French doors for Islington homes
Around Islington you will mostly find Georgian terraces, Victorian houses, mansion blocks and council estates. Georgian and Regency homes historically used French doors onto gardens, so traditional glazing bars and suitable colours help new ones sit well in a conservation area.
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. French doors onto a Juliet balcony can bring light and air into upper-floor flats, but any change to the external opening may need freeholder and planning approval.
We make sash windows to match original designs, and supply secondary glazing for listed homes where replacements are not allowed. Parking is limited and heavily controlled, so we arrange permits and access in advance. Islington is about 5.6 miles from our Edmonton factory, close enough for quick aftercare visits.
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.
- Both leaves open fully for access
- Available in uPVC and aluminium
- Side panels can add extra light
Questions from Islington
Do I need planning permission for french doors in Islington?
Islington Council has many conservation areas, including Barnsbury and Canonbury, and lots of listed buildings, so we check your property's status before suggesting a design. 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 Islington?
Lead times vary by product and workload — confirmed with your quote. Being about 5.6 miles from our factory makes surveys, fitting days and aftercare visits easy to arrange.
Should French doors open inwards or outwards?
Outward-opening French doors are most common in the UK, as they save internal space and seal well against the weather. Inward opening can suit balconies or tight patios. We'll look at your room, patio and any steps outside before recommending the best arrangement.
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 5.6 miles from Islington. We can also bring samples to your home in Islington at the free survey.
