French Doors

A Deco Design Center french door can add a stylish look to any home. French doors, often known also as French windows, are doors that have multiple small windows or one large window "one light" into the full length of the door. These windows are sometimes called "lights". Since French doors provide a minimal amount of privacy, their purpose is primarily decorative in nature and french doors are usually found in the back of the house heading out to the back porch or patio. However, they are a popular choice among home owners who are looking for ways to bring more natural light into their homes or home office.

A divided lite French door is the traditional type of French door. These doors are assembled from multiple pieces of small clear glass. These French doors also have mullions or moldings, or decorative structural elements designed to divide adjacent window panes. Traditional French doors are typically made from hardwood such as mahogany, knotty alder and oak among others. Exterior doors done in a French style are different from traditional French doors because they are often made of double-pane thicker glass to provide improved insulation. Deco Design Center french doors usually have a decorative iron or aluminum grille embedded between the panes, although some French doors of this type have grilles that are superimposed over of a single pane of glass, Deco Design Center can also use hinged ironwork grills to unscrew and open to allow cleaning the glass much easier. Exterior French doors can be one-piece solid doors or patio sliding doors, depending upon the intended use.

In some cases, a French door can even be bolted into place to act as a substitute for an interior wall.
