Where does the name come from?


Bigger glass areas were intended to maximize natural lighting as indoor lighting was limited to candles, lamps and furnaces. Neighboring countries were quick to adopt this design, giving credit to the French Renaissance by calling it, quite simply, “French doors”


French doors are ideal for warm summer days. You can easily bring the outdoors inside with such a door.


 French doors are primarily 2 panes all glass, these types of doors can bring in huge amounts of natural light.


They are extremely functional, but the primary function of a French door is its aesthetic features.
