Benefits of French Sliding and Swing Doors in Home Remodels

French sliding and swing doors play a significant role in adding a sophisticated ambiance to your home. The two layers of doors adorned with glass panels provide enhanced insulation and allow natural light into your home. Replacing conventional doors with French sliding and swing doors can increase your property value and create a beautiful aesthetic during remodeling.

These unique doors offer the advantage of space-saving design, making them an ideal choice for smaller rooms or compact spaces. Plus, our high quality doors from Simonton and Masonite provide outstanding durability and weather resistance, further adding to your peace of mind.

French Doors to Brighten Every Room

French Sliding Door

These doors combine the traditional charm of French doors with the convenience of a sliding mechanism, making them perfect for rooms with limited space. Their wide glass panes not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of your home but also improve its energy efficiency by allowing for natural heating and lighting. Ideal for patios, balconies, and garden access, French sliding doors represent a blend of functionality and sophistication, providing a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living spaces.

French Swing Door

Unlike their sliding counterparts, swing doors offer a classic open-and-close mechanism that adds to the grandeur of entryways, connecting spaces with grace and fluidity. With the ability to open inward or outward, these doors provide flexibility in design and usage. Their large glass panels invite ample natural light into the room and offer expansive views of the outdoor surroundings. French swing doors are a testament to luxurious living, perfect for creating a statement entrance or enhancing the connection between interior and outdoor areas.

French Sliding & Swing Doors FAQs

What if the Track and Wheels On My French Door Are Old?

When it comes to ensuring the integrity and beauty of your French doors, recognizing when they need attention is critical. Wear and tear on components like tracks and wheels can significantly impact their performance and energy efficiency. However, this doesn't always necessitate a full-door replacement. Our dedicated specialists at Alcor are experts in diagnosing the precise issues with your French doors. During our comprehensive assessment, we'll meticulously evaluate the extent of damage or wear to determine the best course of action--- whether it's a strategic repair or a complete replacement.

How Do French Doors Open?

French doors, often characterized by their double door design and glass panes extending most of their length, traditionally open from the center. This creates a wide and inviting doorway, adding a touch of elegance to the entrance of any room or outdoor area.

However, we at Alcor realize every home and homeowner's needs are unique. Our French door options come in several styles, including swing doors that can open inward or outward and sliding French doors that slide along a track to save space.

Why Do They Call Them French Doors?

The term "French door" dates back to the 17th century during the Renaissance period in France. Architects at the time were heavily influenced by the idea of letting in more natural light, which led to the design of doors with glass panes covering most of their length. These doors were essentially an extension of the window, designed to allow maximum light into rooms while still functioning as a door. With its distinctive glass panes, the resulting double door design became widely popular and is what we now know as the French door.
