Heritage French Doors: Bringing the Outdoors In
The very best French doors should transform a simple entrance into something magnificent, bringing together time-honoured design with smart modern engineering.
Here at Timberlook, we’ve poured our passion for period details into creating heritage French doors that do more than just open and close. Our door system makes a statement, blurs the boundaries between home and garden, and floods your interiors with natural light.
So what makes Timberlook flush French doors so special?
The finer details
Our heritage-style doors showcase authentic features that set them apart – deep bottom rails, discreetly welded joints and slim sightlines that mirror original timber designs. Each door is crafted to capture the character of period properties, making them ideal for conservation areas, yet they are equally impressive in modern homes.
At Timberlook, we take just as much pride in the smaller details of our doors as the bigger features: our flush doors (available as a single door or as part of a French door set) feature elegant hardware, and are available with ‘Swan-neck’ or ‘Heritage’ handles for a traditional aesthetic.
Heritage doors tailored to your home
Whether you’re updating a Victorian villa or adding character to a new-build property, our heritage French doors can be customised to suit your vision.
You can customise your doors with a curated selection of heritage-inspired colours, including classic woodgrain foils like Irish Oak and Rosewood. We have over 25 different colour combinations available for interior and exterior faces, matching your indoor décor and complementing your home’s external appearance. Some of our most popular options include classic White, sophisticated Pebble Grey and striking Anthracite!
Beautiful but practical: thermal efficiency
These doors may look traditional, but they’re packed with modern innovations. The high-security multi-point locking systems offer peace of mind, and advanced weather seals keep the British weather firmly outside.
Our doors work hard to keep your home comfortable all year round; thanks to advanced double glazing and insulating uPVC chambers, our doors offer U-values of 1.4, keeping your home warm throughout even the coldest of winters and cool throughout the hot summer days.
The doors operate smoothly on premium hardware, opening fully to create a generous connection with your garden or patio. Low thresholds ensure easy access, and our innovative cleverly concealed trickle vents provide controlled ventilation when needed.
Bringing the outside in
One of the most remarkable benefits of our heritage French doors is their ability to transform the feel of a room.
The large glazed panels draw in maximum natural light, making spaces feel larger and more connected to the outside world. During summer, they can be thrown wide open to create a wonderful indoor-outdoor living space, perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying your garden. We’ve also recently updated our door system with a mechanical midrail section, which helps to further replicate traditional timber door designs of the past.
How should heritage French doors be maintained?
For heritage French doors, a simple wipe with a damp cloth to remove dirt build-up is all that’s needed to keep your doors looking good as new for years to come. Our heritage French doors combine robust construction with low-maintenance uPVC. Unlike timber, uPVC doesn’t won’t rot, warp or require repainting.
The perfect balance
What makes our heritage French doors truly special is their ability to bridge the gap between traditional aesthetics and modern living. They offer the elegant proportions and detailed features of period doors, and yet still deliver the security, energy efficiency and ease of use that today’s homeowners expect.
Whether you’re renovating a period property or adding character to a modern home, heritage French doors provide that perfect touch of classic beauty, while also offering the performance that modern homes require.
Timberlook uPVC timber-effect French flush doors showcase a perfect balance of traditional aesthetics and modern performance. Ideal for blending seamlessly with both contemporary new builds and heritage properties, these doors provide elegance, durability, and energy efficiency, making them suitable for trade professionals and conservation projects.
