What Are French Doors?
Also known as double doors or hinged patio doors, French doors are a great way to add sophistication and versatility to homes. They typically feature large glass panels within a hinged frame, opening either as a single door or as a pair of doors. Unlike sliding patio doors, French doors swing open, providing wide, unobstructed entrances when both doors are opened.
Available in both in-swing and out-swing configurations, French doors provide flexibility to suit your space and preferences. In-swing French doors are perfect for homes where exterior space is limited while out-swing French doors maximize interior floor space and offer excellent weather protection. Each style can be customized with stunning hardware options to complement your home’s aesthetic with subtle visual points of interest.

Our satisfied customers say it best and keep coming back. Over 50% of our business comes from referrals and returning customers like you.
The communication was excellent from beginning to end. The installers answered questions if we had them and they cleaned up their mess after they were finished. We can definitely tell a difference since the installation.
I have always been happy with Next Door and Window. In my recent project, sliding glass doors and a few more windows, they once again did an excellent job with fabulous workers who made sure I was 100% satisfied!
We had 3 Marvin Infinity windows and a patio door installed. The installation was difficult, they had to remove an old bay window & create a new wall for the windows & they created a new opening for the patio door. They did an amazing job and it turned out perfectly! Gary helped on every step along the way to make sure we were happy & satisfied with the final product. We will definitely be using Next for our future window replacements.
2nd time posting this review. Outstanding service, outstanding products. I’m very pleased with the new windows and doors. The crew worked on the coldest three days of the year, I’m grateful for their commitment and excellent work.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are French doors energy efficient?
Our French doors are engineered with superior energy efficiency, featuring advanced insulation, argon gas-filled glass panes, and multiple Low-E coating options. The tight seal created by their swing operation, combined with expansion- and contraction-resistant Ultrex fiberglass frames helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures and reduce energy costs.
Do both doors open on French patio doors?
Our French patio doors can be customized with either active double doors (where both panels open) or an active/inactive configuration (where one panel remains fixed). This flexibility allows you to choose the functionality that best suits your space and lifestyle needs while maintaining the classic French door aesthetic.
What’s the difference between French doors and sliding doors?
While sliding doors glide horizontally along a track system, French doors operate on hinges like traditional doors, swinging either inward or outward. This classic swinging design of French doors creates a wider opening when both doors are open.
How do French doors open?
French doors are versatile in their operation, available in both in-swing and out-swing configurations to suit your space requirements. For those seeking a different option, we also offer sliding French patio doors that combine traditional French door styling with space-saving sliding operation.
