Made-to-Measure Replacement French Doors

Operating from our workshops in Berkshire, all our new French doors are made to measure to your requirements. We can either match the style of your existing external doors or provide a design to your precise requirements.

High-Quality, Sustainable French Doors
The quality of the timber that is used in your wooden French doors is of paramount importance to the lifespan and performance of your doors.
We recommend using Accoya, which is a sustainable timber, for your timber French doors. Accoya is reasonably forgiving of any subsequent lack of maintenance or neglect and is designed to last a lifetime, coming with a 50-year anti-rot guarantee.
All our bespoke French doors have at least three factory-applied coats of paint comprising base-coat primer, preservative, undercoat, and a white semi-gloss topcoat finish. We can also offer a large range of coloured paints, as well as bespoke, plain, and waxed hand-coated finishes, if required, at an extra cost. Find out more about our paint and stain finishes.
We also offer a range of ironmongery options with our French doors, including polished brass, antique brass, polished chrome, and satin chrome.
In addition to wooden French doors, we also manufacture and install new sash windows, casement windows, external bi-folding doors and front doors, alongside offering a draught-proofing service for timber windows.
