (Mon–Fri 8am–5pm), about 6.6 miles from Finchley. We can also bring samples to your home in Finchley at the free survey.
