French doors are a really popular choice with our customers. They let in loads of natural light and give easy access to gardens or patios. At Applewood Joinery, we make bespoke French doors to fit your property perfectly. Whether you want sidelights on either side or set within a larger frame, they will look beautiful either way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Timber Options<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

At Applewood Joinery we use a wide range of timbers for French doors. These include, Sapele, Oak and Unsorted Redwood (softwood). Depending on the timber we can paint or stain to your exact request and make them look exactly how you would like. Being bespoke means we can make them any size or shape, so you\u2019re not stuck with standard doors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Choose Bespoke French Doors?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Bespoke French doors are made to measure, so they fit your space perfectly. They\u2019re strong and secure and keep heat in thanks to quality timber and proper seals. You can also choose how many panels of glass you want, alongside the finish you request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Different Styles<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

French doors come in a few different styles to suit your space. You can have them with sidelights either side for extra light, you could also have opening casements within the sidelights. Setting within a full frame gives a classic look and having the doors themselves shaped with features like arched tops give a lovely look. Whatever style you choose, we make them to fit perfectly, so they look great and work well in your home or office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maintaining Your French Doors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We can only do so much once the doors are fitted. After that, it\u2019s down to you to keep them looking their best. Lubricate the hinges and locks now and then, wipe down the timber and glass, and touch up with paint if needed. A little care goes a long way to keeping your doors looking great for years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
