Durable Double Door Construction

All of our internal French doors are manufactured with resilient materials to meet our high standards. Before buying interior French doors for your home, explore these core construction options to balance weight, budget and acoustic performance:

• Solid-core internal French doors use heavy timbers, mimicking the solid feel of external French doors, boosting interior home security while dampening noise between rooms. 

• Semi-solid-core French doors offer a robust middle ground for homeowners seeking a similar premium feel with less weight. 

• Hollow-core double internal doors offer a budget-friendly alternative and are perfect for areas where seamless installation is your priority, as they hang with ease.

Traditional & Contemporary Styles

While popular for their classic design, our French internal doors offer modern twists, with a variety of designs and glazing options to suit your needs.

You can easily pair these systems with matching door hardware to complement your preference.

• Flush French doors: Offer a completely flat, smooth profile that complements modern living spaces with a clean, minimalist aesthetic. 

• Panelled French doors: Feature decorative panels, ranging from traditional square inlays to more intricate designs, adding depth, detail and character to your home. 

• Glass French doors: Our glazed internal French doors feature glass inlays in various configurations, sharing light between adjoining rooms while blocking out cold draughts and loud noise. 

Glazing Options

Explore a selection of glazed internal French door options, including full-length glazed panels for maximum light or smaller, “peekaboo” panels for a more subtle effect. In addition to our clear glass, we supply these elegant interior double doors with:

• Reeded glass: Ribbed glass textures channel light across the surface, creating a striking linear pattern while keeping the glass transparent and open.

• Frosted glass: Opaque glass panels block visibility entirely, making them a popular choice for home offices or bedrooms where privacy is essential.

• Bevelled glass: Angled, precision-cut edges catch light from nearby windows, pulling extra brightness indoors while adding classic architectural detail.

• Tinted glass: Subtle, smoky tones soften harsh glare while injecting a bold, distinctive element into your room’s layout.

• Designer glass: Intricate patterns and unique textures upgrade standard doorways, achieving a bespoke look with total ease. 

Note: Unlike frosted glass, our tinted and reeded options are not privacy glass.

Premium Finishes

Choose from various high-quality finishes to match your home’s aesthetic and practical needs:

• Unfinished: Available in rich walnut or warm oak veneer, ready for you to stain or paint in your own style.

• Pre-finished double doors: Arrive ready to install, requiring no extra work.

FAQs About Interior French Doors

Explore our answers to some common questions about our interior French doors for sale.

What are the benefits of interior French doors?

Interior French doors add elevated style and practicality, and can even work well in smaller rooms with limited space where their size prevents tight squeezes.

Key benefits include:

• Maximised light: Glass panels let natural light flow between rooms, creating an open, airy feel.

• Enhanced style: Indoor French doors frame entryways with an attractive, timeless design that elevates any room’s decor.

•  Seamless separation: French doors divide rooms with ease, providing privacy while maintaining a visual connection. 

• Versatility: These double doors are perfect for most areas in your interior, including dining rooms, kitchens, home offices or hallways.

What safety features do glazed internal French doors have?

All our glazed French internal doors are fitted with impact-tested glass, certified to BS EN 12600 in compliance with British standards. This strict industrial test measures resistance by dropping a heavy pendulum weight onto the pane to simulate severe bodily impact. 

These double doors feature family-safe, toughened glass built to handle heavy everyday life, with characteristics including:

• Impact resistance: Offers up to 5 times the bending strength of standard glass, so it withstands everyday household bumps without breaking.

• Safe fragmentation: If the glass ever takes a severe hit, it crumbles into small, blunt pieces rather than dangerous, sharp shards, protecting your home.

• Thermal endurance: Resists sudden temperature changes far better than basic float glass, keeping your layout safe as heat transfers between rooms.

What French interior door sizes do you offer?

Our internal French door sizes range from 1981 mm x 1066 mm to 2040 mm x 1652 mm, fitting tight layout gaps or grand architectural walkways on your property. Find the right opening width and frame height for your interior space with this choice of double door dimensions: 

• 35 mm-thick options offer a lightweight, traditional fit that swings open without encroaching on precious floor space.

• 40-mm-thick options provide the heavy wood mass required to anchor large glass panels firmly in place.

Note: All door pair sizes are "overall" for the pair, not for each door leaf. We cannot stress enough that the sizes are for both halves.

What is the difference between pairmaker and rebated doors?

Pairmaker doors are two single doors joined by a “pairmaker” strip to form a pair. This system lets you decide which door opens first and which way they swing, giving you more flexibility in how the doors are fitted.

In joinery, a “rebate” means one edge of the door is cut so the two doors can overlap neatly when closed. With rebated French doors, one door is the primary and the other the secondary, meaning you’ll usually open one first. These can be fitted to open outwards or inwards.

How do I maintain Internal French doors?

Many homeowners assume double doors require constant upkeep, but keeping your fixtures in top condition is remarkably straightforward.

Follow these simple maintenance tips to preserve their performance and visual appeal:

• Dust the timber panels with a dry, lint-free cloth twice a year to prevent buildup. If you notice sticky finger marks, wipe them down using a tightly wrung-out sponge with mild, soapy water.

• Spray a standard glass cleaner onto the glass panels, then wipe down with a clean microfibre cloth or a traditional newspaper. Work in circular motions to avoid unsightly smear marks.

• Lubricate hinges and pivots with a light machine oil or silicone-based spray twice a year. This keeps the swing running smoothly and prevents squeaking or stiffness.

Specialist tip: Avoid splashing excess water onto wooden frames during cleaning, as trapped moisture can cause timber to warp. Keeping your glass clean and the hardware lubricated will take care of the rest.
