Aluminium French doors, supplied and fitted

Aluminium French doors give you a pair of glazed doors that both open fully onto the garden, with slim frames that do not crowd a smaller opening. We supply and fit them across London, inside the M25 and in nearby towns such as Watford, Reading, Slough and Guildford, working from our base in Hayes. Every pair is made to measure, fitted by our team and covered by our 10-year installation guarantee.

When French doors make sense

Not every opening suits a wall of bifold or sliding glass. On a narrower opening, a bifold ends up mostly frame and a slider leaves half the gap covered. French doors open both leaves wide and leave the whole opening clear, which is why they remain one of the most practical doors for a dining room, a living room or a smaller extension.

They also suit houses where a large modern door would look out of place. A pair of slim aluminium French doors, perhaps with glazed side panels, sits comfortably on a Victorian or 1930s house as well as a new build.

Glass, security and Building Regulations

Glass in a door has to be safety glass under Building Regulations, so every French door we fit is glazed to suit. Beyond that, the glass can be chosen for the room: clearer views on a garden elevation, more privacy where the doors face a neighbour, or better control of heat on a sunny aspect. On security, Smart tests its systems to PAS 24, the UK security standard for doors and windows, and the doors are assembled the same way, with multi-point locking on the main leaf.

French doors or bifold doors?

If your opening is wide and you want the whole wall open in summer, look at our aluminium bifold doors. If the opening is narrower or the house is more traditional, French doors are often the better answer. For a steel-look pair with glazing bars, see our heritage aluminium windows and doors.

What affects the price

We do not publish prices. The price of aluminium French doors follows the size of the opening, any side panels or top light, the colour, the glass and the hardware, and whether the opening needs work before the doors go in. Send us your sizes and a photo and we will quote for your doors.
