French Doors in Poole
Much of Upper Parkstone was built in Victorian times, and Lower Parkstone around Ashley Cross has some of the most sought-after older houses in Poole. On homes of that age, a pair of French doors often keeps the balance of the back of the house better than a wide bifold.
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 comes with our Storm Guard threshold, so the doors are weather-sealed without a big step to trip over. Kenny surveys every opening himself and our own team does every installation.
French Doors for Parkstone and Beyond
Close to the harbour, wind-driven rain is a real test for any door, which is why a well-sealed threshold and a properly fitted frame matter so much. We are about 22 miles away in Shaftesbury and work right across Poole, from Hamworthy to Broadstone.
Ashley Cross is one of Poole’s fifteen conservation areas. If your home is in a conservation area or is listed, Kenny will advise whether BCP Council needs to approve the doors before anything is ordered.
Our Range
French Doors
French doors in uPVC, aluminium or our R9 timber-look range, with Georgian bars and side panels to suit a Victorian house in Parkstone or a newer home in Broadstone.
French Doors Fitted Properly in Poole
Poole homes take a battering from the weather off the harbour, so fitting has to be done properly. We keep our numbers manageable to make sure it is.
Fitted by Our Own Team
Our own team fits your doors, works cleanly and carefully in your home and takes all the old frames and waste away afterwards.
Secure as Standard
Every pair we install has toughened safety glass, high-security cylinders and multi-point locking, included as standard.
FENSA Registered
Under our FENSA registration we certify the installation to Building Regulations, and the certificate is sent on to you.
French Doors in Poole: Your Questions Answered
Which areas around Poole do you cover?
We cover Poole, Parkstone, Broadstone, Canford Cliffs, Lilliput, Hamworthy, Upton and Sandbanks, along with Shaftesbury and the surrounding area.
Do I need planning permission for French doors in Poole?
Usually you will not, as replacing a back door or window with French doors is normally permitted development. Poole has fifteen conservation areas, Ashley Cross among them, and if your home is in one, is listed, or the opening is being widened, BCP Council or Building Control may need to agree. Flats follow different rules. Kenny will check for you.
Should my French doors open inwards or outwards?
Outward opening is the most popular choice in Poole. When the wind blows in off the harbour, it pushes the doors tighter onto their seals, and when open they sit back against the wall. Inward opening can suit a first-floor balcony. Kenny will explain both on his visit.
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?
The price depends on the size of the doors, the material and colour, the glass, any side panels and whether the opening changes. Every pair is made to measure, so Kenny surveys before he quotes. There is no charge, and like for like, we are rarely beaten on price.
