Doors Designed Around Your Home
French Doors in Mere
Mere is about eight miles from Shaftesbury, and its stone townhouses and cottages are often better suited to a pair of French doors than a wide bifold. French doors let in plenty of light while keeping the proportions of an older building.
We fit French doors in uPVC, in our R9 timber-look range and in aluminium, with side panels and Georgian bars where they suit. Kenny surveys every opening himself and our own team does every installation.
French Doors for Mere’s Period and Newer Homes
In Zeals and Kilmington, where older cottages sit alongside more recent homes, French doors with side panels are a popular replacement for a tired patio door.
The centre of Mere is a conservation area with many listed buildings. If your home is one of them, Kenny will advise on whether Wiltshire Council needs to approve the doors.

French Doors in Mere: Your Questions Answered
Which areas around Mere do you cover?
We cover Mere, Zeals, Kilmington, Stourton, Maiden Bradley, East Knoyle, West Knoyle and Bourton, along with Shaftesbury and the surrounding area.
Do I need planning permission for French doors in Mere?
In most cases, no. French doors replacing a back door or window are usually permitted development. The centre of Mere is a conservation area with plenty of listed buildings, and a wider opening needs Building Control. If either affects your home, Wiltshire Council may need to give consent, and Kenny will tell you at the survey.
Should my French doors open inwards or outwards?
Most Mere customers choose doors that open out. They swing back flat against the wall, keep the floor clear and seal tighter in windy weather. Inward opening can be a good choice for a balcony or a small courtyard. Kenny will help you decide which suits your house.
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?
Cost depends on the dimensions, the material, the colour, the type of glass and any side panels, plus whether the opening needs work. Older stone openings in Mere are often irregular, so Kenny measures each one. The survey and quotation are free, and we are rarely beaten on a genuine like-for-like price.
