French Doors FAQs
What are the benefits of French doors?
Window World of Joliet’s French Doors offer elegant design, impressive energy efficiency, and maximum natural light transmittance. Homeowners love them because they’re a convenient, timeless way to incorporate your patio and deck into your living space.
How are French doors constructed?
A French door is crafted using several lites, or expanses of glass that extend the full height of the door. You can enhance their appeal with decorative grills positioned between double-pane glass or placed atop a single pane. For an added touch of sophistication, intricate patterns can be etched into the glass.
Typically, French doors are designed to swing inward, allowing both sides to open, rather than just one.
Do French doors allow light inside your home?
Absolutely. Our French doors are highly sought after not only for their aesthetic elegance but also for their ability to illuminate your space, even when closed. They create a sense of openness and seamlessly connect your indoor areas with the outdoors.
What are French doors?
French doors are characterized by their elongated, rectangular glass panes that extend across the entire door surface. While they are often classified as patio doors, both panels operate like a traditional door. French doors are an excellent choice for enhancing the natural light in a room.
How do you measure French doors?
To accurately measure your French doors, begin by taking measurements from the interior of the door opening. Next, record the width, length, and height of the door frame. Since both doors swing open, it’s also important to measure the width of their swing area.
How do you lock French doors?
To secure French doors, simply utilize the Window World Multi-point lock system, which provides an enhanced level of protection.
Do French doors have screens?
Typically, French doors do not feature screens as part of their original design. Nevertheless, you can easily add a screen to your French doors, allowing you to keep them open while preventing insects from entering your space.
Do French doors open in or out?
French doors can open either inward or outward. When you choose Window World of Joliet for your installation, we set your doors to open inward for a smooth transition from room to room.
How do you hang curtains on French doors?
To properly hang curtains on French doors, it’s essential to choose curtains that are longer than the window itself, allowing them to cover both the top and bottom of the glass pane. After that, simply follow the standard curtain installation steps by mounting a curtain rod and securing the curtains to it.
