French doors and combination units
French doors refer to any pair of glazed doors that open in or out. They are economical, secure and watertight if installed correctly and have been the preferred access to verandahs since colonial times. Originally made 1070mm wide as a pair, they expanded to 1170mm after WW1 and are now stocked in 620, 720 & 820 widths giving metric frame sizes 1300, 1500 and 1700mm wide respectively. Most french doors open out and, if positioned correctly, swing 180° to stack flat against the outside wall. It is often overlooked that standard french doors only provide ventilation when open and are therefore not suitable as the sole joinery in bedrooms etc unless fanlights or other ventilation options allow the space to breathe. French doors are easy to flyscreen with retractable or joinery screens and can be simply fitted with security mesh doors in vulnerable locations.
Combination units (combos) are easily the most maintenance free and economical solution for openings up to 3300mm wide and beyond. Typically involving a pair of french doors in the centre with fixed or double hung sashes to the side, combination units are simple, versatile and durable. The Woodworkers pay special attention to the alignment of all timber sections and the proportion of the glazing panels.
