French door grilles are usually a pair of retractable grilles that fold to each side of the doors and meet in the centre, where they lock together. They protect the glazing and the meeting stiles, which are the weak point of many French doors.
Choices you can make
- Set back to clear inward-opening doors
- Locks keyed alike with other grilles in the house
- Optional shoot bolts top and bottom
- Pair of leaves meeting at a central lock
- Matches white, black or wood-effect frames
- Small stacks at each side of the doors

One side or both
A centre-meeting pair lets you open one side for everyday use.
Rules that apply in England
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission, because it does not materially change how the building looks from outside. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.
Bedroom and escape windows
Approved Document B (fire safety) expects many habitable rooms in houses, especially first-floor rooms, to have an emergency escape window with an unobstructed opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a release that opens from inside without a key.

French door grilles in Long Eaton: questions
Can you survey in Long Eaton and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Long Eaton, Ilkeston, Nottingham and elsewhere in Derbyshire are booked around installer availability.
How long does it take to fit?
Usually two to three hours once the grilles arrive.
Can French door grilles open one side only?
Yes. Each leaf runs independently, so you can open one side and leave the other closed.
My French doors open inwards. Can I still have a grille?
Yes. The grille is set back from the doors so they can swing open, or fitted outside if there is no room inside.
