Ooh la la! French Doors

The term ‘French doors’ describes a pair of doors, hinged to the door jambs and opening in the middle, without a column in between. Traditionally assembled from individual small pieces of glass and mullions, or frames, they can transform rooms, extending them outdoors.

When used in place of a window, French doors bring in extra light, as well as giving access to the garden or verandah. Inside the house, they not only extend the rooms visually, but can create an extra-large opening, for those times when you want to be able to make use of a bigger area.
