French doors for Whetstone homes

The housing in Whetstone is largely 1930s semis, Victorian cottages and post-war flats near the High Road. 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. In larger homes, French doors work well from dining rooms and studies onto terraces, and matching them to existing window styles keeps the house looking coherent.

The High Road carries constant traffic, so for homes on or near it, acoustic double glazing can help. At about 6 miles from our factory, Whetstone is easy to reach for surveys and follow-up 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 Whetstone

Do I need planning permission for french doors in Whetstone?

Some parts of Whetstone fall within conservation areas, so we check with Barnet Council before quoting, particularly near the High Road and Totteridge. 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 Whetstone?

Lead times vary by product and workload — confirmed with your quote. Being about 6.0 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 Whetstone, 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 6.0 miles from Whetstone. We can also bring samples to your home in Whetstone at the free survey.
