Why Aluminium French doors are having a moment

French doors are a patio door classic that you’ll find in many homes across the UK. Dating back to the 16th Century, French doors are sometimes seen as best suited to traditional homes and period properties – but a surge in popularity for triple glazed French doors and aluminium French doors are proving otherwise!

At SILKA, we’ve taken a classic style, and added a little ‘je ne sais quoi’, to create the best aluminium French doors for modern homes. Allowing easy access to the garden and a great way to ventilate your home on warmer days, simple yet stylish aluminium patio doors have made a significant comeback in 2024. SILKA offers reinvented, energy efficient Aluminium French Doors with triple glazing at no extra cost, the highest levels of security, an automatic multi-point lock, anti-finger trap, and edge-to-edge insulation through our Thermafill® technology.

 

Why are French doors different?

French doors have been a mainstay in home design for such a long time because they offer so many very real benefits. On top of what we’ve already covered, French doors can open outwards or inwards, dependent on space. This is particularly beneficial in smaller rooms, so the doors don’t intrude on living space, and you’re left with a far more functional and versatile layout.

Opting for aluminium French doors is also a smart investment for property value, as potential buyers often appreciate the timeless elegance and flexibility they bring to a home. SILKA’s triple glazing, super-insulation and futureproof benefits will only enhance that further.

 

Why choose aluminium?

Aluminium is the perfect material for modern French doors, as it is sleek and lightweight, but still very high strength. At SILKA we use aluminium for French doors and our full range of products because it means we can go big on glass, create the slimmest sightlines, and maximise the natural light in your home. It is also a low maintenance material, and with our strokable SILKtouch fine textured surface, cleaning is a breeze.
