What sets our french doors apart in Princes Risborough.
Rebated Meeting Stile
The master and slave leaves close on a properly rebated overlap — not the flat butt-joint of conventional systems — sealing against draught, driving rain and forced entry.
Master & Slave Locking
Multi-point hook lock on the master leaf, shootbolt tops-and-bottoms on the slave. Slave sits fixed for daily use; both open together for parties and moving furniture.
Fully Glazed by Default
Single large pane per leaf, or Georgian-bar 15-light doors for period elevations. Any glass — obscured, laminated, acoustic — available.
Available in Three Materials
Painted timber-look composite for period cottages, thermally-broken aluminium for contemporary rear extensions, or A-rated uPVC for straightforward replacement.
Side-Lights & Fanlights
Add narrow side lights and an arched fanlight above and the pair reads as a full glazed threshold — the standard for garden-facing rooms.
What Princes Risborough homeowners tell us.
"The orangery has become the heart of the house. Warm in January, cool in July. Every trade on site was courteous and clean."
"We spoke with three installers. They were by a mile the most professional. The composite front door still looks showroom two winters on."
"Heritage flush casements across the whole cottage. From the road you'd swear they were painted timber — but with modern thermal performance."
Common questions from Princes Risborough homeowners.
- Do you install french doors in Princes Risborough?
- Yes — South East Windows & Doors installs french doors across Princes Risborough (HP27) and the wider Buckinghamshire area every week. Every project is surveyed, manufactured and installed by our own teams.
- How long does french doors installation take in Princes Risborough?
- Most Princes Risborough projects run to a two-to-eight week lead time from signed quote to install, depending on manufacture. Once on site, a typical french doors install completes in one to five working days with full dust-sheet protection and clean-down.
- Do you handle conservation-area planning in Princes Risborough?
- Many of our Buckinghamshire projects sit within the Chilterns AONB or conservation areas. Our heritage flush casements and timber-effect finishes are frequently accepted where UPVC once wasn't. We prepare planning-ready drawings with matched sightlines, glazing-bar depths and hardware for Princes Risborough projects that require them.
- What guarantee covers french doors in Princes Risborough?
- Every french doors installation in Princes Risborough is covered by our insurance-backed 10-year guarantee — parts, labour and finish. Aftercare is direct with the installing team, not a call centre.
- Can I see recent french doors work near Princes Risborough?
- Yes — we can share recent french doors case studies from across Buckinghamshire, including projects in Monks Risborough, Whiteleaf and neighbouring towns. Ask your surveyor at the on-site visit.
- French doors or bifold doors?
- French doors are the traditional answer for openings up to about 1.8m — a pair of full-glazed leaves that swing open on a rebated stile. Beyond that width, bifolds or sliders take over. French doors also look right on period elevations where bifolds don't.
- Do both leaves open?
- Yes. The slave leaf is held closed by shootbolts top and bottom; release them and it swings open for parties, garden furniture and moving-in day. The master leaf has the multi-point lock and everyday handle.
- Are they secure with two leaves?
- Yes — the rebated meeting stile plus master multi-point plus slave shootbolts are collectively more secure than a single door. Every French door we fit is PAS 24 accredited.
