French doors for Southgate homes
Around Southgate you will mostly find 1930s semis, Victorian villas, mansion flats and detached family houses. 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.
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. 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.
We are a short drive away in Edmonton, so the team that makes your frames can survey and fit them quickly.
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 Southgate
Do I need planning permission for french doors in Southgate?
Southgate Green is a conservation area, and some other streets have controls too, so we check with Enfield Council before quoting. Flats also need freeholder consent. 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 Southgate?
Lead times vary by product and workload — confirmed with your quote. Being about 4.1 miles from our factory makes surveys, fitting days and aftercare visits easy to arrange.
Can I replace a window with French doors?
Often, yes, but it means removing the wall below the window and possibly widening the opening, which needs a suitable lintel and Building Regulations approval. In flats, listed buildings and some conservation areas in Southgate, planning permission may also be needed. We'll explain the process during the survey.
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 4.1 miles from Southgate. We can also bring samples to your home in Southgate at the free survey.
