How much should I budget for French door grilles in Leeds?
Most French door grilles in Leeds fall within £954 to £2,034 including VAT (£795 to £1,695 plus VAT) per pair of doors for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before anything is ordered.
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.
What you can specify
- Small stacks at each side of the doors
- Optional shoot bolts top and bottom
- Low-profile floor track
- Pair of leaves meeting at a central lock
- Matches white, black or wood-effect frames

- Juliet balconies on upper floors (with escape in mind)
- Dining rooms and kitchens
- Ground-floor flats
- French doors to gardens
What to think about first
Door swing
Inward-opening doors need the grille set back far enough to clear the leaves.
One side or both
A centre-meeting pair lets you open one side for everyday use.
Consents and safety: 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.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings need listed building consent for works that affect their character, which can include internal grilles and their fixings. In conservation areas, councils look closely at anything fitted to the outside. We recommend speaking to the council's conservation officer before ordering.

French door grilles in Leeds: questions
Can you survey in Leeds and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Leeds, Morley, Pudsey and elsewhere in West Yorkshire are booked around installer availability.
Can French door grilles open one side only?
Yes. Each leaf runs independently, so you can open one side and leave the other closed.
Do French door grilles need a floor track?
Usually a low-profile one, which keeps the grille rigid and is easy to step over.
Will the grille match my doors?
We powder-coat grilles in white, black, anthracite or a RAL colour close to your frames.
