We install two main types of French doors across Dublin homes:
Perfect for rear patios and gardens. Zero maintenance, 15+ colour options, A-rated efficiency. Popular in Rathmines, Raheny, and Clontarf homes.
French doors are made to measure, but most Dublin openings fall into familiar sizes. A standard two-panel set needs a structural opening of roughly 1,200–1,800mm wide; anything wider takes side-screens or a three-panel layout, and period homes with narrow 900–1,000mm openings usually suit a single door with side-light instead. Height is typically 2,000–2,100mm. At survey we check three things that decide the final spec: the structural opening width (brick-to-brick), whether the lintel can carry a wider opening if you want more glass, and threshold detail for level access. Widening an existing window or door opening is routine work for our team — we handle the steel lintel, plastering and making good inside and out as part of the fixed quote.
Available for Dublin installations: Monday-Saturday, with early morning or weekend slots to avoid traffic.

SEAI eligibleThe modern French doors are a classic combination of tradition and modernism made with modern crafting methods that provide a classic and decent touch. Despite being beautiful to look at, these doors are also extremely energy efficient that can cut up energy costs by up to 10% while keeping the internal and external environment away from mixing. They are equipped with glass packages to make French doors energy efficient, and the grilles are installed on or between glass panels. Also, French wood patio doors are beautiful, energy-efficient, and easy to clean and maintain.

French doors transform Dublin properties—from Victorian townhouses in Rathmines to modern semi-ds in Raheny. Here's what Dublin homeowners gain from professional French door installation.
Yes. Estate agents report French doors add €5,000-€8,000 to Dublin property valuations, particularly in competitive neighbourhoods like Ranelagh, Terenure, and Drumcondra. Why buyers pay more:
Critical for Dublin's overcast climate. French doors flood interiors with 40% more natural light compared to standard windows, reducing reliance on artificial lighting during Ireland's short winter days. Dublin-specific light advantages: Absolutely. A-rated French doors reduce heating costs by 15-20% in typical Dublin homes, paying for themselves in 5-7 years through lower gas/oil bills. Energy-saving features:
Average Dublin 3-bed semi spends €1,800/year on heating. Triple-glazed French doors reduce this by €270-360 annually. Homeowners in Raheny, Killester, and Sutton report noticeably warmer kitchens after installation.
