Triple glazed French doors in Kelso
From the first measure to the handover pack, we handle triple glazed French doors for homes in Kelso and the rest of the Scottish Borders.
A warmer kitchen-diner: less cold glass by the table. French doors are a pair of doors that open together, with no fixed centre post, usually leading to a garden or patio.
Winter light and glass choice in Kelso

Rules for french doors in Scotland
In Scotland, replacement external doors must meet 1.6 W/m²K. Replacing a door or window, frame and all, does not need a building warrant, but the work must still meet the building standards.
Before ordering: A replacement door on a house that looks similar to the existing one is generally permitted development; check with your council for flats and conservation areas, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
How it works
The surveyor measures every opening, checks ventilation, escape windows and safety-glass zones, and talks through styles. Your written quote lists each item with its glass build-up and U-value, and the price is fixed for that specification.
