French Doors in Bruton
Celia Fiennes called Bruton a very neat stone-built town, and that still holds true. Many of its houses have 17th, 18th or 19th-century fronts, often with much older buildings behind, and a pair of French doors usually suits them far better than a wide run of glass.
We fit French doors in uPVC, in our R9 timber-look range and in aluminium, with side panels and Georgian bars where they suit. Our sculptured French door system has our Storm Guard threshold, sealed against the weather without leaving a big step. Both doors open fully, so the room can be thrown open on a warm day.
French Doors for Bruton’s Stone Houses
Where a garden falls away towards the river, or sits above the house, the threshold and the step down need careful thought. Kenny surveys every opening himself, and our own team fits every set of doors.
Bruton’s conservation area includes well over a hundred listed buildings along the High Street, Patwell Street, Coombe Street and Quaperlake Street. If your home is one of them, Kenny will advise whether Somerset Council needs to approve the doors first.
Our Range
French Doors
Traditional French doors in uPVC, aluminium or our R9 timber-look range, scaled to the modest openings of Bruton’s stone houses, with Georgian bars and side panels as options.
French Doors Fitted Properly in Bruton
Bruton’s old houses reward patience, and so does our trade. We keep our workload sensible so that every job gets done right, and this is our promise.
Fitted by Our Own Team
The fitting is carried out entirely by our own team. They work neatly around old walls and floors, and when they finish the room is as clean as they found it.

On every pair we fit, you get multi-point locking, high-security cylinders and toughened safety glass without paying extra.
FENSA Registered
Each installation is certified under Building Regulations through our FENSA registration, and the certificate is sent on to you.
French Doors in Bruton: Your Questions Answered
Which areas around Bruton do you cover?
We cover Bruton, Wyke Champflower, Redlynch, Pitcombe, Shepton Montague, Brewham and Upton Noble, along with Shaftesbury and the surrounding area.
Do I need planning permission for French doors in Bruton?
Not usually. French doors replacing a back door or window are normally permitted development. Bruton is a little different from most towns, as its conservation area holds well over a hundred listed buildings, so it pays to check. Listed homes, conservation area doors facing a street and widened openings may need Somerset Council or Building Control, and Kenny will advise.
Should my French doors open inwards or outwards?
Outward opening doors are the usual choice in Bruton. They swing back to rest against the wall, keep the room clear and are pushed onto their seals by the weather. On a sloping plot or a tight courtyard, inward opening is sometimes more practical. Kenny will look at your garden levels and advise.
What guarantee do you give?
Frames and sealed glass units are guaranteed for 10 years, hardware for 2 years and our workmanship for 10 years, all backed by an insurance-backed guarantee through HomePro.
How much do French doors cost?
We price every pair individually, according to size, material, colour, glass and any side panels, and whether the opening needs work. Bruton’s stone openings are seldom standard, so a survey comes first. It is free, as is the written quotation, and on a genuine like-for-like quote we are rarely beaten on price.
