Style ideas for French doors

French doors create a lovely focal point in your home. Letting in lots of lovely natural light, they're mounted on hinges on either side allowing them to swing open outwards so you can enjoy plenty of fresh air and beautiful outdoor views. When it comes to choosing window treatments for your French doors, there are a few things you'll need to consider to really make the most of these features. We’re here with plenty of solutions that’ll give you practical benefits as well as stylish results. Let's get into it.

If your French doors are in regular use, you should consider Perfect Fit blinds. These are a no drill solution for uPVC doors. They simply clip into place in your window frame and the blind sits neatly within this frame.

The great advantage of these blinds is that they become an integral part of the door, allowing you to open and close your door easily. Roller, Pleated and metal Venetian blinds can all be fitted into a Perfect Fit frame.

Fully-lined curtains are a lovely option for providing a snug and cosy atmosphere and preventing any draughts.

If you’ve limited space to hang curtains either side of a door, try having a single, wider curtain that pulls completely to one side. It’ll create clear access to the outdoors during the day, and when closed give you a wall of warmth at night.

Curtains are also a great blackout solution if your doors are letting in too much light.

Shutters are another great choice for your doors. Door shutters use specially made tracks, allowing you to fold them back neatly and compactly when not in use.

A stylish and practical solution, they’re perfect for light and privacy control. Open your shutters during the day to extend the space outside, and close them at night for privacy and a secure feel.

With excellent insulating properties, they'll help to maintain a steady temperature in your home all year round too.
